About this property
Overview
Malaga Centrum is a 35 apartment block offering two bedroom, two bathroom homes that range from 83 to 113 square metres of built space. Each flat has an open plan kitchen and living room, a balcony of around six square metres, and air conditioning throughout. Laundry facilities sit inside the apartment rather than in a shared area. The kitchens and bathrooms are fitted with Modulnova units, an Italian brand. Parking spaces are available in the building, and residents have access to a rooftop pool and garden area that overlooks the street.
The development sits in Málaga Centro, 653 metres from Playa de San Andrés. You can walk to the beach in eight minutes. The building is positioned above the AP-7 motorway on the inland side, which gives you quick routes to both the coast and areas further inland. Málaga Airport is 24 minutes away by car, and the city centre takes eight minutes. A Carrefour Express is 98 metres from the building. The location works well for people who want to be near the beach without living on the seafront, and who value easy access to transport links and shops.
These apartments suit buyers who want a base in Málaga city with beach access, or professionals working in the centre who prefer not to rely entirely on a car. The flats are compact even at the larger end of the range, so families needing more than two bedrooms should look elsewhere. The rooftop facilities add outdoor space that the small balconies do not provide on their own, but the views are only to the street rather than to the sea or mountains.

Malaga Centrum: Frequently Asked Questions
How far is the beach from Malaga Centrum?
Playa de San Andrés is 653 metres away, which takes about eight minutes on foot. The beach is close enough to walk to regularly, though you cross the AP-7 motorway to reach it. A supermarket sits 98 metres from the building, so daily errands stay within walking distance too.
What size are the apartments?
The two bedroom flats range from 83 to 113 square metres of built space. All homes have two bathrooms and a balcony of around six square metres. The difference in floor area across the range means some units will have noticeably larger living rooms or bedrooms than others.
Is there parking at the building?
Parking spaces are available inside the building. Not every apartment automatically includes one, so you may need to secure a space separately depending on which unit you choose. The building sits in a central location where street parking would otherwise be difficult.
What facilities does the development have?
Residents share a rooftop pool and garden area that overlooks the street. Each apartment has its own laundry facilities rather than a communal area. The rooftop adds outdoor space beyond the small balconies, though the views face urban streets rather than the sea or green areas.
How far is Málaga Airport?
Málaga Airport is 24 minutes away by car. The building sits inland of the AP-7 motorway, which gives direct routes to the airport and makes the journey straightforward. The location works well for people who fly in and out regularly, either for holidays or work.
How does buying off-plan work in Spain?
Buying off-plan in Málaga Centro means reserving a property before or during construction. You pay a reservation deposit (typically €6,000 to €12,000), then sign a private purchase contract within 30 days and pay a further 10 to 20% of the purchase price. Staged payments follow the construction milestones. The final 60 to 70% is paid at notary completion when the keys are handed over.
Are my deposits protected if the developer goes bust?
Under Spanish law (Law 57/1968 and its 2015 successor), all off-plan deposits must be covered by a bank guarantee or insurance policy. Your lawyer must verify this before you pay any money. If the developer fails to deliver, you can claim 100% of your deposit plus 6% annual interest. Never transfer funds without a confirmed guarantee in your name.
What building guarantees come with a new-build?
Spanish law mandates three tiers: a 10-year structural guarantee (Seguro Decenal) for serious structural defects, a 3-year guarantee for habitability issues (waterproofing, insulation, installations), and a 1-year guarantee on finishes and fixtures. These run from the date the licence of first occupation (licencia de primera ocupación) is issued.
What taxes apply to new-build property in Spain?
New-build purchases are subject to 10% IVA (VAT) on the purchase price, plus 1.2% AJD (stamp duty) in Andalucía. Parking spaces or storage sold separately may attract 21% IVA. Add notary, land registry and legal fees (1 to 2%), budget 12 to 15% on top of the purchase price in total acquisition costs.
Can I customise finishes and layout before completion?
Most developers allow personalisation during the early construction phase, choices of floor tiles, kitchen units, bathroom fixtures, paint colours and sometimes layout tweaks. The window for changes is typically 3 to 6 months after signing the contract. Structural changes are rarely possible once work has started. Your sales representative will provide a customisation deadline and specification sheet.
How long will construction take?
Typical build time in coastal Spain is 18 to 30 months from licence grant to completion. Delays of 3 to 6 months are common due to weather, supply-chain or permit issues. Your contract should specify a longstop completion date and the compensation you are owed for any overrun. Always check whether the building licence has already been granted before reserving.
What should I check before signing an off-plan contract?
Key due-diligence points: (1) confirm the building licence is granted, not just applied for; (2) verify all deposits are bank-guaranteed in your name; (3) check the developer's track record and financial standing; (4) review the specification sheet and what is included in the price; (5) confirm the estimated completion date and longstop clause; (6) have an independent Spanish lawyer review the contract before you sign anything.
Do I need a NIE and Spanish bank account to buy off-plan?
Yes, both are required before the final notary signing. You can reserve with a passport, but your Spanish NIE (foreigner tax number) is needed for the private purchase contract and your Spanish bank account for the staged transfers. Your lawyer can obtain your NIE with a power of attorney in 2 to 4 weeks. Open the bank account on your first trip to Spain or remotely via certain Spanish banks.
Can non-residents get a Spanish mortgage?
Yes. Spanish banks lend to non-residents at typical LTVs of 60 to 70% of the lower of purchase price or valuation (vs 80% for residents). Rates are competitive with the rest of the eurozone. You will need 6 months of bank statements, tax returns and proof of income, pre-approval takes 2 to 4 weeks.
Should I get pre-approval before viewing?
Recommended for serious buyers. A mortgage in principle confirms your budget, signals credibility to sellers and shortens completion. We can introduce you to specialist non-resident mortgage brokers familiar with the local market.
What taxes will I pay buying a property in Málaga Centro?
Resale property in Andalucía: ITP (transfer tax) at 7%. New-build: 10% IVA + 1.2% AJD (stamp duty). Plus notary, land registry and legal fees of roughly 1 to 2%. Budget 10 to 13% on top of the asking price for total acquisition costs.
What ongoing costs should I expect?
Annual IBI (council tax) is typically 0.4 to 1.1% of cadastral value. Community fees on apartments and gated villas range €100 to €600/month depending on amenities. Non-resident owners pay an annual income tax based on cadastral value, plus utilities and home insurance.
Are agent fees paid by the buyer or seller?
In Spain the seller pays the agent commission (typically 3 to 6% + VAT), already baked into the asking price. Buyers do not pay agent fees on resale or new-build.
