About this property

Overview

Monte Sancha 28 - Key Ready is a new development of 2-bedroom duplexes for sale in Malaga, Costa del Sol, priced from €880,000 to €1,190,000. This is a boutique project of just three homes, of which two remain available: one duplex and one ground-floor unit. Both properties offer 180-degree Mediterranean Sea views from an elevated position in the Monte Sancha neighbourhood, a historic district that sits above the city centre. At this price point, the development targets buyers seeking a primary residence with character rather than a standard coastal apartment, particularly those drawn to Malaga's year-round urban lifestyle rather than resort living.

Built sizes range from 118 to 163 square metres across the two available units. Bathroom counts vary from one to three depending on the unit configuration, reflecting the difference between the duplex and ground-floor layouts. Interiors use Porcelanosa materials throughout, including flooring, tiling, and bathroom fittings. The homes include integrated home automation systems for lighting, climate control, and security. The architectural approach combines contemporary interiors with traditional elements that reference the neighbourhood's late 19th-century origins, when Monte Sancha was developed as Malaga's first garden suburb for wealthy merchants and industrialists.

Malaga Cathedral is 2.3 kilometres west, roughly six minutes by car or a 25-minute walk downhill. Monte Sancha attracts a mix of Spanish professionals, international remote workers, and northern European buyers who prefer city access to beachfront isolation. The neighbourhood retains many original villas alongside newer developments, and its hillside streets offer views but require a car for daily convenience. Malaga-Costa del Aeropuerto is 11 kilometres east, making this one of the few Costa del Sol new builds within a realistic commuting distance of the airport terminals. The city's growing reputation as a cultural and technology hub has pushed prices in central and near-central districts well above typical coastal averages, and this development reflects that premium.

These homes are completed and available for immediate occupation, hence the "Key Ready" designation. The standard Spanish new build payment structure does not apply here; buyers negotiate directly on the full purchase price with the developer. As with any property transaction in Spain, independent legal representation is essential to verify title, review the community statutes if applicable, and ensure all taxes and fees are correctly calculated. Monte Sancha has no commercial centre of its own, so daily shopping and services require a short drive to El Palo or into central Malaga.

Monte Sancha 28 - Key Ready: Frequently Asked Questions

Monte Sancha 28 - Key Ready duplexes range from €880,000 to €1,190,000, depending on size and exact specification. The price includes the property itself delivered key ready, private garage parking, and all fitted finishes. You're buying a completed home ready to move into immediately upon purchase completion.

Monte Sancha 28 - Key Ready is located in Malaga Este on the Costa del Sol, in a beachfront position right on the coast. This puts you within easy reach of Malaga city amenities while enjoying direct beach access and the relaxed coastal lifestyle the area is known for.

Monte Sancha 28 - Key Ready offers 2-bedroom duplexes with built sizes ranging from 118 m² to 163 m². The variation in size allows you to choose based on your needs and budget, with all units featuring the same high-quality finishes and beachfront location.

The standout feature of Monte Sancha 28 - Key Ready is its beachfront position with direct sea views from the properties. Every duplex also includes a private garage, which is a significant advantage in a busy coastal area where parking can be difficult to find.

Monte Sancha 28 - Key Ready is scheduled for completion on 23 December 2024, meaning the properties will be delivered key ready and available for immediate occupation from that date. This is a completed development, so there is no extended construction period to wait through.

Buying off-plan in Malaga Este 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
