About this property

Overview

Medblue FASE IV is a block of apartments and duplex penthouses in Altos de los Monteros, inland from the coast and above the AP-7 motorway. The homes range from 82 to 117 square metres with two or three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Terraces run from 33 square metres up to 114 square metres, so the larger units give you significant outdoor space. The setting is suburban, backed by forest and with views towards the sea and surrounding golf courses.

The complex sits 13 minutes by car from the nearest beach and 19 minutes from Marbella town centre. Greenlife Golf Marbella is 20 minutes away. Everything here requires a car. The immediate surroundings are quiet and elevated, which means you trade walkable convenience for seclusion and long views. The communal facilities include indoor and outdoor pools, a spa, a gym and a co-working space, so you have amenities on site that compensate for the distance from shops and restaurants.

This suits buyers who want a modern apartment with generous terraces and mountain air, and who are comfortable driving for daily errands and beach trips. The location works for families with children at English International College, which is 20 minutes away, and for golfers who prefer a peaceful base away from the coast. If you want to walk to the beach or to cafés, this will not suit you. If you value views, quiet and space over proximity to the seafront, the trade-off is worthwhile.

Medblue FASE IV: Frequently Asked Questions

The nearest beach is 2.7 kilometres away, which is 13 minutes by car. The development sits inland of the AP-7 motorway on elevated ground, so everything requires a vehicle. The distance gives you quiet and views but means you cannot walk to the coast.

Built areas run from 82 to 117 square metres, and terraces range from 33 to 114 square metres. The two-bedroom homes are the smaller end of that spectrum, while the three-bedroom duplex penthouses take the larger footprint and the biggest outdoor space. Every home has two bathrooms.

English International College is 5.1 kilometres away, about 20 minutes by car. Hospital Universitario Costa del Sol is closer at 13 minutes, and the nearest supermarket is 12 minutes. Marbella town centre is 19 minutes. Everything needs a car from this location.

The elevated position gives you sea views, views over surrounding golf courses, and views towards the forest that backs the development. Some homes also overlook the communal gardens and pool. The setting is quiet and open, with long sightlines across the Costa del Sol landscape.

The communal facilities include a gym, spa, indoor and outdoor pools and a co-working space, so you have what you need on site for extended stays. The airport is 56 minutes away, which works for lock-up-and-leave use but is not inconvenient for permanent residents. The setting is suburban and quiet rather than seasonal.

Buying off-plan in Altos De Los Monteros 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.
