About this property
Overview
Casa Gloria is a small apartment building in old town Marbella, above the AP-7 towards the mountains. The development sits close enough to walk to the beach in eight minutes but remains firmly in the historic town centre, where streets are narrow and parking is scarce. This location suits buyers who want the convenience of town living and sea access without needing a car for daily errands, though you will need one for everything else on the coast.
The apartments and duplexes range from 82 to 180 square metres, covering two and three bedrooms with one or two bathrooms. The smaller units work for couples or investors looking for a pied-à-terre in the old town, while the larger duplexes with private terraces appeal to families who want more space and outdoor living. All units face outward with sea, urban or street views, and the terraces are 19 square metres on average. Natural light is good throughout.
The building includes a commercial unit on the ground floor, which means some activity and noise at street level. The old town location brings character but also the usual trade-offs: limited parking, tourist footfall in summer, and older infrastructure around you. The AP-7 runs below the development, which adds road noise depending on which side you face. Families appreciate the six-minute drive to British International School and the walkable distance to Playa de la Bajadilla, while retirees and second-home buyers value the immediacy of shops, restaurants and the marina. This is not a resort setting or a gated community. It is town centre living with beach access and mountain views.

CASA GLORIA: Frequently Asked Questions
How far is the beach from Casa Gloria?
Playa de la Bajadilla is 0.7 kilometres away, an eight-minute walk through the old town. The beach sits at the western end of Marbella's historic centre, where the promenade meets the marina. You can reach it on foot for daily swims, but the route involves narrow streets and some gradient as you drop down from the development.
What size are the apartments?
The homes range from 82 to 180 square metres, with layouts covering two and three bedrooms and one or two bathrooms. The duplex units sit at the larger end of that range and include private terraces, while the smaller apartments suit singles or couples. Every unit has a 19-square-metre terrace on average, and all face outward to sea, street or the surrounding town.
What is within walking distance in Marbella old town?
Shops, restaurants and the marina are all walkable, with a supermarket 0.4 kilometres from the development. The old town location means daily errands do not need a car, and the beach is eight minutes on foot. The port is 0.6 kilometres away, reachable in five minutes by car or a longer walk through the centre. Everything else on the Costa del Sol requires driving.
Does Casa Gloria work for families with children?
British International School is 2.5 kilometres away, a six-minute drive inland. Hospital Quironsalud Marbella sits 0.9 kilometres from the development, reachable in five minutes by car. The old town setting puts families among tourists and restaurants rather than playgrounds, and parking near the building is limited. The larger duplex units suit family life better than the smaller apartments.
How far is Málaga Airport?
The airport is 39 kilometres east along the coast, about 51 minutes by car on the AP-7. That distance works well for a lock-up-and-leave property, though Marbella old town sees enough year-round activity to support permanent living. The motorway runs below the development on the seaward side, so road noise reaches some of the units depending on which way they face.
How does buying off-plan work in Spain?
Buying off-plan in Marbella 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 Marbella?
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.
