About this property

Overview

4-Bed Villa in Río Real is a new development of 4-bedroom villas for sale in Marbella, Costa del Sol, priced at €3,350,000. This is a single-unit off-plan project positioned within the Río Real Golf estate, an established residential enclave between Marbella town and the A-7 coastal motorway. The architecture follows a contemporary template with geometric volumes, floor-to-ceiling glazing, and natural wood cladding across the upper level, a design approach that has become standard in this price bracket but executed here with particular attention to the relationship between interior volume and external terrace space. The site itself sits within mature landscaping, which provides immediate visual privacy uncommon in new construction.

The villa measures 310 m² of built space across two levels, configured as four bedrooms and four bathrooms. The ground floor operates as an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen zone with full-height glass opening onto a terrace and garden. An infinity pool is included, alongside a sunken outdoor lounge area and pergola structure for shade. The upper level contains the bedroom suites, each with access to private terraces that overlook the surrounding greenery and, according to the developer, offer views toward the golf course and mountains beyond. The specification includes contemporary finishes and fittings, though as an off-plan sale, buyers have scope to influence material selections and certain layout decisions during the construction phase. No garage or carport details are confirmed in the available data.

Río Real Golf sits 4 kilometres east of Marbella's historic centre, a seven-minute drive along the N-340. The estate appeals primarily to Northern European buyers seeking a golf-adjacent property within an established community rather than a new urbanisation, and to families who prioritise garden space and a quieter setting over beachfront proximity. The nearest beach access is at Playa Real de Zaragoza, roughly 1.2 kilometres downhill. This is not a beachside plot, and the approach road from the main coastal route involves a climb through residential streets, which some buyers find less convenient than developments with direct coastal access. However, the elevation provides cooler evening temperatures and reduces the sense of density common closer to the shore.

This is an off-plan purchase with construction yet to commence. The standard Spanish payment structure applies: a reservation deposit secures the plot, followed by stage payments tied to construction milestones, with the final balance due on completion and key handover. All amounts and timelines must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is strongly recommended to review contracts, verify planning permissions, and ensure bank guarantees are in place. As a single-unit project, there is no community of owners or shared service charge, but buyers should budget for private garden and pool maintenance from occupation onward.

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.

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.
