About this property

Overview

Santa Clara Homes is a new development of 3 to 4-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Marbella, Costa del Sol, priced from €1,245,000 to €1,528,000. This is a substantial gated community of 104 homes positioned on elevated terrain in eastern Marbella, where the entry price sits approximately 40% above the area average for equivalent new builds. The scale allows for extensive communal facilities while maintaining privacy through mature pine woodland that predates construction.

Ground floor units range from 149 to 255 m² of built space, with three or four bathrooms depending on configuration. Each apartment includes private terrace access and garden areas, a feature that distinguishes ground floor living from mid-level or penthouse alternatives in the same development. The specification includes open-plan living and kitchen areas with large-format porcelain tiling, floor-to-ceiling windows, and integrated LED lighting throughout. Communal amenities include landscaped gardens, a swimming pool, and on-site leisure and sports facilities. The supplier description references show apartments available for viewing, which suggests construction has reached an advanced stage.

Eastern Marbella attracts a mix of northern European second-home buyers and international families relocating for the school infrastructure. Marbella Old Town is approximately 12 minutes by car via the A-7, while the development sits within a 10-minute radius of several golf resorts, international schools, and beach access points. This corridor between Marbella and Elviria has seen considerable residential expansion over the past decade, supported by direct motorway connections to both Málaga airport (45 minutes) and Gibraltar (55 minutes). The hillside position means most ground floor units will not have sea views, though some may overlook the golf course depending on orientation. Road access relies on the coastal motorway network, which experiences congestion during July and August.

The development appears to be under construction with show apartments now open, though buyers should confirm the exact completion timeline and any remaining stage payment obligations with the developer directly. Spanish new build purchases typically require a reservation deposit to secure a unit, followed by stage payments aligned with construction milestones, with the balance due on completion when keys are handed over. All payment schedules and contractual terms should be reviewed by an independent Spanish property lawyer before any commitment is made. Ground floor apartments in gated communities of this scale often achieve strong rental yields during peak season, though owners' association fees will reflect the extensive shared amenities and landscaping maintenance.

Santa Clara Homes: Frequently Asked Questions

The price at Santa Clara Homes covers the apartment itself, a private garage, and access to either a private or communal pool depending on your unit. All ground floor apartments come with a private garden, and the south-facing orientation means you'll get excellent natural light throughout the day. Finishing details and any additional upgrades are discussed during the sales process.

Santa Clara Homes is situated in Marbella on the Costa del Sol, one of Spain's most sought-after coastal areas. The location offers easy access to local amenities, beaches, and the wider Costa del Sol infrastructure. Being ground floor units, residents enjoy direct access to their private gardens and the surrounding area.

Santa Clara Homes offers 3 and 4 bedroom ground floor apartments ranging from 149 m² to 255 m². The larger units give you more space and flexibility, while the smaller options are still generously proportioned. Each size category is priced accordingly, with the range starting at €1,245,000 and going up to €1,528,000.

Yes, Santa Clara Homes features sea views from the apartments, and the south-facing orientation maximizes both the views and natural sunlight. This positioning is one of the key selling points of the development. Combined with the private gardens on each ground floor unit, you get direct connection to outdoor space with water views.

Santa Clara Homes is expected to be completed on 31 December 2025. This gives you a clear timeline for when you can take possession of your ground floor apartment. Current availability and specific unit completion dates can be confirmed during your consultation with the sales team.

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.
