About this property
Overview
Calanova Homes offers four-bedroom villas spread across multiple levels, with built sizes ranging from 136 to 267 square metres. The smaller homes suit couples or young families looking for a manageable modern villa with golf access. The larger end of the range brings space for extended families or those who want a dedicated guest suite, home office or media room. Each villa includes three bathrooms, terraces spanning 40 to 127 square metres, and either a communal or private pool. Parking comes as standard, and some villas include a lift between floors.
The development sits within Calanova Golf, so the course is on your doorstep. This is frontline golf, which means uninterrupted views over the fairways from upper floors and no road noise from passing traffic. It also means a quieter pace than the towns further east. The location is on the sea side of the AP-7, giving access to the coast without entering the motorway corridor. Carrefour is seven minutes by car for supermarket shopping. Málaga Airport is 43 minutes away.
The setting suits golfers and families who want proximity to the beach without living in a resort town. The villas face south or south-west, so terraces get sun for most of the day. Sea and mountain views are available from upper floors, and the elevation means you avoid the damp that affects ground-floor homes closer to the shore. The drawback is that you need a car for everything beyond the golf club. There is no village within walking distance, and the beach requires a drive.
Interiors use large-format porcelain floors in living areas and wood laminate in bedrooms. Bathrooms have underfloor heating. Some villas include solar panels. The plot sizes, which range from 33 to 128 square metres, reflect the terraced nature of the land rather than large private gardens, so outdoor space is primarily on the terraces themselves.

Calanova Homes: Frequently Asked Questions
How big are the villas and what makes the sizes different?
Built area runs from 136 to 267 square metres across four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The smaller villas work on three floors with compact layouts, while the larger ones spread living space more generously and often include a lift. Terrace size varies from 40 to 127 square metres, so the top of the range gives you nearly triple the outdoor space.
How far is the beach from Calanova Golf?
Playa de Calahonda sits 2.8 kilometres away, about nine minutes by car. There is no walking route because the development sits inland on rising ground, and the road carries fast traffic. You drive to the beach, but the elevation means the villas stay dry and catch sea views from upper floors.
Do the villas have private pools or shared ones?
Some villas have a private pool on their plot, others use a communal pool. Private pools mean you control the garden and pool maintenance yourself. Communal pools are looked after through service charges, so less work but a monthly cost and shared use in summer.
What does frontline golf actually mean here?
Calanova Golf course is on site, so you step out of the villa onto the fairway. Views from upper floors look straight over the greens with no buildings in between. The trade is quiet and green space against needing a car for shops, restaurants and the coast, because nothing else is within walking distance.
How far is Málaga Airport and does that work for a holiday home?
Málaga Airport is 27 kilometres away, roughly 43 minutes by car along the A-7 and AP-7. That makes the villas practical for lock-up-and-leave use if you fly in regularly. The Costa del Sol has year-round flights, so the drive is manageable even for long weekends.
How does buying off-plan work in Spain?
Buying off-plan in Calanova Golf 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 Calanova Golf?
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.
