About this property

Overview

The Kove is a new development of 2 to 3-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Mijas, Costa del Sol, priced from €410,000 to €764,000. The project is the work of a named architect whose approach treats the design as an extension of the Mediterranean landscape rather than an imposition upon it. This architectural direction distinguishes the development from the more standardised apartment blocks that have proliferated across inland Mijas in recent years. Ground floor units here offer direct access to the gardens, which matters if you prefer not to rely solely on a terrace for outdoor space.

Built sizes range from 92 to 154 square metres across the two and three-bedroom layouts, all with two bathrooms. The development includes two swimming pools, a spa, a gym, and a coworking space with a kitchen. Gardens surround the communal areas, which are designed to support daily routines rather than function purely as ornamental features. The supplier description emphasises views towards both the mountains and the sea, though the extent and quality of those views will vary by unit position and floor level. Ground floor apartments typically prioritise garden access over elevated sightlines.

Málaga-Costa del Sol International Airport is under 30 minutes away, which has made inland Mijas increasingly attractive to Northern European buyers seeking year-round access without the coastal premium. The beaches at Mijas Costa and Fuengirola are 15 minutes by car, Marbella 25 minutes. This area appeals to buyers who want proximity to the coast without living directly on it, and to those who find the inland microclimate more tolerable during summer. The trade-off is that you are car-dependent for most errands and entirely reliant on a vehicle to reach the beach. Mijas itself has become a mixed community of Spanish residents, long-term international residents, and short-term rental tenants, which affects both the social character and the resale market.

The development appears to be either off-plan or under construction, though the supplier data does not confirm completion status or handover dates. Standard Spanish new build payment structures apply: a reservation deposit secures the unit, stage payments follow construction milestones, and the balance is due on completion when keys are handed over. All amounts and schedules must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is essential, particularly for reviewing the purchase contract and verifying that all promised amenities and specifications are contractually binding. Ground floor apartments in communal developments often come with specific clauses regarding garden use, so clarify whether your outdoor space is private or shared before you commit.

The Kove: Frequently Asked Questions

The Kove offers ground floor apartments ranging from €410,000 to €764,000, depending on the size and configuration you choose. The price variation reflects the different bedroom counts and built sizes available across the development, so you can find an option that matches both your budget and space requirements.

The Kove provides 2 and 3 bedroom ground floor apartments with built sizes ranging from 92 m² up to 154 m². The smaller 2 bedroom units start at 92 m², while the larger 3 bedroom apartments reach up to 154 m², giving you flexibility to choose based on your lifestyle needs.

Every ground floor apartment at The Kove includes a private garden, and you'll also have access to either a private or communal pool depending on your unit. Additionally, each apartment comes with a private garage, so you have secure parking and outdoor living space included in your purchase.

Yes, The Kove is designed with sea views as a key feature, and the south-facing orientation of the apartments maximizes natural light and views throughout the day. This positioning also means you'll benefit from excellent sunlight exposure across your living spaces.

The Kove is expected to be completed in September 2028, giving you a clear timeline for when you can take possession of your ground floor apartment. This allows time for quality construction while keeping the project on a defined schedule.

Buying off-plan in El Chaparral 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.
