About this property

Overview

Europa Nova sits on the hillside above the AP-7 in Mijas, where the terrain starts to climb towards the mountains. This is a four-bedroom villa with three bathrooms, spread across 370 square metres of built space on a plot of 1,216 square metres. The floor plan runs over two levels, and the plot is large enough to give you a proper garden and pool without everything being tightly squeezed together. The layout connects indoor and outdoor living through wide glazing and generous terraces, so the pool and garden become extensions of the house rather than separate zones.

The hillside location puts you away from the coastal strip and its traffic, but you are not remote. ALDI is 14 minutes by car, Málaga Airport is 52 minutes, and golf courses are nearby. You will need a car for everything, including daily shopping. The setting suits buyers who want space and quiet over walkable convenience, and who are prepared to drive for most errands.

The plot size and mountain position mean you get privacy and a sense of elbow room that is harder to find closer to the coast. The villa faces its own garden and pool rather than looking out over neighbouring properties. The downside is that you are up on the hillside, not within walking distance of cafes, beaches or town centres. If you want to be able to stroll somewhere for a coffee or an evening meal, this is the wrong choice. But if you prefer a detached home with a large plot, where the surroundings are quiet and the pace is slower, Europa Nova delivers that without being cut off from the rest of the Costa del Sol.

EUROPA NOVA: Frequently Asked Questions

The nearest beach is Playa de La Cala, 6.3 kilometres away, which takes about 17 minutes by car. This is not a seafront property and the hillside location in Mijas means you cannot walk to the coast. You trade immediate beach access for a larger plot, more privacy and a quieter setting away from the busy coastal strip.

The plot has space for a private pool on its 1,216 square metres. You are responsible for maintaining it, along with the garden, but you control when and how it is used. A communal pool would mean dealing with peak-time crowding and following pool rules set by the community, which this layout avoids.

Nothing is within walking distance. The nearest supermarket is 5.7 kilometres away, and the hillside location inland of the AP-7 motorway means you will drive for groceries, restaurants and all daily errands. This suits buyers who prioritise space and quiet over walkable convenience and who do not mind using a car for everything.

Málaga Airport is 25 kilometres away, about 52 minutes by car. The route is straightforward but the hillside position in Mijas adds time compared to coastal properties. This is manageable for lock-up-and-leave use, though frequent short breaks would mean more time on the road than if you were closer to the terminal.

The views are of the garden and pool. The large plot and the way the villa is positioned mean you look out onto your own outdoor space rather than over neighbouring rooftops or towards the sea. The mountain setting provides privacy and a sense of enclosure, but this is not a property where you sit on the terrace and take in long-distance coastal or golf course vistas.

Buying off-plan in Mijas 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.
