About this property

Overview

This is a three-storey villa on a 452 square metre plot in La Sierrezuela, the inland residential quarter of Mijas Costa above the motorway. The home spans 309 square metres built, with 100 square metres of terrace, two bedrooms and three bathrooms. One bedroom sits on the ground floor beside the open-plan living area, kitchen and guest toilet, all of which open onto the terrace, garden and private pool. The master suite occupies the entire upper floor, with a dressing room, bathroom and two terraces. The basement is left undefined, intended as a flexible space for a home cinema, gym or children's playroom, with a utility room and storage alongside. The size and bedroom count make this an unusual proposition: most villas of this footprint have three or four bedrooms, so the layout favours generous shared spaces and a large master suite over sleeping capacity. It will suit couples or small families who value room over bedroom count, but not larger households.

The setting is residential and quiet, with shops, schools and forest close by, but the beach, golf courses and Fuengirola all require a car. Playa de San Francisco is 11 minutes away, Campo Los Lagos 10 minutes, and St Anthony's College 13 minutes. Málaga Airport is 37 minutes. The mountain backdrop gives the villa south-facing views over gardens and pool, with Sierra de Mijas to the north. La Sierrezuela is gated and patrolled, which appeals to some buyers and feels restrictive to others. The infrastructure is mature, the streets are wide and the area has little passing traffic, but it lacks the walkable village centres found further inland or the seafront promenades closer to the coast. This suits those who plan to drive everywhere and want privacy over street life.

Grupo Tierra Nueva: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa de San Francisco is 3.4 kilometres away, about 11 minutes by car. Mijas Costa sits inland of the motorway, so the coast is not within walking distance. The setting trades a beachfront location for quieter surroundings, mountain views and more space on the plot.

The villas face south and look over private gardens and pools toward mountain views, with Sierra de Mijas behind. The orientation brings sun to the terraces throughout the day. The outlook is residential rather than coastal, reflecting the inland position above the motorway in La Sierrezuela.

Yes. Shops, schools and forest are close by, but the beach, golf courses and Fuengirola all require a drive. A supermarket is 1.5 kilometres away, about 7 minutes by car. The area has little within walking distance and no nearby bus routes, so this suits buyers who plan to drive rather than those who want to walk to amenities.

Málaga Airport is 19 kilometres away, about 37 minutes by car. The journey uses the AP-7 motorway and is reliable for flight times. The distance makes this workable for lock-up-and-leave use, though long-haul arrivals late at night will face a half-hour drive before reaching the villa.

St Anthony's College international school is 2.9 kilometres away, about 13 minutes by car. Hospital Vithas Xanit International in Benalmádena is 9.9 kilometres, about 17 minutes. Both are accessible by car only. The proximity to an international school makes this a practical choice for families relocating to Mijas Costa.

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.
