About this property

Overview

Four large villas on an elevated plot in the Buena Vista area of Mijas, above the Higuerón resort and the coast between Fuengirola and Benalmádena. Each villa sits on its own plot with private garden, swimming pool and solarium. The built size runs from 659 to 694 square metres across four bedrooms and four bathrooms, so these are homes built around open-plan living spaces, wide terraces and the kind of room count that gives each occupant their own floor or wing.

The setting puts you on the hillside rather than down by the beach. Carvajal Beach and the Fuengirola promenade are a short drive, as is Benalmádena Pueblo inland. Higuerón Resort sits immediately below, with its sports facilities, spa and restaurants. International schools, supermarkets and the A7 motorway are all within a few minutes by car. The location is quiet and residential, which means you are not walking to a bakery or a corner shop. You drive for everything, or you use the resort amenities when the villa feels too large.

The architecture is contemporary, with flat roofs, large windows and clean lines. The villas are independent rather than part of a shared community, so there are no communal gardens, no neighbours in the next unit, and no residents' fees beyond your own plot. That gives you privacy and control, but it also means you maintain your own pool, your own garden, and your own security. This suits buyers who want space and seclusion over the convenience of a managed complex, and who are prepared to run a house of this size themselves or hire staff to do it.

HIGUERON HILLS COLLECTION: Frequently Asked Questions

Built size ranges from 659 to 694 square metres across four bedrooms and four bathrooms. The layouts dedicate much of that space to open-plan living areas, wide terraces and a solarium on each plot, so the bedroom count is low relative to the overall footprint.

Each villa sits on its own plot with a private garden, swimming pool and solarium. There are no communal areas, no shared amenities and no residents' association, which means you maintain your own pool and garden but answer to no committee.

Very little. The hillside location in the Buena Vista area of Mijas is quiet and residential, without shops or cafés on foot. You drive to the beach, to supermarkets and to schools, or you use the facilities at Higuerón Resort just below the development when you want something closer.

It can, but the size of the villas and the fact you need a car for every errand make them better suited to families or buyers who want permanent space rather than those looking for a low-maintenance lock-up-and-leave. The setting is quiet enough for full-time residence on the Costa del Sol.

Most new developments nearby are gated communities with shared pools, gardens and security. These four villas are independent plots with no communal infrastructure, which suits buyers who prefer privacy and control over the convenience of a managed complex.

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.
