About this property

Overview

Villa Córdoba 21 is a 469 square metre detached villa with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, set on a 1,216 square metre plot in the hills of La Cala Golf. The plan spreads across two levels that step down the slope. The main floor holds the living spaces, opening through full-height glass onto wide terraces and a cantilevered infinity pool. The pool extends out over the lower level, creating shelter for the bedrooms below while framing the sea and mountain views. The lower floor contains the more private rooms, each with large windows onto the garden. The two-storey arrangement means you walk straight out to the garden from the bedrooms as well as from the main living spaces.

The setting sits above the AP-7 motorway, high enough to stay clear of the road noise but close enough to reach everywhere quickly. Campo Europa golf course is 126 metres away. Málaga Airport is a 53-minute drive, Puerto Cabopino marina is 23 minutes, and St Anthony's College is 13 minutes. Fuengirola town centre takes 26 minutes. The roads are direct but you need a car for everything except the golf. You are not near a village centre here, and the hillside location means more driving than a coastal development.

This suits buyers who want a large villa on a generous plot, with golf access and long views, and who do not mind being outside walking range of shops or restaurants. The stepped design makes the most of the slope, giving each floor its own connection to the outdoors and keeping sight lines open across the plot. The cantilevered pool is a clear feature, sitting above the lower floor and drawing attention from the approach.

VILLA CÓRDOBA 21: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa de La Cala is 6.3 kilometres away, about 17 minutes by car. The hillside setting means you cannot walk to the coast. The height gives you sea views across the valley but puts beach access further out than a coastal development.

Campo Europa is 126 metres from the villa, close enough to walk over with clubs. The trade-off is that you are in the hills rather than near a town centre, so restaurants, supermarkets and marina access all need a car. The setting works for golfers who prioritise course access and accept the driving.

The golf course is walkable. Everything else requires a car: the nearest supermarket is 5.7 kilometres away, the beach is 6.3 kilometres, and Fuengirola is 9.1 kilometres. The hillside roads do not connect to pavements or village centres, so this is not a setting where you can walk out for coffee or groceries.

You get sea views, mountain views and panoramic views across the valley, plus views over the garden and pool. The cantilevered infinity pool on the main floor is positioned to hold the sea in the background. The stepped design keeps sight lines open from both levels.

Málaga Airport is 25 kilometres away, about 53 minutes by car. The villa sits inland of the AP-7 motorway, which gives you direct routes to the airport and the coast without backtracking. The plot size and the hillside setting mean more security and maintenance to arrange when you are away than a smaller coastal apartment.

Buying off-plan in La Cala 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.

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.
