About this property

Overview

Laguna One is a compact one-bedroom apartment scheme in Las Lagunas, a residential area between the AP-7 and the coast. The homes are loft-style, meaning open-plan living with the bedroom typically on a mezzanine or separated by low walls rather than a full partition. Built sizes run from 53 to 66 square metres, and terraces vary dramatically, from seven square metres on smaller units to 111 square metres on penthouses or ground floors with private gardens. East-facing orientation means morning light and shade by afternoon, which suits the climate here. You get either a communal or private pool, gardens, and garage parking.

Las Lagunas itself is a working neighbourhood rather than a resort. Mercadona is two minutes on foot, and you have schools, chemists and everyday services around you. Playa del Castillo beach is 21 minutes on foot, or five minutes by car if you are carrying kit. Fuengirola centre is six minutes by car for bars, restaurants and the town beach. Málaga Airport is 33 minutes away, which makes this location practical for holiday lets or owners splitting time between countries. The AP-7 motorway is close, so you hear traffic if windows are open.

The compact size and loft layout work well for singles, couples or investors targeting the rental market. Families with older children could manage, but the single bathroom and open bedroom arrangement make this less practical for households wanting separation or guests. The terrace size matters here: seven square metres is barely more than a balcony, while 111 square metres changes how you use the home entirely. Check the specific unit before committing. The setting is functional rather than scenic, but you are close enough to the beach to walk, and far enough from the tourist strips to avoid the summer crowds.

Laguna One sits on the sea side of the AP-7, putting you between the motorway and the Mediterranean. Playa del Castillo is a 21 minute walk away. Málaga Airport is 33 minutes by car, which makes this a practical base for holiday rentals or regular commuting. Mercadona supermarket is just two minutes on foot, and Fuengirola town centre is six minutes by car. You're also close to Cerrado del Aguila Golf for weekend rounds and Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola marina for water sports. This location works well for families wanting beach access without the chaos, and for investors eyeing the holiday rental market.

Laguna One: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa del Castillo is 1.7 kilometres away, which takes about 21 minutes on foot or six minutes by car. You can walk it comfortably for a morning swim, but most people drive if they are taking chairs or sports gear. The route is flat through residential streets rather than scenic.

The bedroom sits on a mezzanine or behind low partition walls rather than in a separate enclosed room. You get one bathroom for the whole home. It works well for couples or single occupancy, but families or anyone hosting guests will find the lack of privacy limiting. The open plan makes the 53 to 66 square metres feel larger than a traditional one-bedroom layout.

Terraces range from seven square metres to 111 square metres, which is the difference between a small balcony and a private garden larger than the interior. Ground-floor units and penthouses get the biggest outdoor space. The smaller terraces fit a table and two chairs but not much else, so check the specific unit if outdoor living matters to you.

A supermarket is 200 metres away, and the neighbourhood has schools, chemists and everyday services around it. This is a residential area rather than a tourist zone, so you walk to groceries and errands, not to beach clubs or promenades. Fuengirola centre is six minutes by car for restaurants and nightlife.

Málaga Airport is 20 kilometres away, about 33 minutes by car along the AP-7. That makes turnarounds practical for short holiday lets or owners flying in for a few weeks. Tenants can land, collect a car and reach the apartment inside an hour. The motorway noise is the trade-off for that access.

Buying off-plan in Las Lagunas 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.
