About this property

Overview

Altos del Chaparral is a new development of 2 to 3-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Mijas, Costa del Sol, priced from €445,000 to €954,000. The project comprises 120 units distributed across nine separate buildings on a 31,000 m² plot, which is unusually large for a development of this scale and allows for extensive communal facilities and integrated natural areas. The scheme sits between two golf courses and 1 km from the new Gran Parque Costa del Sol, a 360,000 m² public park currently under development. At this price point, ground floor apartments with direct garden access represent competitive value in the La Cala de Mijas area, where similar new builds typically command higher premiums for proximity to the coast.

Built sizes range from 72 to 103 m², with all units featuring two bathrooms regardless of bedroom count. Each apartment includes one parking space, with optional storage rooms available separately. The development offers two saltwater swimming pools, one of which is an infinity design intended for lap swimming rather than purely recreational use. A 300 m² wellness area includes a gymnasium with natural light and ventilation, a spa with heated pool, sauna, changing rooms, and showers. Additional communal facilities include a social and coworking room, an outdoor kitchen with lounge and chill-out area, an outdoor yoga terrace, a children's play area, a multi-purpose volleyball court with beach sand that can also be used for beach paddle tennis, a putting green, organic vegetable gardens, a viewpoint with reading area, and footpaths throughout the natural zones. The supplier description emphasises sustainable construction methods, though specific certifications are not detailed in the available data.

La Cala de Mijas and Fuengirola are both 3 km from the development, offering beaches, restaurants, and established expatriate communities. This area attracts Northern European buyers seeking year-round residence or rental investment, particularly those who prioritise golf access and lower density than Marbella or central Fuengirola. The location is inland from the coast, which explains the price differential compared to beachfront schemes, but road access to the A7 coastal motorway is straightforward. The surrounding golf courses and the forthcoming Gran Parque provide green space and recreational options within walking distance, which appeals to buyers who want outdoor activity without relying entirely on the beach. La Cala has developed a reputation as a quieter alternative to the busier resorts further west, with a mix of Spanish residents and international owners.

This is an off-plan project currently under construction. Spanish new build purchases typically require a reservation deposit to secure a unit, followed by stage payments linked to construction milestones, with the balance due on completion when keys are handed over. All payment schedules and amounts must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is strongly recommended to review contracts, verify building licences, and ensure bank guarantees are in place to protect stage payments. The development includes 1-bedroom units in addition to the 2 and 3-bedroom ground floor apartments, so buyers should clarify which unit types remain available and their expected completion dates.

Some units may have additional outdoor space, so it's worth checking the specific layout of the apartment you're interested in.

Altos del Chaparral is located right on the beachfront in Mijas Costa, so you're literally steps away from the sand and sea. This beach-side location is one of the main selling points of the development, giving you direct access to one of the Costa del Sol's most sought-after stretches of coastline. You'll have both the convenience of beach living and easy access to the restaurants and amenities along the coast.

Every ground floor apartment at Altos del Chaparral comes with a private garden, which is a major advantage of choosing this level.

This combination of private garden, garage, and pool access makes Altos del Chaparral particularly attractive for families or those wanting outdoor living space.

Buying off-plan in Mijas Costa 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.
