About this property

Overview

Villa La Ermita is a detached three-bedroom villa on a 513-square-metre plot in the mountains above Mijas, with 336 square metres built. The layout spans three levels. The entrance floor holds the living room, open kitchen and dining area, which run out to covered and uncovered terraces and the pool. A guest toilet and two-car garage complete this level. The middle floor contains the master bedroom with its own bathroom and terrace, plus two further bedrooms that share a bathroom and a terrace. The basement is a self-contained space with natural light, two bedrooms, a shared bathroom, a large living room, a laundry and a storage room. It has its own terrace and direct sea views, so it works as accommodation for extended family or as a separate guest suite. The villa sits within a gated community, which adds a layer of security but means shared access and communal rules.

The plot sits uphill from the AP-7 motorway, closer to Mijas Pueblo than to the coast. Supermercados Dia is a four-minute walk, and the village itself, with its full range of shops and restaurants, is within easy reach on foot. The nearest beach is a fifteen-minute drive, Málaga Airport thirty-four minutes, and The British College sixteen minutes, so the location suits buyers who want mountain surroundings and do not need the sea on the doorstep. The drive down to the coast or the airport is straightforward, but it is a drive, not a walk. The setting gives panoramic views over the sea, mountains and valley, which is the main reason to be here. If you want to step out onto a beachfront promenade, this is the wrong place.

Villa La Ermita: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa Torreblanca-Carvajal is fifteen minutes by car. The villa sits in the mountains above Mijas, inland of the motorway, so the beach is never a walk. The setting trades coastal access for panoramic views over the sea and valley.

The entrance floor holds the living areas, kitchen and pool terrace. The middle floor contains three bedrooms, two bathrooms and two terraces. The basement is a self-contained two-bedroom suite with its own bathroom, living room, terrace and direct sea views, so it works as separate guest or family accommodation.

The villa has a private pool on its 513-square-metre plot. You also have access to any communal facilities within the gated community, but the pool beside your terrace is yours alone, with no upkeep shared with neighbours.

A supermarket is a four-minute walk. Mijas Pueblo, with its shops and restaurants, is within easy reach on foot from the community. The beach, airport, schools and hospital all need a car.

Yes. The basement suite has its own terrace and direct sea views, so it feels like a separate living space rather than a below-ground room. That makes it practical as long-term accommodation for family or guests who want privacy.

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.
