About this property
Overview
Villa HALO is a six-bedroom, seven-bathroom residence on a plot of 2,451 square metres, with 1,906 square metres built and terraces spanning between 336 and 523 square metres. The house occupies a golf frontline position in La Reserva de Sotogrande, looking south over the course and out to the Mediterranean. This is a single very large villa, not a collection of units, so it suits a buyer who wants a permanent family home or a substantial second residence on the coast, not someone looking for a low-maintenance apartment or a smaller villa.
The location sits on the coastal side of the AP-7 motorway, with the Mediterranean seafront within walking distance. Gibraltar Airport is a 33-minute drive, useful for regular flights to the UK. Lidl is 13 minutes by car. San Roque itself is quieter than Marbella or Estepona but still gives you access to the wider Costa del Sol. You are close to golf, shops and the sea, but this is not a town-centre address. Daily errands will mostly need a car.
A villa of this size requires year-round upkeep, whether you live in it full-time or not. The plot and the house are both large, so budget for maintenance staff, garden care and pool servicing. The setting offers privacy and space, but it also means you are responsible for a substantial property. Buyers looking for a lock-up-and-leave arrangement will find this impractical. Those who want a long-term family base with room to expand, and who are prepared to manage or oversee the running of a large home, will find the scale and the position on the golf course work in their favour.

Villa HALO: Frequently Asked Questions
How big is the villa and what size is the plot?
The villa measures 1,906 square metres built, set on a plot of 2,451 square metres. The terraces range between 336 and 523 square metres, so there is substantial outdoor space as well as indoor. This is one very large single residence, not a development of smaller units.
How far is the beach from the villa?
The beach is 5.4 kilometres away, which takes about 22 minutes by car. The Mediterranean seafront is within walking distance from the development, though the main sandy beaches require a short drive. You are close to the sea but not directly on it.
What are the views like and which way does the villa face?
The villa faces south and looks out over the golf course at La Reserva de Sotogrande, with sea views beyond and panoramic vistas across the surrounding landscape. South orientation means natural light throughout the day and the terrace spaces remain usable in cooler months.
What golf facilities are nearby?
The villa sits on the golf frontline at La Reserva de Sotogrande, so the course is immediately outside. San Roque also places you within reach of several other courses along this stretch of the Costa del Sol. The golf setting brings quiet and open views, but it also means you are not in a town centre.
How far is Gibraltar Airport?
Gibraltar Airport is 16 kilometres away, a drive of about 33 minutes. That makes regular flights to the UK straightforward, and it is noticeably closer than Málaga if you are visiting often or need flexible travel. The airport serves a limited number of routes, so check connections before relying on it.
How does buying off-plan work in Spain?
Buying off-plan in San Roque 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.
Are my deposits protected if the developer goes bust?
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.
What building guarantees come with a new-build?
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.
What taxes apply to new-build property in Spain?
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.
Can I customise finishes and layout before completion?
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.
How long will construction take?
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.
What should I check before signing an off-plan contract?
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.
Do I need a NIE and Spanish bank account to buy off-plan?
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.
Can non-residents get a Spanish mortgage?
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.
Should I get pre-approval before viewing?
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.
What taxes will I pay buying a property in San Roque?
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.
What ongoing costs should I expect?
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.
Are agent fees paid by the buyer or seller?
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.
