About this property

Overview

Villa STERN is a seven-bedroom villa on a 2,212 square metre plot in Altos de Valderrama, San Roque. The built area covers 1,255 square metres. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. The villa sits close to Club de Golf Valderrama, a three-minute drive away, and looks out over the course and surrounding landscape. The southeast orientation brings morning and early afternoon sun into the main rooms.

This is a large family home. Seven en-suite bedrooms give everyone their own space, and the floorplan spreads across enough built area to accommodate a household that needs separate wings or rooms for guests, staff or older children. The entrance hall has a double-height ceiling and wide windows that pull light through the ground floor. First-floor bedrooms face the golf course and the hills beyond. Outside, the pool runs to twelve metres and the garden extends across the rest of the plot.

Altos de Valderrama is a gated residential area on the inland side of the AP-7 motorway, set among golf courses and low-density housing. Club de Golf Valderrama sits next door. Sotogrande International School is four minutes away by car. Puerto de Sotogrande, with its marina, restaurants and shops, is a fourteen-minute drive. Gibraltar Airport is twenty-eight minutes away. San Roque town centre, with supermarkets and services, is also within a quarter of an hour. You are not walking to anything from here. A car is essential for school runs, shopping and reaching the coast.

This suits a family that wants space, privacy and immediate access to golf. The layout and the seven bathrooms work for households that host regularly or need separation between children and adults. The trade-off is isolation. You are surrounded by fairways and other villas, not by a village or a beach, and every journey starts with the car keys.

Villa STERN: Frequently Asked Questions

The beach is 5.3 kilometres away, about twenty minutes by car. This is an inland golf location rather than a coastal one. You drive over the AP-7 motorway and down through Sotogrande to reach the sea. The villa overlooks the golf course and hills, not the Mediterranean.

The villa looks out over Club de Golf Valderrama and the surrounding landscape. The southeast orientation means the main rooms and first-floor bedrooms face the course and catch morning and early afternoon sun. You also see garden and pool from different parts of the house.

Gibraltar Airport is fifteen kilometres away, a twenty-eight minute drive. That makes this workable for frequent short stays. You can land, collect a hire car and be at the villa within half an hour. The airport handles flights to several UK cities, though schedules are lighter than Málaga.

Sotogrande International School is 0.7 kilometres away, a four-minute drive. A hospital is ten minutes by car. The nearest supermarket is eight minutes away in San Roque. Everything you need for daily family life sits within a quarter of an hour, but you drive to all of it.

Yes, the villa has a private twelve-metre pool and a garden that covers the rest of the 2,212 square metre plot. You maintain it yourself or employ someone to do it. There is no shared outdoor space or community fees for gardens. The plot is large enough to keep planting away from the house and leave open lawn around the pool.

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.

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.
