About this property
Overview
BEST TURNKEY VILLA PROJECT 2026/2027-SOTOGRANDE
Undoubtedly the best villa project available in the exclusive resort of Almenara Golf. Perfectly integrated into nature, the orientation of the plot guarantees complete privacy alongside breathtaking, panoramic sea and golf views.
The Final Opportunity on This Ridge
As the last of three adjoining plots, this villa represents a rare, privileged acquisition. Both neighbouring properties, to the left and right, have already been fully developed and sold to their new owners, establishing an exclusive, settled environment. Once this final villa is completed, you will enjoy absolute tranquillity, with no further construction noise or neighbourhood disruption. Award-Winning Architecture & Swiss Management
The project is designed by one of Andalucía's most acclaimed contemporary architecture practices. Recognised internationally with multiple German Design Awards, a DNA Paris Design Award, and a WAN Award - including for the nearby villa, also in Sotogrande - the studio masterfully harmonises striking modern architecture with the Mediterranean landscape. To guarantee seamless execution, the entire development is overseen by an experienced Swiss project manager, from inception to handing over the keys.
Exceptional Design & Smart Living
Panoramic sea and golf views are enjoyed from virtually every corner all terraces, the pool, kitchen, living areas and the private suites - with complete privacy throughout. The established Mediterranean garden features mature trees and can be tailored to balance sunny spots and natural shade without compromising the view. Months of meticulous planning by the architect, project manager, landscape gardener and interior designer ensure absolute design integrity, with no compromise on functionality. A prime example is the main entrance, where smart glass technology replaces traditional walls: with a single click, windows shift from transparent to opaque to optimise light, shade and climate control while preserving uninterrupted vistas.
Flexible Layout & Customization
Entrance Level: Expansive living room, a spacious en-suite bedroom, private gym, open and covered terraces, and an infinity pool.
First Floor: Three further en-suite bedrooms, a secondary living room, numerous private terraces, and a roof garden.
Lower Level: Set one level below the entrance floor, this walk-out level still enjoys genuine natural light on the valley side, thanks to the elevated, partly cantilevered pool and terrace above - effectively a second, lower garden rather than a conventional basement. It can be fully customised to include one or two additional en-suite bedrooms, a private spa, or entertainment spaces, allowing for anywhere from 4 up to 6 bedrooms in total.
Technical Highlights: Full underfloor heating, an advanced domotic system, a private elevator, and solar energy integration.
Within this existing volume, the entire concept can be tailored to your specific needs. Clients can choose to have the villa finished precisely to the architect's award-winning design, or collaborate closely on materials (Italian Carrara marble versus solid wood), kitchen concepts, and custom additions such as a larger gym, extra bedrooms, an office, underground parking, or extra entertaining space. We are equally open to both approaches.

Villa Tierra Almenara Golf: Frequently Asked Questions
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.
