About this property

Overview

Residencial Living Gardens consists of 61 apartments spread across one to four bedrooms, with built sizes from 86 to 192 square metres. The one-bedroom homes suit singles or couples, while the four-bedroom layouts at the upper end work for larger families who need separate rooms for children or for home working. Terraces run from 8 to 95 square metres, so the smaller apartments have compact outdoor space and the largest have what amounts to an extra living area outside. Each home comes with a parking space and storage room.

The development sits above the AP-7 on the mountain side of Torremolinos, which puts El Gato Beach 22 minutes away on foot. You can walk to the coast, but it is not a quick dash, and for daily trips most residents will drive. Málaga Airport is 21 minutes by car, which makes this practical for holiday use or for families who fly often. Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez is 8 minutes away, and Carrefour is 13 minutes on foot for supermarket shopping. Torremolinos town centre is 5 minutes by car for restaurants and local services. The setting works if you want to be near the beach without living on it, and if you plan to use a car for most errands.

Communal facilities include an infinity pool, a fitness area, a coworking room, a gastrobar for social gatherings, and gardens with seating. Layouts are open-plan, with the kitchen, living and dining areas combined, and large windows connect the interior to the terrace. The main drawback is the location above a motorway, which brings road noise, and the distance from the beach means you cannot simply walk down for a swim whenever the mood takes you.

Location

Torremolinos

Location shown is the development site. This development is in TorremolinosCosta del Sol.

Residencial Living Gardens sits above the AP-7, towards the mountains in Torremolinos. El Gato Beach is a 22 minute walk away, making this a near-beach location with easy access to the coast. Málaga Airport is just 21 minutes by car, which suits holiday buyers and families who travel frequently. The Carrefour supermarket is a 13 minute walk for daily shopping, and Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez is 8 minutes away for golf enthusiasts. Torremolinos town centre is 5 minutes by car with bars, restaurants, and local amenities. This location works well for families wanting beach access without being right on the coast, and for golfers who value convenience.

RESIDENCIAL LIVING GARDENS: Frequently Asked Questions

Málaga Airport is 6.2 kilometres away, about 21 minutes by car. That makes weekend breaks or frequent trips back to the UK straightforward, and it works well if you plan to rent the apartment out to holidaymakers who fly in for a week or two.

Homes face east, south or west, with views over the sea, the communal gardens, or the pool. The south-facing apartments get sun through the middle of the day, while east and west orientations catch morning or afternoon light. Which view you prefer depends on whether you want to watch the coast or look inward over the landscaping.

El Gato Beach is 1.7 kilometres away, which is a 22-minute walk. You can reach it on foot, but the route includes crossing over the AP-7 motorway and the walk back uphill takes longer. Most residents drive or use the beach occasionally rather than every day.

The complex has an infinity pool, a fitness area, a coworking room where you can take calls or work remotely, and a gastrobar for meeting neighbours. Gardens with seating run between the blocks. All of it is communal, so the monthly service charge covers maintenance and you do not look after any of it yourself.

The British College is 6.5 kilometres away in Torremolinos, about 18 minutes by car. That is close enough for a daily school run if you have children and want an English-language curriculum. The local secondary school, Instituto de Educación Secundaria Costa del Sol, is 6 minutes by car for families using the Spanish state system.

Buying off-plan in Torremolinos 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.
