About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom apartment with private pool in Alhaurín el Grande, Costa del Sol. The property sits within El Mirador, a community where apartments of this size rarely become available, offering 132 square metres of accommodation plus a 20-square-metre terrace enclosed with glass curtains for year-round use.
Inside, the layout centres on an open-plan kitchen and dining area that flows into a separate living and dining room. Both bedrooms are doubles, each served by its own bathroom. The terrace extends the living space and frames views across Alhaurín Golf's fairways to the forested hills and mountain ridges beyond. Below ground, a dedicated parking space connects directly to a storage room, eliminating the need to carry shopping or luggage across shared corridors.
El Mirador shares its grounds with the 18-hole Alhaurín Golf course, which lies immediately adjacent to the complex. The town centre of Alhaurín el Grande is a six-minute drive north, while Málaga airport sits 35 kilometres to the southeast. Residents access a communal pool and landscaped gardens within the development. The apartment was completed in 2002 and remains in good structural condition, sold unfurnished with possession available upon completion.

9 questions answered
Buying this apartment in Alhaurin Golf
Can foreigners buy property in Alhaurín el Grande?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Alhaurín el Grande. You will need a Spanish NIE (foreigner tax number) before signing the title deed, plus a Spanish bank account for the transfer. The full purchase typically completes 6 to 10 weeks from signing the reservation contract.
What is an NIE and how do I get one?
The NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) is your Spanish tax ID and is mandatory for buying property, opening a bank account or paying taxes. You can apply at a Spanish consulate in your home country or in person in Spain. Your lawyer can also obtain it on your behalf with a power of attorney, typically 2 to 4 weeks.
Do I need a Spanish lawyer?
Strongly recommended. An independent lawyer (abogado), separate from the agent and seller, verifies title, checks for debts and planning issues, drafts contracts and represents you at the notary. Typical fee is 1% of the purchase price plus VAT, with a minimum around €1,500.
How long does completion take?
From accepted offer to keys: 6 to 10 weeks for a resale, 30 to 45 days from reservation if no mortgage is needed. New-build off-plan completes when the development is delivered, often 18 to 36 months after reservation, with staged payments along the way.
What taxes will I pay buying a property in Alhaurín el Grande?
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.
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.
