About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom apartment with sea views in Calahonda, Costa del Sol. This east-facing ground-floor apartment combines authentic Andalusian architectural details with genuine renovation potential, offering 67 square metres of living space plus a 7-square-metre covered terrace. The open-plan kitchen features a breakfast bar that connects directly to the living area, whilst distinctive brick archways add period character throughout the interior.
The apartment provides two double bedrooms and two bathrooms across its single-level layout. The sheltered terrace faces east, delivering morning light and glimpses of the Mediterranean. One allocated parking space accompanies the property, and the sale includes all furniture. Built in 1986, the apartment requires updating but retains its original Andalusian features, including exposed brickwork and traditional archways that frame the main living spaces. The ground-floor position allows direct access to the communal areas without stairs or lifts.
Calahonda Park offers residents a swimming pool and landscaped gardens within a quiet residential setting. The complex sits 1.2 kilometres from Calahonda beach, reachable in under 15 minutes on foot. Local amenities, including supermarkets, restaurants and the Calahonda commercial centre, lie within 800 metres of the development. The apartment's east orientation means the covered terrace remains shaded during the afternoon heat whilst capturing sunrise views over the coast.

Buying this apartment in Calahonda
Can foreigners buy property in Calahonda?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Calahonda. 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 Calahonda?
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.
