About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom apartment with private terrace in La Cala Golf, Costa del Sol. This middle-floor residence spans 82 square metres of built space and opens onto a generous 26-square-metre south-facing terrace that overlooks the communal gardens and swimming pools below.
Inside, the apartment delivers two double bedrooms and two bathrooms within a layout built in 2020 and maintained in excellent condition. The open-plan living area connects directly to the terrace through floor-to-ceiling glass doors that draw natural light throughout the day. Both bedrooms include fitted wardrobes, and the master suite opens onto the terrace. The kitchen comes fully equipped and furnished, ready for immediate use. The 108-square-metre plot includes access to the private terrace, which provides enough space for outdoor dining and sun loungers without overlooking neighbouring properties.
The apartment sits within Sun Valley 1, a gated community of just 23 residences across two low-rise blocks. The development shares landscaped gardens, two communal swimming pools, and 24-hour security with the wider La Cala Golf Resort, which operates three 18-hole championship courses within a five-minute walk of the property. The resort clubhouse, located 400 metres from the complex, houses a pro shop, restaurant, and spa facilities. Fuengirola town centre and its beaches lie 12 kilometres to the south, a 15-minute drive along the A-7 coast road.

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