About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom penthouse with top-floor position in Los Boliches, Costa del Sol. This 78-square-metre apartment occupies the entire upper floor of a low-rise building on the second line from the beach, delivering an elevated perspective over the neighbourhood without the maintenance demands of a traditional house.
The interior arranges two double bedrooms and two bathrooms around a central living area that connects to an open-plan kitchen and dining zone. The living room extends onto a seven-square-metre terrace where the Mediterranean climate makes outdoor use viable year-round. Delivered unfurnished in 2026, the property arrives with contemporary finishes and fittings installed to current building standards. The kitchen comes fully equipped with integrated appliances, and both bathrooms feature modern sanitary ware and tiling. Ceiling heights and window proportions allow natural light to reach most rooms during daylight hours.
Los Boliches sits within Fuengirola's eastern residential zone, where low-density apartment blocks occupy the streets between the coastal railway line and the N340 road. The property stands 200 metres from Los Boliches beach, a four-kilometre stretch of dark sand serviced by chiringuitos and a paved promenade that connects to Fuengirola port in one direction and Carvajal in the other. The C1 commuter train stops 350 metres away at Los Boliches station, providing 40-minute connections to Málaga airport and 25-minute links to Marbella. A Mercadona supermarket operates three streets back from the beachfront, and the central Los Boliches commercial area concentrates along Calle Francisco Cano with its mix of bakeries, pharmacies and family-run restaurants.

9 questions answered
Buying this penthouse in Los Boliches
Can foreigners buy property in Los Boliches?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Los Boliches. 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 Los Boliches?
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.
