About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom townhouse with mountain views in Alhaurin de la Torre, Costa del Sol. This south-facing semi-detached villa sits directly beside the first hole at Lauro Golf, where the Sierra de Mijas forms a natural backdrop to daily life. The position delivers uninterrupted views across fairways and peaks, with the layout designed across three levels to maximise light and connect every room to the surrounding terrain.
The main floor centres on an open-plan living and dining area with a working fireplace, flowing into a fully equipped kitchen with direct access to a private terrace and garden. Upstairs, two double bedrooms include a principal suite with en-suite bathroom, while a second full bathroom serves the guest room. The 176sqm build provides generous proportions throughout, with large glass doors opening the ground floor onto outdoor space suited to year-round use. The terrace extends into a private garden where the golf course meets the property boundary.
Lauro Golf offers residents access to an 18-hole championship course, communal pool, padel courts, landscaped gardens, and 24-hour security. The complex sits 20 minutes from Málaga Airport via the A-7, with the beaches of Torremolinos 15 minutes south and Málaga city centre 18 minutes east. Alhaurin de la Torre's town centre lies 5 minutes away, providing supermarkets, schools, and local services within easy reach of the property.

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