About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom townhouse in Doña Julia, Costa del Sol. This 208-square-metre property sits in an elevated urbanisation where sea and mountain panoramas stretch across the horizon, visible from multiple levels of the home. The south-facing aspect draws natural light deep into the interior throughout the day.
The layout spans three storeys with a full basement below. Pre-installed air conditioning runs through the main living areas, supplemented by a working fireplace for cooler months. Marble flooring extends across the ground and first floors, while fitted wardrobes line the two bedrooms. Both private and covered terraces provide outdoor space at different levels. The kitchen requires full installation. Three bathrooms service the two-bedroom configuration, and one private parking space is included.
The townhouse stands within walking distance of Doña Julia Golf Club, where the 18-hole course runs parallel to the Mediterranean coastline. Casares Costa beach lies 2 kilometres to the south, accessible by a minor road that winds down through the hillside. Estepona town centre sits 10 minutes by car to the east, while the marina and old quarter of Puerto de la Duquesa are 5 minutes in the opposite direction. The property was completed in 2010 and remains in excellent structural condition, though the unfitted kitchen and distressed categorisation suggest scope for a buyer to configure the interior to personal specification.

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