About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom townhouse in Ojén, Costa del Sol. This recently renovated property comes fully furnished and includes an independent extra room with its own entrance, ideal for use as a home office, workshop, or guest accommodation. The semi-detached layout spans two main floors with 85 square metres of built space, complemented by a 30-square-metre terrace that extends the living area outdoors.
Inside, the two bedrooms share one bathroom, whilst the separate annex room offers genuine flexibility for remote working or hosting visitors without compromising the main house's privacy. The renovation has updated the interiors throughout, and the furniture package means you can move in immediately or begin using it as a holiday base without additional investment. The terrace provides substantial outdoor space for dining or relaxing, particularly valuable given the village setting where private outdoor areas are prized.
Ojén sits in the foothills above Marbella, maintaining its traditional whitewashed character whilst remaining just 8 kilometres from the coastal resorts and beaches of the Costa del Sol. The village centre, with its local shops and restaurants, is within walking distance, whilst Marbella's marina and old town are a 15-minute drive down the winding mountain road. The independent annex room opens directly onto the street, creating potential for separate access entirely distinct from the main house entrance.

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