About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom townhouse with private pool in Cabopino, Costa del Sol. Fully renovated in 2024, this 110-square-metre property sits in the quiet Artola Baja residential area, just minutes' walk from the sand. The southwest and west orientation brings afternoon sun across both levels, whilst the recent refurbishment includes contemporary finishes throughout the interior and a private pool in the rear garden.
The ground floor opens to a living area with direct terrace access, a modern kitchen with integrated appliances, and a guest bathroom. Upstairs, the principal bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom and a private terrace with views over the surrounding pinewoods. The second bedroom also has en-suite facilities, and both bathrooms feature walk-in showers with rainfall heads. Outside, the 37-square-metre terrace wraps around the pool area, with space for outdoor dining and sun loungers. The property includes one parking space and comes fully furnished.
Artola Baja occupies a protected coastal strip between the A-7 and the Mediterranean, where residential streets give way to natural dune systems. Cabopino Beach lies 400 metres to the south through a pedestrian path that cuts through pine forest and wild grasses. The marina at Puerto Cabopino, with its restaurants and boat moorings, stands 10 minutes' walk along the coast path, whilst Marbella town centre sits 15 kilometres west via the coastal road.

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