About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom townhouse with sea views in Mijas, Costa del Sol. This south-facing property spreads across two storeys with 100sqm of built space and a 30sqm private terrace where the Mediterranean coastline stretches out below, framed by mountain ridges to the north. The recently renovated interiors balance clean lines with warmth: a feature fireplace anchors the main lounge, while the white gloss kitchen comes fitted with quartz worktops and integrated appliances.
Both bedrooms sit on the upper level, the principal suite opening onto its own terrace with the same coastal outlook. Three bathrooms service the property, including a guest toilet on the ground floor. The terrace runs the length of the living space, accessible through sliding glass doors, and offers enough room for outdoor dining and lounging furniture. One allocated parking space comes with the sale, and the property is part-furnished, meaning you can move in without starting from scratch.
El Porton de Mijas is a gated community with 24-hour security, a communal pool set within landscaped gardens, and controlled access. The whitewashed village of Mijas Pueblo sits 10 minutes up the hillside, where cobbled streets wind past ceramic workshops and tapas bars with views that reach all the way to Africa on clear days. The coast lies 15 minutes downhill, putting you within reach of beaches, marinas, and the A7 coastal motorway.

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