About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom villa in Monda, Costa del Sol. This 160sqm country property offers privacy and direct road access in a rural setting, with views across the village rooftops to Monda's 10th-century Moorish castle. The layout separates sleeping quarters from living spaces, with one en-suite bedroom and a second full bathroom for guests.
The 40sqm terrace connects directly to the kitchen, creating an outdoor dining area that extends the usable space for most of the year. Inside, the living and dining room centres around a working fireplace and opens onto the 243sqm plot through full-width doors. The separate kitchen provides independent access to the terrace without passing through other rooms. Part furnishing is included, and the 1995 build retains original features in fair condition throughout.
The property sits on the northern edge of Monda village, 4km from the town centre and its whitewashed streets. Marbella's coastal amenities lie 18km south via the A-355, a 25-minute drive through olive groves and almond terraces. The garden area wraps around the villa's eastern and southern sides, with space that current owners use as an outdoor seating zone facing the castle ruins.

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