About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom apartment with private pool in Manilva, Costa del Sol. This 107sqm residence, completing in 2026, delivers an open-plan kitchen flowing into a generous living and dining area, then out to a 30sqm semi-covered terrace overlooking the garden, communal pool, and distant sea. Two underground parking spaces and a private cellar solve storage and vehicle needs before you move in.
Inside, three bedrooms share two bathrooms across a layout designed for natural light and cross-ventilation. The kitchen arrives fitted but unfurnished, allowing you to specify appliances and cabinetry to taste. The terrace extends usable space by nearly a third again, offering both shaded and open zones for year-round outdoor living. The cellar provides dedicated storage separate from the apartment itself, while the double parking allocation accommodates two vehicles or leaves one bay free for bicycles and sports equipment.
The development includes a communal gym, co-working space, hammam, solarium, and billiards room, with 24-hour security across the site. Manilva town centre sits 800 metres away, reachable on foot in under ten minutes, with local shops, bars, and restaurants lining the streets around Plaza de la Vendimia. The nearest beach lies one kilometre south, a short drive or 12-minute walk depending on your route. Estepona marina is 15 minutes by car along the A-7, while Sotogrande port and its international school are 20 minutes east. The property qualifies for new-build warranties and energy efficiency standards applicable to 2026 completions.

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