About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom apartment with private pool in Puerto de Cabopino, Costa del Sol. This dual-level residence spans 120 square metres and includes two balconies oriented southeast and east, capturing morning light across the living spaces. The private pool offers year-round use without the scheduling constraints of shared facilities.
The ground-floor level contains the principal living area, which opens onto a 6-square-metre terrace overlooking communal gardens planted with mature palms and subtropical species. Three bedrooms are distributed across both floors, serviced by two bathrooms with ceramic tiling and fitted storage. The kitchen provides ample counter space and integrated appliances, whilst the living room accommodates both dining and lounge zones. One allocated parking space is included in the sale, and furniture can be negotiated separately if required.
Puerto de Cabopino marina sits two minutes' walk from the property, where a working harbour hosts fishing boats alongside leisure craft and a selection of waterfront restaurants serving fresh catch daily. The beach extends 1.4 kilometres eastward from the port, accessible via a paved promenade that connects to the dune systems of Artola Beach. Marbella town centre lies 15 kilometres west along the A-7 coastal road, reachable in under 20 minutes by car. The apartment was constructed in 1979 and remains in good structural condition, with original joinery and tilework intact throughout both levels.

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