About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom apartment with sea views in The Golden Mile, Costa del Sol. The 82-square-metre south-facing terrace captures uninterrupted Mediterranean vistas and extends the 145-square-metre interior into an open-air living space large enough for dining and lounging zones. High ceilings and bespoke wood carpentry run throughout, while the open-plan kitchen features Miele appliances and a Taj Mahal marble countertop that anchors the living area.
All three bedrooms include en-suite bathrooms, and the apartment comes fully furnished with contemporary pieces selected to complement the natural textures and elegant flooring. The south orientation floods the living spaces with natural light from morning through to late afternoon. One underground parking space is included, and the apartment sits within a complex that offers communal gardens and a swimming pool.
The property occupies a position within Altos Reales, a double-gated enclave on The Golden Mile that operates 24-hour security with roving patrols. Marbella Club Golf Resort lies 2 kilometres inland, whilst Puerto Banús marina sits 4 kilometres west along the coastal road. The apartment's location within this villa-dominated community places it among The Golden Mile's most secure residential pockets, where the secondary gating restricts access beyond the main complex entry point.

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