About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom penthouse with private pool in Puerto Banús, Costa del Sol. This fully renovated residence occupies an end position within a boutique gated community of just 38 apartments, offering 141 square metres of living space plus a 26-square-metre terrace that opens to unobstructed mountain views over a protected natural reserve.
The interior delivers three double bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms arranged across an open-plan layout with west-facing orientation that captures afternoon light. The kitchen comes fully fitted and integrated into the main living area, which extends directly onto the private terrace. Each bedroom includes built-in wardrobes, and the principal suite features an en-suite bathroom with twin basins. Air conditioning runs throughout, and the property is sold fully furnished with contemporary pieces selected to complement the neutral palette of polished porcelain floors and white-rendered walls.
Los Jardines de las Fuentes sits 300 metres from the beach on the western edge of Marbella's Golden Mile, placing Puerto Banús marina 1.2 kilometres to the west. The complex maintains landscaped communal gardens around a central pool area, with direct pedestrian access to the coastal promenade. Marbella town centre lies six kilometres east along the N-340, and Málaga airport is 55 kilometres via the AP-7 toll motorway. The surrounding streets contain supermarkets, pharmacies and beach clubs within a five-minute walk, while the protected green zone to the rear ensures no future construction will obstruct the mountain backdrop.

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