About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom townhouse with sea views in Benalmádena, Costa del Sol. Spread across three levels, this recently renovated property captures Mediterranean light and coastal glimpses from its elevated position. The 152sqm interior combines practical family space with the kind of outlook that makes morning coffee on the terrace a daily ritual rather than a weekend treat.
The ground floor opens to a fitted kitchen and a reception room that extends to a private terrace, where the sea appears between neighbouring rooflines. Upstairs, three bedrooms share two bathrooms, with the principal bedroom claiming the best of the views. Outside, the 130sqm plot includes off-street parking for one car and a low-maintenance garden that catches afternoon sun. The property connects to communal facilities including a swimming pool and landscaped gardens maintained by the complex.
Set within the Veracruz urbanisation, the townhouse sits in a residential pocket of Benalmádena that balances green surroundings with coastal access. The beach lies 4 kilometres away, while Málaga Airport is a 14-kilometre drive for arrivals and departures. The town centre, with its mix of Spanish and international restaurants, supermarkets and the Parque de la Paloma, is within a short drive. The complex itself provides a buffer from through-traffic whilst keeping main road connections close enough for daily errands or weekend runs along the coast.

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