About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom townhouse with private pool in El Paraiso, Costa del Sol. The 140-square-metre private plot includes a dedicated barbecue area, making outdoor dining a year-round possibility rather than a seasonal compromise.
Inside, 249 square metres of built space unfolds across three bedrooms and two bathrooms, all fully furnished and fitted with air conditioning throughout. The kitchen comes fully equipped, while built-in wardrobes in each bedroom eliminate the need for freestanding furniture. A private garage provides covered parking for one vehicle, and a separate storage room solves the perennial coastal problem of where to keep beach equipment, golf clubs, and seasonal items. The living and dining area opens directly onto the patio, extending the usable living space by roughly a third when the weather allows.
Paraiso Barronal is a gated residential complex with a communal pool, landscaped gardens, tennis courts, gym, spa facilities, and 24-hour security. El Paraiso Golf Club sits less than five minutes' walk away, with three 18-hole courses within a 10-minute drive for those who take the game seriously. The townhouse dates from 2005 and remains in good condition, requiring no immediate work beyond whatever personalisation a new owner might want to undertake.

Buying this townhouse in El Paraíso Barronal
Can foreigners buy property in Paraiso Barronal?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Paraiso Barronal. 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 Paraiso Barronal?
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.
