About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom townhouse with private pool in El Paraíso, Costa del Sol. Spread across four levels, this top-floor property commands mountain views from multiple vantage points and includes a 90-square-metre basement ready to convert into a cinema room, gym, or guest suite. The home sits within a gated complex with 24-hour security and offers direct garden access through a private lockable gate.
The ground floor opens with a fully fitted kitchen, guest toilet, and an open-plan living and dining area that extends onto a covered terrace overlooking the private garden. Three double bedrooms occupy the upper level, each with its own en-suite bathroom and built-in wardrobes, while the master suite includes a private terrace. The basement level provides 90 square metres of adaptable space with natural light, currently used as a lounge but designed to accommodate a fourth bedroom, games room, or home office. One allocated parking space comes with the property, and the 236-square-metre build includes 10 square metres of terrace space across multiple levels.
Mirador del Paraíso sits within El Paraíso's residential hillside, surrounded by manicured communal gardens, water features, and a shared swimming pool. El Paraíso Golf Club lies 800 metres from the complex entrance, while the beaches and restaurants of Cancelada are a four-minute drive down the A-7 coastal road. The property was completed in 2009 and maintains the original specification throughout all four floors.

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