About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom townhouse with beachfront position in Elviria, Costa del Sol. This new-build residence sits just 200 metres from the sand, placing the Mediterranean shoreline within a two-minute walk. The east and south-east orientation captures morning light across the ground-floor living space and filters natural brightness through the upper bedrooms throughout the day.
The 120sqm interior unfolds across two levels, beginning with an open-plan living room and kitchen on the ground floor, complemented by a guest toilet. Upstairs, three bedrooms include one en suite, with an additional bathroom serving the remaining two rooms. The 84sqm of terrace space more than doubles the outdoor living area relative to the plot footprint, providing multiple zones for dining, lounging and morning coffee. Part-furnished delivery includes selected pieces, whilst the underground garage holds one allocated parking space. Completion is scheduled for 2026, with finishes specified to a high standard throughout.
Estrella del Mar offers residents a communal pool and gym within the gated grounds. The development occupies a prime stretch of Elviria's coastline, with Playa de Elviria – one of the Costa del Sol's quieter sandy beaches – reachable in under three minutes on foot. Elviria's commercial centre, home to supermarkets, restaurants and services, lies 1.5 kilometres west along the coast road. Marbella's old town sits 12 kilometres to the west, whilst Málaga Airport is accessible in 35 minutes via the A-7. The property's completion date aligns with the final phase of construction across the complex.

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