About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom villa with private pool in La Mairena, Costa del Sol. Built in 2021, this southeast-facing property captures morning light across its 114-square-metre terrace, where the mountain range provides a natural backdrop. The private pool sits within an 89-square-metre plot, creating an intimate outdoor space that balances privacy with the surrounding Sierra de las Nieves landscape.
Inside, 294 square metres of living space spreads across three bedrooms and three bathrooms. The southeast orientation channels natural light through the main living areas throughout the day. The property remains unfurnished, offering a blank canvas for personalisation. One allocated parking space comes with the villa. The terrace wraps around the property's footprint, providing 114 square metres of outdoor living space that connects directly to the pool area and garden.
La Mairena sits within the Sierra de las Nieves UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, where marked hiking trails wind through Mediterranean forest just beyond the urbanisation. Marbella town centre lies 15 minutes away by car, while the mountain villages of Ojén and Mijas are both within a 20-minute drive. The urbanisation maintains communal gardens and a shared pool alongside individual properties, with the mountain range visible from most vantage points across the development.

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