About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom townhouse with sea views in La Quinta, Costa del Sol. This recently renovated property commands views across the Mediterranean from its 49-square-metre rooftop solarium, where the south-west orientation delivers afternoon sun and evening light across the coastline. Completed in 2024, the three-level layout blends clean Scandinavian lines with Mediterranean warmth through natural materials and a muted palette that runs throughout the 164 square metres of interior space.
The ground floor opens to an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area that maximises natural light and connects the social spaces without visual interruption. Three bedrooms occupy the upper levels, with the principal bedroom featuring an en-suite bathroom and direct access to the solarium. A second full bathroom and guest toilet serve the remaining bedrooms and communal areas. The property includes a private parking space, air conditioning, and comes fully furnished with pieces selected to complement the minimalist aesthetic. A 32-square-metre private terrace extends the living space outdoors.
The townhouse sits within La Quinta Hills, a gated community in Benahavís with maintained communal gardens and a shared swimming pool. La Quinta Golf & Country Club lies less than one kilometre away, whilst Puerto Banús marina is a twelve-minute drive down the coast. The elevated position places the property above the coastal development, with mountain views framing the northern aspect and the golf valley visible from the upper floors.

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