About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom villa with private pool in San Pedro de Alcántara, Costa del Sol. This 159-square-metre property sits less than 200 metres from the beach, placing the Mediterranean shoreline within a two-minute walk. The villa requires full renovation, offering a blank canvas for buyers seeking to create a contemporary coastal residence or capitalise on the area's strong development market.
The property provides three bedrooms and two bathrooms across its built area, with a private pool and one parking space included. The 159-square-metre footprint allows scope for reconfiguration or extension, subject to planning permissions. Recent neighbouring developments have demonstrated the location's capacity to support high-specification villa projects. The site arrives unfurnished, enabling complete design freedom from structural layout through to interior finishes.
San Pedro de Alcántara's beachside quarter has become one of the Costa del Sol's most active renovation zones, with original properties being transformed into modern villas. The boulevard promenade lies 200 metres away, connecting to San Pedro town centre in a 10-minute walk westward. Marbella's Golden Mile begins 4 kilometres east along the coastal road, whilst Puerto Banús marina sits 3 kilometres in the opposite direction. The plot's beachside position places morning coffee within sight of the sea and evening walks along the sand within immediate reach.

Buying this villa in San Pedro de Alcántara
Can foreigners buy property in San Pedro de Alcántara?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in San Pedro de Alcántara. 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 San Pedro de Alcántara?
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.
