About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom villa with private pool in Torremolinos, Costa del Sol. This 400sqm detached property sits just 50 metres from Los Álamos Beach, placing the shoreline within a one-minute walk. Built in 1980 and maintained in good condition, the villa combines generous proportions with immediate coastal access, making it equally suited to year-round living or extended Mediterranean stays.
Inside, the layout centres on a light-filled living room that connects the three double bedrooms and two bathrooms across a single level. The separate kitchen provides dedicated cooking space away from entertaining areas, whilst the 15sqm terrace extends the living area outdoors. Natural light reaches most rooms throughout the day, and the property comes fully furnished, allowing immediate occupation. A private pool occupies part of the grounds, and one allocated parking space is included with the villa.
The property stands in central Torremolinos, with Los Álamos Beach accessible in under a minute on foot. Torremolinos town centre lies 1.5 kilometres north, reachable in five minutes by car, where the Bajondillo promenade, restaurants and the commuter rail line provide daily amenities and connections along the Costa del Sol. The villa's beachfront position places several chiringuitos and the coastal walkway within immediate reach.

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