About this property
Four-bedroom apartment with sea views in Torremolinos, Costa del Sol. This 159sqm residence occupies an entire floor of its building, created by combining and fully renovating two separate units to deliver exceptional privacy and cross-ventilation throughout. The open-plan design connects a spacious lounge and dining area to a modern kitchen fitted with high-end appliances, all overlooking the Mediterranean from multiple vantage points.
The accommodation includes four bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which features a double rainfall shower and generous proportions. A 9sqm terrace extends the living space outdoors, positioned to capture sea views and morning light. The property comes fully furnished and benefits from a separate laundry area, while the floor-through layout ensures natural light reaches every room. With no neighbouring apartments sharing the same landing, the sense of space and seclusion is amplified beyond what the square meterage alone suggests.
The building sits within walking distance of La Carihuela beach, one of Torremolinos' most established coastal stretches, and Puerto Marina lies approximately 1.5 kilometres to the southwest. The apartment's elevated position provides unobstructed sightlines to the sea while keeping the town centre and its transport links within a five-minute drive. The building's location places both the beachfront promenade and the marina's restaurants within easy reach on foot.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
