About this property
Overview
Four-bedroom penthouse with beachfront position in Torremolinos, Costa del Sol. This south-facing residence commands direct sea views across the bay of Málaga from a 111-square-metre terrace that extends the full width of the property. Built in 2025, the 183-square-metre interior delivers four bedrooms and three bathrooms across a layout designed to maximise natural light and coastal aspect.
The principal bedroom suite occupies one wing, whilst three further bedrooms share two bathrooms and a separate WC. Floor-to-ceiling glass opens the living spaces onto the terrace, where the outdoor area provides sufficient space for dining, lounging, and year-round entertaining. The kitchen integrates with the main reception room, and the property includes a dedicated storage room alongside one allocated parking space. South orientation ensures sunlight throughout the day, and the complex swimming pool features underwater lighting for evening use.
Los Álamos sits directly opposite the beach in one of Torremolinos' quieter residential pockets, where the promenade stretches in both directions without the density of the town centre. The complex includes maintained gardens and a multipurpose room for residents. Málaga city centre lies 20 kilometres northeast along the coastal motorway, placing the airport 15 minutes away by car. The immediate surroundings provide restaurants, supermarkets, and beach clubs within walking distance, whilst the property's position on the sand eliminates the need for a vehicle to access the Mediterranean.

9 questions answered
Buying this penthouse in Los Álamos
Can foreigners buy property in Los Álamos?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Los Álamos. 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 Los Álamos?
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.
