About this property
Overview
Four-bedroom townhouse in Alozaina, Costa del Sol. This 218sqm property comes with a 100sqm garage that accommodates up to four cars, a rare find in a village centre location where most parking is limited to street spaces. Built in 2010, the home sits on a quiet street accessible by car yet within a two-minute walk of the main plaza, tapas bars, and local amenities.
The ground floor houses the entrance hall and the substantial garage space. The first floor contains the main living areas: a lounge-dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a separate WC. Two additional bedrooms occupy the upper level, bringing the total to four across 218sqm of built space. A 34sqm terrace provides outdoor space. Three bathrooms serve the property, and the layout spreads across multiple floors to keep living areas cooler during summer months.
Alozaina is a working Andalusian village in the Sierra de las Nieves, 45 minutes inland from Marbella. The property stands within walking distance of the village church, public swimming pool, and gym. The surrounding terrain offers hiking routes into the mountains, while the coast remains accessible for day trips. Local tapas bars and a barber operate within the immediate vicinity of the plaza.

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