About this property
Overview
Four-bedroom townhouse with sea views in La Quinta, Costa del Sol. This corner position on the frontline of the golf course delivers uninterrupted views across the fairways to the Mediterranean beyond, framed by a southwest orientation that floods the interiors with light from midday through sunset. Fully renovated in 2025 with new electrical installations and premium finishes throughout, the property spans 350sqm of living space plus 134sqm of terrace.
The layout accommodates four bedrooms and four bathrooms across three levels, with the ground floor opening directly onto private garden areas. A fully fitted kitchen connects to open-plan living and dining zones, while the terrace wraps around the corner aspect to maximise sun exposure and golf views. One covered parking space sits within the secure perimeter, and a private pool occupies the rear garden. The property comes fully furnished and benefits from the elevated position within La Quinta Hills, a gated community that restricts access to residents only.
La Quinta sits 8km inland from Puerto Banús, where the marina and beach clubs line the waterfront. The townhouse occupies the frontline of the course, with tee boxes and greens visible from multiple rooms. Marbella's Golden Mile lies 15 minutes by car, and Málaga Airport sits 55km east via the AP-7. The community entrance controls vehicle access, and the corner plot borders only one adjoining property, reducing noise and overlooking from neighbouring homes.

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