About this property
Four-bedroom townhouse with beachfront position in Manilva, Costa del Sol. This 2022-built property sits directly on the shoreline, offering uninterrupted views across the Mediterranean to Gibraltar and Morocco's Atlas Mountains from its 86sqm of south-facing terraces. The beachfront location means you step from the complex straight onto the sand.
Inside, 160sqm of living space includes four bedrooms and three bathrooms distributed across multiple levels. The layout separates sleeping quarters from entertaining areas, with the master suite occupying its own floor. A private garage provides secure parking for one vehicle, whilst the fully furnished interiors are move-in ready. The south orientation floods rooms with natural light throughout the day, and floor-to-ceiling windows in the main living areas frame the sea views. Outside, the terrace space divides into separate zones for dining and lounging, with direct sightlines to the water from both levels.
The property sits within a gated development with a communal swimming pool, positioned between Manilva's quiet residential streets and the beach itself. Sotogrande marina lies 15 minutes east by car, offering berths for superyachts alongside waterfront restaurants and boutiques. Estepona town centre sits the same distance west, whilst the immediate surroundings provide local shops and beachfront dining within walking distance.

9 questions answered
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Manilva. 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.
