About this property
Overview
Four-bedroom townhouse with beachfront position in San Pedro de Alcántara, Costa del Sol. Direct access to the sand means morning swims before breakfast and evening walks along the shore without crossing a single road. The 40-square-metre terrace extends the living space outdoors and includes an outdoor shower for rinsing off after beach days.
The 175-square-metre interior unfolds across three levels. The ground floor holds a fully equipped kitchen, a bathroom with shower, and a living-dining area with fireplace and sliding glass doors that open onto the terrace. The first floor contains three bedrooms, including a master with en-suite bathroom, while the remaining two bedrooms share a separate bathroom. The top floor provides a fourth bedroom with additional privacy and separation from the main sleeping level. One parking space is included.
Guadalvillas is a gated beachfront community with swimming pool, landscaped gardens and 24-hour security. The complex sits directly on the San Pedro beach, a three-kilometre stretch of golden sand that runs west towards Estepona. San Pedro town centre lies 1.5 kilometres inland, a five-minute drive for supermarkets, restaurants and the weekly street market. The property was built in 1990 and comprises four bathrooms across the three floors.

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