About this property
Four-bedroom villa with sea views in Torreblanca, Costa del Sol. The upper-floor primary suite delivers those views through floor-to-ceiling glass, with a walk-in dressing area and private ensuite where morning light tracks across the coastline below.
Inside, 176 square metres of living space spreads across two floors. The ground floor holds three further bedrooms, a family bathroom, a generous lounge, and a kitchen with room to reconfigure. Outside, 60 square metres of terrace wraps around the south and southwest elevations, catching sun from mid-morning through to evening. The 262-square-metre plot includes a private pool and parking for up to five vehicles, with space wide enough for a motorhome, trailer, or multiple cars side by side. The villa is part-furnished and holds fair condition throughout, offering scope to modernise finishes while retaining the existing layout.
Torreblanca sits on a quiet residential slope 1.5 kilometres inland from Fuengirola's beachfront promenade, where the Paseo Marítimo runs for seven kilometres between seafood restaurants and beach clubs. The AP-7 motorway lies three minutes north by car, connecting Málaga Airport in 20 minutes and Marbella in 25. Local supermarkets, pharmacies, and the Torreblanca train station all fall within a ten-minute walk, with direct services to Málaga Centro running every 20 minutes during the day.

Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Torreblanca. 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.
