About this property
Overview
Four-bedroom villa with sea views in Benalmadena, Costa del Sol. This 458sqm contemporary home captures the Mediterranean through floor-to-ceiling windows that frame uninterrupted coastal panoramas from over 128sqm of south-facing terraces. Built in 2018, the property spans three levels connected by a private lift, placing every room within easy reach whilst maintaining separation between living and sleeping zones.
The open-plan ground floor centres on a designer kitchen fitted with BOSCH appliances, flowing directly onto the main terrace where the sea stretches to the horizon. All four bedrooms include en-suite bathrooms with underfloor heating, and the property comes fully furnished to move-in standard. A 246sqm plot accommodates outdoor space without excessive maintenance, and one parking space is included. Seventeen solar panels supply the aerothermal climate control system, cutting energy costs whilst double-glazed windows maintain year-round comfort in the south-east and south-facing rooms.
The villa sits within the BigBlue complex in Torremuelle, where residents access an infinity pool, private gym, and landscaped gardens. Benalmadena Marina lies 2km down the coast, its waterfront restaurants and yacht moorings reachable in five minutes by car. The property occupies an elevated position that delivers both sea and mountain views from the upper terraces, with Malaga Airport 15 minutes along the A-7.

9 questions answered
Buying this villa in Benalmadena
Can foreigners buy property in Benalmádena?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Benalmádena. 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 Benalmádena?
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.
