About this property
Overview
Four-bedroom villa with private pool in Mijas, Costa del Sol. This single-level property occupies a 2,000sqm plot on a quiet cul-de-sac in the La Alqueria urbanisation, where south-facing orientation captures mountain views across landscaped gardens. The recently upgraded pool sits within grounds that extend well beyond typical suburban plots, offering genuine privacy.
Inside, 214sqm of living space includes four bedrooms and three bathrooms, two of which are ensuite. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area flows directly onto 100sqm of terrace space, split between covered and open sections. An entrance hallway provides separation between public and private zones. The property comes unfurnished, allowing incoming owners to configure the interiors without constraint. Electric gates control access to a driveway that leads to both open parking and a single garage with adjoining storeroom.
La Alqueria sits 4km north of Fuengirola's beaches and marina, a ten-minute drive down winding roads that descend from Mijas pueblo. The urbanisation maintains a gated perimeter whilst individual properties add their own security layers. Mijas pueblo itself lies 3km further uphill, where whitewashed streets and traditional restaurants occupy the mountain ridge. The coast road connecting Fuengirola to Marbella runs 15 minutes below, providing supermarket access and weekday services without the density of beachfront developments.

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