About this property
Overview
Five-bedroom townhouse with sea views in Cabopino, Costa del Sol. The views stretch across the Mediterranean from 163 square metres of terrace space spread across multiple levels, offering outdoor living areas that exceed the interior footprint. Built in 2014, this 127-square-metre property arrives fully furnished and ready for immediate use.
Inside, the layout distributes five bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms across three floors, with the master suite occupying its own level for privacy. The kitchen connects to the main terrace through glass doors, extending the usable space during temperate months. A private garage provides secure parking for one vehicle, whilst the ground-floor entrance opens directly onto communal gardens. Air conditioning runs throughout, and the property includes a utility room separate from the main kitchen area. The terraces wrap around the building, creating distinct zones for dining, lounging and morning coffee with unobstructed sightlines to the water.
Royal Cabopino sits within a gated complex offering 24-hour security, two communal pools and manicured Mediterranean gardens planted with native species. Cabopino Golf Course borders the development to the north, with the first tee less than 400 metres from the front gate. The protected Artola Dunes and their Blue Flag beach lie 600 metres south, accessible via a paved footpath that cuts through pine forest. Cabopino Marina, with its collection of seafood restaurants and boat moorings, sits a seven-minute walk from the property, whilst central Marbella remains 15 minutes away by car along the A-7 coastal road.

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