About this property
Overview
Five-bedroom villa with beachfront position in El Chaparral, Costa del Sol. The property sits 300 metres from the golden sands of El Chaparral beach, placing morning swims and evening walks within a three-minute stroll. Extensive renovations have transformed the 300-square-metre interior into a fully furnished residence where west-facing orientation delivers afternoon light across living spaces and terraces.
The main suite occupies the top floor with a dressing room, en-suite bathroom, and a private terrace commanding coastal views towards Marbella. Four further bedrooms share three additional bathrooms across the layout. The ground level opens onto a very large living room that flows into a breakfast room and kitchen. Outside, the 1,000-square-metre plot contains a private swimming pool, multiple terraces that offer sun and shade throughout the day, and a private garage with one parking space. A huge storeroom provides additional storage, and the structure includes space for a lift. Solar panels cover the roof, generating electricity and hot water that keep running costs low. Air conditioning runs through each room.
The villa stands on a quiet road in El Chaparral, a coastal enclave where low-rise development meets open beach. Cabopino Marina lies 2 kilometres east, offering waterfront restaurants and boat moorings. The A-7 coastal road provides direct access to Marbella town centre 15 kilometres west and Fuengirola 10 kilometres east. Mountain views rise inland from the west-facing terraces, framing the Sierra Blanca range beyond the coastline.

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