About this property
Five-bedroom villa with private pool in Torremolinos, Costa del Sol. This fully detached property sits on a 717sqm plot in the peaceful El Pinar neighbourhood, where mature trees and quiet residential streets create a secluded atmosphere whilst keeping the coast and town centre within easy reach.
The villa spans 253sqm across two levels, with the ground floor housing an open-plan living and dining area that extends directly onto 100sqm of terrace space. All five bedrooms are generously proportioned, serviced by three bathrooms throughout, and the property comes fully furnished with quality fittings in excellent condition. The private pool occupies a central position in the landscaped garden, surrounded by low-maintenance planting and paved sun terraces. One covered parking space sits at the front of the plot, with additional room for guest vehicles on the driveway.
El Pinar is a wooded residential enclave on the northern edge of Torremolinos, favoured for its privacy and elevation above the busier coastal strip. Torremolinos town centre lies approximately 10 minutes away by car, where the beachfront promenade stretches for over 6km with beach clubs, seafood restaurants and the historic fishing quarter of La Carihuela. Málaga Airport is also 10 minutes by road via the A-7 coastal motorway, making this one of the most accessible locations on the Costa del Sol for international travel.

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