About this property
Overview
Five-bedroom villa in Costa del Sol East, Rincón de la Victoria, Costa del Sol, offering 800 square metres of private corner plot with space to expand or reconfigure. The ground floor centres on a 125-square-metre open-plan living area with 4.5-metre ceilings, flooding the room with eastern light and creating a sense of volume rare in properties of this size. A modern kitchen anchors the space with a large central island designed for preparation and informal dining.
The five bedrooms spread across two floors, with the master suite occupying its own wing and featuring a natural stone accent wall, walk-in dressing room, and private en-suite bathroom. Three bathrooms serve the property in total. The layout separates sleeping quarters from communal areas, with the upper level providing 160 square metres of usable living space. A 300-square-metre gallery runs beneath the main house with independent access, offering scope to convert the area into a self-contained apartment or guest accommodation without compromising the primary residence.
The villa sits on a corner plot in a residential zone 2.5 kilometres north of Rincón de la Victoria town centre, where the promenade meets a working fishing harbour. East-facing orientation captures morning sun across the front elevation and garden. The property was built in 2000 and remains in good structural condition, though it is sold unfurnished. Málaga city centre lies 18 kilometres west along the A-7 coastal motorway, placing the airport within a 25-minute drive.

Buying this villa in Costa del Sol East
Can foreigners buy property in Rincón de la Victoria?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Rincón de la Victoria. 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 Rincón de la Victoria?
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.
