Description

A new-build penthouse on Benalmádena's front-line beach strip, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom property offers 180 m2 of interior space across a single top-floor position. The development is new construction, meaning it qualifies for IVA rather than resale transfer tax. Three bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms are arranged over the 180 m2 floor plan, with access to a communal pool within the development.The 1ª Línea de Playa neighbourhood in Benalmádena sits directly on the Costa del Sol coastline, placing residents within walking distance of Playa de Santa Ana and the seafront promenade that runs west towards Torremolinos. The Arroyo de la Miel commercial area, with its supermarkets, restaurants and local shops, is less than 2 km inland, and Benalmádena Marina is within easy reach along the coastal road. Málaga Airport (AGP) is approximately 20 minutes by car.Priced at EUR 1,040,000, the property works out to approximately EUR 5,778 per m2, which reflects its front-line location and new-build specification. As a new build, IVA applies at 10%, adding EUR 104,000, with notary fees estimated at EUR 600 to 1,200, land registry fees of EUR 400 to 800, and legal costs of roughly 1% plus VAT. No community fees are currently registered, and IBI figures are not yet available for this new development. The energy rating is G. Given the 1ª Línea de Playa location in a high-demand tourist zone, the property carries strong short-term rental potential subject to the applicable Andalusian tourist licence regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the purchase costs on top of the asking price?
As a new-build property, IVA at 10% applies instead of resale transfer tax, adding EUR 104,000 to the EUR 1,040,000 price. Notary fees are typically EUR 600 to 1,200, land registry fees EUR 400 to 800, and legal fees around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (approximately EUR 10,400 plus VAT). Budget for total purchase costs of roughly 12 to 13% above the asking price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish lenders generally offer non-residents up to 60 to 70% loan-to-value on a property of this type, meaning a deposit of 30 to 40% (EUR 312,000 to EUR 416,000) would be required. Variable and fixed mortgage rates currently range between 3.5% and 4.5% depending on the lender and term. You will also need a Spanish NIE number before a mortgage can be formalised.
What are the ongoing running costs?
No community fees are currently registered for this development. IBI (council tax) figures are not yet available as this is a new build; an estimated figure will be provided by the agent once the catastral valuation is set. Basura (waste collection) charges are set by the local municipality and will apply once the property is registered.
Can I arrange a viewing, and is a remote viewing possible?
Yes. In-person viewings can be arranged through OceanHome at a time that suits you. If you are unable to travel to Benalmádena, we can also organise a live video viewing so you can walk through the development remotely and ask questions in real time. Contact us to confirm availability.
What is the rental potential of this property?
Properties in the 1ª Línea de Playa area of Benalmádena are in consistent demand for short-term holiday rentals given the direct beach access and proximity to Málaga Airport. To let legally on a short-term basis in Andalusia, you must register for a Vivienda con Fines Turísticos (VFT) licence with the Junta de Andalucía. OceanHome can provide further guidance on the application process and current market rental demand in this neighbourhood.
What does the purchase process involve?
The first step is obtaining a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which is required for all property transactions. Once you have agreed the price, a reservation contract is signed and a holding deposit is paid, typically EUR 3,000 to 6,000. This is followed by a private purchase contract (contrato de arras) where usually 10% of the price is paid and the completion date is set. The transaction is finalised before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance and all associated taxes and fees are paid and the title deeds are signed.
