Description
A new-build villa of 174 m2 sits on a 706 m2 plot in Hipódromo-Cerrado del Águila, offering 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms across a single-storey layout. The plot provides substantial outdoor space for a property of this size, with a plot-to-build ratio that allows for private gardens and terracing. Málaga AGP airport is approximately 20 minutes away by car, making this a practical base for international owners. The development includes access to a communal pool.Hipódromo-Cerrado del Águila is a residential area of Mijas Costa situated between the A-7 coastal road and the hills inland of Fuengirola. The neighbourhood is within a short drive of the Hipódromo Costa del Sol racecourse on Avenida del Hipódromo, and the commercial strip along the N-340 provides supermarkets, restaurants and everyday services. The beaches of Las Lagunas and Carvajal are accessible by car, and Fuengirola town centre is roughly 5 kilometres to the east.At EUR 899,000, the price per square metre of build area is approximately EUR 5,167. Community fees are currently set at EUR 0 per month. The property carries an energy rating of G. As a new-build in Andalusia, the applicable purchase tax is IVA at 10%, equivalent to EUR 89,900, rather than the resale ITP rate. Mijas Costa's proximity to Málaga airport and established rental demand in the area make this a consideration for buyers exploring short-term letting options.The 706 m2 plot gives ample room for landscaping, a private terrace and garden space in addition to the communal pool facility. Ground-floor living across 174 m2 means the entire footprint of the villa connects directly to the outdoor areas. Plot boundaries and permitted outdoor structures should be confirmed with the developer prior to exchange.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the purchase costs on top of the EUR 899,000 asking price?
As a new-build property, IVA at 10% applies instead of ITP, which adds EUR 89,900. You should also budget for notary fees of approximately EUR 600–1,200, land registry fees of approximately EUR 400–800, and legal fees of around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT (roughly EUR 9,000–10,800 including VAT). Total purchase costs typically fall between EUR 100,000 and EUR 112,000 on top of the asking price.
Can non-residents get a mortgage on this property?
Yes. Spanish banks generally lend up to 60–70% of the purchase price to non-residents, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is typically required. On EUR 899,000 that equates to approximately EUR 270,000–360,000. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain range from around 3.5% to 4.5% depending on the lender and applicant profile. We can refer you to a Spanish mortgage broker for indicative terms.
What are the ongoing running costs for this villa?
Community fees are currently EUR 0 per month. The annual IBI (council tax) figure is not yet confirmed for this new-build and should be requested from the developer or local town hall before completion. A basura (refuse collection) charge will also apply annually; the exact amount is subject to confirmation. The property holds an energy rating of G, so heating and cooling costs may be higher than for a more efficient build.
Can I arrange a viewing, and are remote viewings possible?
In-person viewings can be arranged by contacting the OceanHome team directly. If you are based outside Spain, we can also organise a live video viewing via WhatsApp or video call, allowing you to tour the property and ask questions in real time before committing to travel.
What is the rental potential for this villa?
Mijas Costa sits within a high-demand tourist corridor between Málaga and Marbella. Villas with private or communal pool access in the Hipódromo-Cerrado del Águila area attract both short-term holiday lets and longer-term rentals from international residents. To legally let the property on a short-term basis in Andalusia, you will need to register for a tourist licence (VITUR) through the Junta de Andalucía. We recommend speaking to a local letting agent for current market rental figures.
What steps are involved in buying this property?
First, you will need a Spanish NIE (tax identification number), which can be obtained at a Spanish consulate or in Spain with a lawyer's assistance. Once you agree a price, a reservation contract is signed and a deposit of around EUR 6,000–10,000 is typically paid to take the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) where a further deposit, usually 10%, is paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, at which point the remaining balance and all purchase taxes are settled. We strongly recommend appointing an independent Spanish solicitor throughout the process.
