A rooftop solarium sits at the top of the property, providing open views of the surrounding hills. Private parking is included on the plot, and the villa carries no community fees. Each bedroom has built-in wardrobes, and air conditioning is fitted throughout.Pla de Cantal is a residential area on the southern edge of Polop, a town in the Alicante province roughly 12 kilometres inland from Benidorm. The old town of Polop, with its castle ruins, street market, and main square, is within a short drive. Alicante-Elche Airport is approximately 35 minutes away by car, making the location practical for owners travelling regularly between Spain and the UK.The villa is a new build, so the purchase attracts IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.4%, both set by the Valencian Community.

The rooftop solarium adds a usable upper terrace with mountain views. Private parking is set to the front of the property.

Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond the asking price?
As a new build in the Valencian Community, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.4%. ITP does not apply. On top of those taxes, allow roughly EUR 600–1,200 for the notary, EUR 400–800 for land registry, and around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT for a solicitor. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the Valencian Community's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — so it is worth checking before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident buyer?
Spanish lenders typically offer non-residents up to 60–70% of the purchase price or valuation (whichever is lower), meaning you should plan for a deposit of around 30–40%. Current variable and fixed mortgage rates in Spain generally sit in the 3.5–4.5% range, though the rate offered will depend on your financial profile and the lender. We can connect you with an independent mortgage broker who works with international buyers.
What are the ongoing running costs?
This villa carries no community fees. IBI (annual council tax) and basura (refuse) figures are not yet available for this new-build property; your solicitor or the agent can request the projected IBI assessment from the local authority. There are no lift maintenance or pool service charges attached to this property.
Can I view the property remotely before travelling to Spain?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel immediately. A member of our team will walk through the villa and plot on a live video call, covering the interior layout, rooftop solarium, and the surrounding Pla de Cantal area. Contact us to arrange a time that suits your schedule.
Is this villa suitable as a rental investment?
Polop and the wider Alicante inland area attract both long-term residents and visitors using Benidorm as a base. A tourist rental licence would be required to let the property on a short-term basis, and licences in the Valencian Community are subject to municipal rules. We recommend speaking with a local solicitor before purchasing with a rental strategy in mind. We do not quote yield projections as these depend on occupancy, management costs, and local demand.
What are the main steps in the purchase process?
First, you will need an NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero), the tax identification number required for all property purchases in Spain. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation contract and deposit secures the property off the market. This is followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa), at which point a further deposit is typically paid. Completion takes place before a Spanish notary, who oversees the signing of the title deed. Your solicitor should conduct due diligence on the new-build licence and planning permissions before you commit.
