About this place
Charming Cottage-Style Villa in the Hills of Benahavís – Excellent Value Full of character and warmth, this charming cottage-style villa is located in a well-established urbanisation in the peaceful hills of Benahavís. Surrounded by nature and offering a tranquil atmosphere, the property enjoys a quiet setting while still being just a short stroll from a small commercial centre with daily amenities, restaurants, and a popular local bar. The villa is predominantly built on one level, with a few gentle steps leading to certain rooms, adding charm and character to the home. The four bedrooms are distributed across different wings of the house, offering privacy and flexibility for family members or guests. This layout also makes the property ideal as a boutique B&B or a multi-generational holiday home. Inside, the home features a cosy living room with fireplace, as well as a recently refurbished kitchen and bathrooms. Two of the bathrooms benefit from underfloor heating, adding extra comfort during the cooler months. Outdoor living is equally appealing, with several inviting spaces designed for relaxation and entertaining. A covered terrace lounge provides the perfect spot to unwind, while a separate covered BBQ and outdoor dining area is ideal for enjoying meals with family and friends. The garden also features a private swimming pool, creating a wonderful setting to enjoy the Mediterranean climate. Additional features include carport parking for two vehicles and a peaceful environment that combines privacy with everyday convenience. Offering excellent price-to-value, this delightful villa represents a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the authentic charm of Benahavís while remaining within easy reach of Marbella, the coast, and nearby golf courses.
Buying property in Spain
Spain welcomes foreign buyers with no nationality restrictions. The buyer needs an NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero) before completion, and most buyers open a Spanish bank account to handle the deposit and ongoing charges. An independent lawyer (abogado) is strongly recommended — the notario only checks the deed, not the wider title.
Spain ended its Golden Visa property route in April 2025.
Non-resident mortgages are widely available, typically 60–70% LTV.
Non-resident sellers face a 3% withholding from the sale price (retención), claimable against capital gains tax.
Always check community-of-owners (comunidad) debts and outstanding IBI before completion — they transfer with the property.
General guidance only — confirm specifics with a qualified local lawyer or tax adviser. Reference
