About this place
This townhouse for sale is situated in the centre of Álora, spanning an area of 232 m² across two floors. The main property contains three bedrooms, a living room, and a recently renovated kitchen. Notably, it features a solarium terrace that offers picturesque views of the Castle of Álora.
Currently, the house is styled traditionally but lacks a full bathroom, only providing a toilet. Potential buyers should plan to install a bathroom during renovations. Additionally, there is a mezzanine floor that can be transformed into a wine cellar, alongside an extra living space on the ground floor which includes a bedroom and a small kitchen, complete with a separate entrance.
This property requires updates, making it an interesting investment opportunity, further enhanced by its central location which ensures easy access to all municipal services and amenities.

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
