About this place
Presenting a unique chance to acquire one of the few predominantly flat plots within the prestigious Monte Mayor community in Benahavís. This south-west facing plot measures 4,570 m² and boasts spectacular panoramic sea views, making it an ideal location for your dream home.
With a buildability allowance of 12.2%, the plot can accommodate approximately 557 m² above ground, pending planning approval. The current owner has an existing villa design for a total of approximately 1,300 m², including a basement; however, the original building licence has expired, and a new application may need to be submitted. Alternatively, potential buyers can create a new design tailored to their preferences.
The flat terrain of this plot offers several benefits: easier construction, increased usable outdoor space, and potentially lower excavation and retaining-wall costs. Additionally, there is an opportunity to purchase an adjacent plot of approximately 3,127 m² from the same owner, allowing for a total combined landholding of approximately 7,697 m². Monte Mayor enhances its appeal with 24-hour security, ensuring privacy amidst breathtaking mountain, valley, and sea views, all while being a short drive of 8-10 minutes from the coast and conveniently close to Benahavís, Marbella, Estepona, golf courses, beaches, and international schools.

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
