About this place
Introducing a unique opportunity to acquire the last buildable plot in Urbanización El Castillo, one of Fuengirola's most desirable residential areas. Surrounded by elegant villas with private pools and lush gardens, this plot stands out as the only undeveloped land remaining, making it a genuinely rare find.
With full planning permission already in place, buyers can avoid the usual planning risks. The land falls under the Suelo Urbano Consolidado classification and allows for a buildable area of approximately 600 m², giving the potential for up to four detached villas, each with their own private pool, garden, and parking for two vehicles. The maximum height of the development can reach 7 metres, allowing for basement, ground floor, and one upper floor.
The strategic location situates the plot on the elevated southern edge of Fuengirola, just 200 metres from the historical Castillo Sohail and around 400 metres to the beach. The motorway provides quick access to Málaga Costa del Sol Airport in about 25 minutes, featuring direct flights to over sixty European destinations. This plot offers exceptional flexibility for development, whether for creating a luxury villa or a boutique villa development, making it an excellent investment opportunity.

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
