About this place
This extensive 5,216m² plot is set within the ultra-exclusive residential estate of La Zagaleta Golf & Country Club, nestled in the hills of Benahavís. Just a 15-minute drive from Marbella and Puerto Banus on the Costa del Sol, this remarkable and private plot includes an architectural project designed by Pablo Villarroel, representing a rare opportunity to create an extraordinary private residence in one of Europe’s most prestigious gated communities.
The plot ensures total privacy with just one distant neighbour and has a granted building license, allowing construction to commence, subject to any alterations to the proposed plans. Located within almost 900 hectares of protected natural landscape, La Zagaleta epitomises exclusivity and tranquillity while remaining close to the beach and vibrant amenities.
A significant advantage of this plot is that a substantial amount of excavation has already been completed, with all green walls constructed and a large portion of the building platform levelled, facilitating an easy hookup to utilities. The plot offers picturesque panoramic views of the mountains and the lush surroundings of La Zagaleta.

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
