About this place
This three-story village house in Benarrabá, situated in the Genal Valley of Málaga, offers a substantial internal area of approximately 250 m² across two separate buildings, divided by a courtyard. The property boasts two exposures and two interior courtyards, allowing for abundant natural light.
The first building is a single-story structure with an attic, which is in poor condition and requires complete renovation. The second building, while older, has been partially renovated in recent years and is in fairly good condition, though the roof needs replacing along with upgraded waterproofing and insulation.
With two entrances on the same street and a third access point via a back street, the property has potential for transformation into two or even three independent houses. Located in the heart of the village, it provides car access from both fronts and stunning views of the surrounding valley.

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
