About this place
Welcome to 'Las Golondrinas', a beautifully furnished semi-detached Cortijo located in the tranquil hamlet of Villanueva del Trabuco in Málaga. This traditional country house, dating back to approximately 1960, has been impeccably reformed and offers an inviting and relaxed atmosphere with stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
On entering, you are greeted by an Andalucian-tiled patio that leads into a cosy living room with traditional wooden ceilings and a wood-burner for warmth. The ground floor includes a well-appointed kitchen featuring granite work surfaces, integrated appliances, and a spacious dining area that connects to a bright, modern shower room. One of the ground floor rooms can serve as either a double bedroom or dining room, depending on your needs.
Upstairs, you'll find two comfortable double bedrooms with beautiful countryside views. The master bedroom is notably spacious, equipped with plenty of storage options. Outside, the tiled courtyard leads to a large sun terrace, perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying the stunning scenery. The property is ideally located just a five-minute drive from local amenities, making it a perfect lock-up-and-leave home or a potential rural tourism investment.

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
