About this place
Located in the sought-after residential area of Marbesa, Marbella, this charming Andalusian villa presents an exceptional opportunity just 300 metres from the Mediterranean Sea. With approximately 151.74 m² of registered built area, the villa encompasses a main residential floor and a semi-basement that serves as a garage and storage space.
One of the distinguishing features of this property is its development potential. A project has already been prepared, and the plot has been professionally surveyed, laying the groundwork for the construction of a considerably larger contemporary residence. The plot measures 653 m², with a proposed built area of 295 m², including a private swimming pool.
With the beach a mere stroll away and Marbella's renowned amenities—restaurants, beach clubs, and golf courses—within easy reach, this villa offers a unique chance to create a bespoke home in an established beachside neighbourhood. As the area undergoes transformation with the rise of luxurious new builds, this property stands out as an attractive investment, especially as comparable new or redeveloped villas are valued at around €4,000,000.

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
