Prime 12,563 m² Plot For Sale in La Zagaleta Benahavis

Plot & Build Potential

Two adjoining residential parcels form the offering, with a combined area of 12,563 m². Their separate sizes of 6,053 m² and 6,510 m² allow a buyer to explore a project across neighbouring plots, subject to the applicable planning and estate requirements.

A basic project has been prepared for two building permits, and the land is offered with the possibility of considering one or two villas. The previous licence has expired, so an existing project should be reviewed as a starting point for professional assessment rather than treated as current permission to build.

Before committing to a particular design, a buyer should establish the permitted building envelope, access, services and approval process with the relevant professionals. These checks will determine what can be delivered on each parcel and the practical steps needed to move a project forward.

Terrace & Views at this Plot for sale in La Zagaleta Benahavis

The two parcels have a south-facing orientation. Their adjoining position creates scope to consider the relationship between future buildings and outdoor areas as part of one coordinated design process, subject to approvals.

The offering is residential land rather than a completed home with finished terraces or gardens. The layout and extent of any future outdoor facilities will depend on the eventual design and the permissions obtained.

Community & Location

The plots are located within La Zagaleta, Benahavis, placing the project in a clearly defined estate setting. The two neighbouring parcels provide the land component of the opportunity; future construction must also respond to the estate’s applicable requirements.

For a land purchase, the practical review extends beyond a house design to include estate charges, access arrangements and services. Exact property-specific ongoing costs remain to be established as part of the purchase assessment.

FAQs

• How much are the total purchase costs?
  Using a resale purchase-cost allowance, allow around 10% on top of the purchase price, including 7% ITP and approximately 3% in legal and registration costs. On €8,000,000, this gives approximately €800,000 in purchase costs and a total estimated budget of €8,800,000. The seller’s tax status and the treatment of this land transaction must be checked before relying on that allowance. At recent ECB reference exchange rates, the estimated total budget is approximately £7,337,000 or $9,831,000. We’ll confirm exact figures when making an offer.
• Is there a current building licence?
  No. The previous licence has expired. Current permissions and any requirements for a new application must be confirmed before construction.
• Can two villas be built?
  A basic project exists for two building permits, and the plots are offered for consideration of one or two villas. This does not establish current approval; the permitted scheme must be verified.
• What are the individual plot sizes?
  The two adjoining parcels measure 6,053 m² and 6,510 m², totalling 12,563 m².
