Property Overview
An exclusive sanctuary.
Set in a quiet and private part of Nueva Andalucía, Villa Blanc sits on a generous double plot with a southwest orientation, enjoying plenty of sun throughout the day along with beautiful mountain and sunset views.

Inside, there are four en-suite bedrooms and a guest toilet. Three of the bedrooms are on the entrance level, while the fourth is upstairs, together with a separate cinema room that could also be used as a home office. Wooden floors in the bedrooms bring warmth to the interiors, while the bathrooms have underfloor heating for added comfort. Bespoke carpentry throughout the villa also provides plenty of practical storage. The main living space is open-plan, bringing together the kitchen, dining and lounge areas.

What are the implications of proposed taxes on non-EU buyers?+
Spain has considered implementing a 100% tax on properties bought by non-EU citizens to address housing affordability issues. While not yet enacted, it’s essential to stay informed about such policy changes.
