About this property

Overview

Camarate Hills II is a new development of 2 to 3-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Casares, Costa del Sol, priced from €305,000 to €520,000. This 36-unit scheme sits adjacent to the Sierra Bermeja Nature Park, positioning buyers between coastal access and mountain terrain at a price point roughly 30% below comparable new builds closer to Estepona's centre. Each ground floor apartment includes a private garden, a specification that distinguishes this project from the typical terrace-only format common in the area. The development's layout follows the natural slope of the plot, which the architects have used to orient units towards sea and mountain views rather than fighting the topography with flat terracing.

Built sizes range from 86 to 120 m² across the two and three-bedroom configurations. All apartments include two bathrooms, an equipped kitchen, and large terraces that extend the usable living space. The gated community offers a shared swimming pool, landscaped gardens, and a children's playground. Each unit comes with one garage space and a storage room, both included in the purchase price. Hot water is supplied by aerothermic systems, which use ambient air temperature to reduce running costs compared to conventional electric or gas heating. The development includes pre-installation for electric vehicle charging points in the garage areas. Ground floor apartments benefit from direct access to private garden space, while the communal areas are designed to integrate with the surrounding landscape rather than impose a separate aesthetic.

Casares itself sits inland from the coast, roughly 15 minutes by car from the beaches at Casares Costa and 20 minutes from Estepona's marina and town centre. The municipality covers both mountain and coastal territory, which means buyers here access two distinct environments without relocating. Manilva, 12 kilometres to the west, offers additional supermarkets and services. The Sierra Bermeja Nature Park begins immediately behind the development, providing hiking routes that reach 1,449 metres at the peak of Los Reales. Buyers in Casares tend to prioritise space and budget over beachfront proximity. The village itself is a working Andalusian town rather than a resort, which affects both the community feel and the resale market. Road access involves a climb from the coast, and winter fog can settle in the higher areas.

This is a new build project currently under construction, with completion expected in phases over the coming months. The standard Spanish payment structure applies: a reservation deposit secures the unit, followed by stage payments tied to construction milestones, with the balance due on completion when keys are handed over. Exact amounts and schedules must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is strongly recommended to review contracts and ensure all payments are protected under Spanish law. Buyers should verify whether the quoted price includes VAT at 10% for new builds or if this will be added at completion.

Camarate Hills II: Frequently Asked Questions

The price covers the apartment itself, a private garage, and either a private garden or access to communal facilities depending on which unit you choose at Camarate Hills II. All ground floor apartments come with these core features, though the exact layout and garden size vary between the 2 and 3 bedroom options.

Camarate Hills II is situated in Casares on the Costa del Sol, a quieter area west of Marbella known for its white villages and natural surroundings. The location offers easy access to both the coast and the Casares town center, with good road connections to other parts of the Costa del Sol.

Camarate Hills II offers 2 and 3 bedroom ground floor apartments ranging from 86 to 120 square meters. The 2 bedroom units start at the smaller end of that range, while the 3 bedroom options provide more space for families or those needing a home office.

Yes, Camarate Hills II features sea views from the apartments, which is one of the main selling points of this development. Combined with the private gardens on ground floor units, these views create a direct connection to the coastal landscape from your home.

Camarate Hills II is expected to be completed in September 2027, giving you nearly three years from now. This timeline allows for quality construction while giving buyers time to arrange financing and plan their move to the Costa del Sol.

Buying off-plan in Casares means reserving a property before or during construction. You pay a reservation deposit (typically €6,000 to €12,000), then sign a private purchase contract within 30 days and pay a further 10 to 20% of the purchase price. Staged payments follow the construction milestones. The final 60 to 70% is paid at notary completion when the keys are handed over.

Under Spanish law (Law 57/1968 and its 2015 successor), all off-plan deposits must be covered by a bank guarantee or insurance policy. Your lawyer must verify this before you pay any money. If the developer fails to deliver, you can claim 100% of your deposit plus 6% annual interest. Never transfer funds without a confirmed guarantee in your name.

Spanish law mandates three tiers: a 10-year structural guarantee (Seguro Decenal) for serious structural defects, a 3-year guarantee for habitability issues (waterproofing, insulation, installations), and a 1-year guarantee on finishes and fixtures. These run from the date the licence of first occupation (licencia de primera ocupación) is issued.

New-build purchases are subject to 10% IVA (VAT) on the purchase price, plus 1.2% AJD (stamp duty) in Andalucía. Parking spaces or storage sold separately may attract 21% IVA. Add notary, land registry and legal fees (1 to 2%), budget 12 to 15% on top of the purchase price in total acquisition costs.

Most developers allow personalisation during the early construction phase, choices of floor tiles, kitchen units, bathroom fixtures, paint colours and sometimes layout tweaks. The window for changes is typically 3 to 6 months after signing the contract. Structural changes are rarely possible once work has started. Your sales representative will provide a customisation deadline and specification sheet.

Typical build time in coastal Spain is 18 to 30 months from licence grant to completion. Delays of 3 to 6 months are common due to weather, supply-chain or permit issues. Your contract should specify a longstop completion date and the compensation you are owed for any overrun. Always check whether the building licence has already been granted before reserving.

Key due-diligence points: (1) confirm the building licence is granted, not just applied for; (2) verify all deposits are bank-guaranteed in your name; (3) check the developer's track record and financial standing; (4) review the specification sheet and what is included in the price; (5) confirm the estimated completion date and longstop clause; (6) have an independent Spanish lawyer review the contract before you sign anything.

Yes, both are required before the final notary signing. You can reserve with a passport, but your Spanish NIE (foreigner tax number) is needed for the private purchase contract and your Spanish bank account for the staged transfers. Your lawyer can obtain your NIE with a power of attorney in 2 to 4 weeks. Open the bank account on your first trip to Spain or remotely via certain Spanish banks.

Yes. Spanish banks lend to non-residents at typical LTVs of 60 to 70% of the lower of purchase price or valuation (vs 80% for residents). Rates are competitive with the rest of the eurozone. You will need 6 months of bank statements, tax returns and proof of income, pre-approval takes 2 to 4 weeks.

Recommended for serious buyers. A mortgage in principle confirms your budget, signals credibility to sellers and shortens completion. We can introduce you to specialist non-resident mortgage brokers familiar with the local market.

Resale property in Andalucía: ITP (transfer tax) at 7%. New-build: 10% IVA + 1.2% AJD (stamp duty). Plus notary, land registry and legal fees of roughly 1 to 2%. Budget 10 to 13% on top of the asking price for total acquisition costs.

Annual IBI (council tax) is typically 0.4 to 1.1% of cadastral value. Community fees on apartments and gated villas range €100 to €600/month depending on amenities. Non-resident owners pay an annual income tax based on cadastral value, plus utilities and home insurance.

In Spain the seller pays the agent commission (typically 3 to 6% + VAT), already baked into the asking price. Buyers do not pay agent fees on resale or new-build.
