About this property

Overview

Altezza Suites is a new development of 2 to 4-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Estepona, Costa del Sol, priced from €725,000 to €2,150,000. The project comprises 72 apartments and penthouses designed by Villarroel, an architectural practice with over 50 years of experience in integrating residential buildings with their natural surroundings. The development occupies a hillside position that delivers both sea and mountain views across the properties, a combination that remains relatively uncommon in Estepona's expanding new build market. The gated complex includes 24-hour security, which addresses a specific concern among international buyers purchasing off-plan in areas undergoing rapid construction.

Built sizes range from 118 to 222 m², with layouts configured as open-plan living spaces that extend onto large terraces designed for outdoor use throughout the year. Bathroom counts vary from one to four depending on the unit, reflecting the range from compact two-bedroom apartments to larger four-bedroom configurations. Communal facilities include two outdoor swimming pools, an indoor pool, a fully equipped gymnasium, sauna, and hammam. The landscaped gardens form part of the shared grounds. The architectural approach prioritises the relationship between interior volumes and the surrounding landscape, a principle that influences both the building orientation and the proportion of glazing used across the facades.

Estepona town centre lies approximately 6 kilometres from the development, a drive of around 10 minutes depending on traffic through the expanding western suburbs. The area attracts a mix of northern European retirees seeking year-round residence and families from Madrid or Seville purchasing second homes within reach of international schools along the coast. Estepona has seen considerable construction activity over the past five years, with new developments extending inland from the beachfront as available coastal plots become scarce. The hillside location means road access involves navigating residential streets that can become congested during peak summer months, though this elevation is precisely what secures the views that define the project's appeal. Buyers should verify mobile network coverage and internet infrastructure if remote working is a consideration, as some elevated zones in this part of Estepona still experience variable connectivity.

This is an off-plan purchase. 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. All amounts and payment schedules must be confirmed directly with the developer, as these can vary between units and may be subject to negotiation depending on market conditions at the time of reservation. Independent legal representation is essential, particularly for reviewing the purchase contract, verifying building licences, and ensuring that bank guarantees are in place to protect stage payments. Ground floor apartments in hillside developments often include private garden areas, so buyers should clarify whether external terrace space is exclusive-use or communal, as this affects both enjoyment and resale value.

Buying off-plan in Estepona 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.
