About this property

Overview

Serene Atalaya - Phase 2 - KEY READY is a new development of 3-bedroom semi-detached villas for sale in Estepona, Costa del Sol, priced from €850,000 to €900,000. These are completed properties available for immediate occupation, which removes construction risk for buyers who want to move in or generate rental income without delay. The villas are positioned on a gentle slope adjacent to Atalaya Golf & Country Club, which gives each property west-facing orientation and uninterrupted panoramic views across the golf course and surrounding landscape.

Built sizes range from 176 to 181 m² across three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Each villa includes a private garden and swimming pool. Buyers can add an optional solarium and basement, though these are not included in the base price. The layout prioritises natural light and functional separation of living spaces. The west-facing orientation means afternoon and evening sun on terraces and in gardens, which suits buyers who work during the day and use outdoor space in the late afternoon. Build quality is above the standard spec-home level common in this price bracket along the Costa del Sol.

Atalaya Golf & Country Club is immediately adjacent to the development, and Puerto Banús marina is 8 minutes by car via the A-7. This area attracts northern European families and retirees who want a detached property with garden space but still need proximity to international schools, supermarkets, and healthcare. Estepona town centre is 10 minutes west. The location is not beachfront, and buyers should understand they are trading direct coastal access for larger plot sizes and lower density. The surrounding area has seen consistent development over the past decade, with a mix of Spanish residents and international buyers, which supports resale liquidity.

These villas are completed and available for immediate handover. As with all Spanish property purchases, buyers pay a reservation deposit to secure the unit, then the balance on completion via notarised deed. Legal fees, notary costs, and property transfer tax (ITP) are additional to the purchase price and typically total 10–12% of the property value. Independent legal representation is recommended to verify title, review community fees, and confirm that all planning permissions and building licences are in order. Buyers should also confirm whether the optional solarium and basement have already been constructed or require separate contracting and permitting.

Serene Atalaya - Phase 2 is expected to be key ready in January 2026, meaning you'll be able to move into your finished villa at that time. This timeline allows you to plan your relocation to the Costa del Sol with confidence.

Buying off-plan in Atalaya 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.
