About this property

Overview

Mirador de Estepona Hills is a new development of 3 to 4-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Estepona, Costa del Sol, priced from €847,000 to €963,991. The project sits within a 28-hectare gated resort just 800 metres from Estepona town centre, an unusual proximity for a development of this scale. The elevated position delivers views across the Mediterranean to the African coastline and Gibraltar, while the resort infrastructure includes year-round facilities more commonly associated with hotel complexes than residential developments.

Ground floor units measure between 194 and 225 m² of built space, with three or four bedrooms and two to three bathrooms. The development includes a central solar-heated pool with an on-site restaurant that operates throughout the year, a 2,600 m² sports area, and a 1,000 m² Reebok gym. A separate southern infinity pool overlooks the sea. The architecture incorporates tropical gardens and organic materials, with sustainability measures including rainwater collection, LED lighting, and solar panels. Residents have access to electric bikes and buggies for moving around the site, and there is a children's play area. The development offers 24-hour security, surveillance cameras, and concierge service.

Estepona appeals to Northern European buyers seeking a less developed alternative to Marbella, with a working Spanish town centre that remains active outside the tourist season. The development sits between Marbella to the northeast and Sotogrande to the southwest, both accessible within a 20-minute drive. The town's old quarter retains daily market activity and year-round restaurants, which supports rental demand if owners use the on-site holiday rental service for investment purposes. The 28-hectare site means this is a resort-style community rather than a compact building, so buyers should expect a golf-course scale of amenity provision and the associated service charges that come with maintaining pools, gyms, gardens, and year-round staffing across that footprint.

This is a current-phase development, so buyers should clarify with the developer which units are available for immediate delivery and which remain under construction. The standard Spanish new build 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 payment schedules and amounts must be confirmed directly with the developer, as they vary by unit and purchase timing. Buyers should instruct an independent Spanish property lawyer before signing any contracts. The holiday rental service may appeal to investors, but owners should request occupancy data and net yield projections for comparable units before relying on rental income to service mortgage payments or cover the community fees for a site of this size.

Mirador de Estepona Hills: Frequently Asked Questions

The price range of €847,000 to €963,991 at Mirador de Estepona Hills includes the ground floor apartment, private garage, and either a private garden or access to communal facilities depending on the unit. All units come with either a private or communal pool, so you have outdoor leisure space as part of your purchase.

Mirador de Estepona Hills is situated in Estepona on the Costa del Sol, one of Spain's most sought-after coastal areas. The development benefits from the town's excellent infrastructure, beaches, and amenities while offering a residential setting away from the busiest tourist zones.

Mirador de Estepona Hills offers ground floor apartments ranging from 3 to 4 bedrooms with built sizes between 194 and 225 square metres. The larger units provide more space and flexibility, whether you're looking for a family home or investment property.

Yes, all units at Mirador de Estepona Hills feature sea views thanks to the development's elevated position and south-facing orientation. This orientation also means your apartment receives excellent natural light and warmth throughout the day.

Mirador de Estepona Hills is expected to be completed in May 2020, so the development is ready for immediate occupation. This allows you to move into your new home without the typical waiting period associated with off-plan purchases.

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.
