About this property

Overview

Natura Estepona offers three-bedroom apartments built across three low-rise blocks, each home spanning 91 to 107 square metres inside with terraces that match or exceed the interior space. Ground-floor units come with private gardens, while penthouses gain access to a solarium. The layouts suit buyers who want generous outdoor space for entertaining or family use. Large windows bring in natural light and frame views over the sea, gardens or pool. Each home includes underground parking and a storage room.

The development sits 380 metres from Playa Costa Natura, making the beach a genuine walk rather than a drive, though you can reach it by car in two minutes if carrying beach kit. Mercadona supermarket is two minutes on foot, and the town centre of Estepona and Puerto Deportivo marina are both ten minutes by car. This location puts you close enough to everyday shops and schools without being in the middle of a tourist strip. Azata Golf is eight minutes away by road, Gibraltar Airport 44 minutes.

The setting works well for families who want a beachside base with space to spread out and access to international schools nearby. The communal facilities include a pool, gym and coworking space. The trade-off is that you are not in walking distance of Estepona's old town or a wide choice of restaurants, so you will need a car for anything beyond the immediate shops and beach. The terraces are large enough to make outdoor living practical most of the year, which matters more here than interior square meterage for many buyers.

Natura Estepona: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa Costa Natura is 380 metres away, about a five-minute walk. The beach is genuinely walkable for daily use, though the walk back uphill may feel longer in summer heat. A supermarket sits closer still at 200 metres.

Terraces run from 91 to 109 square metres, matching or exceeding the interior space of each apartment. Ground-floor homes gain private gardens, penthouses get solarium access. That scale makes outdoor living practical year-round rather than token balcony space.

Homes face either north-east or north-west. Neither orientation is true south, so you trade some winter sun for cooler summers and less glare on the terraces. The layout prioritises views over the sea, gardens and pool rather than solar gain.

The beach and a Mercadona supermarket are both walkable. Estepona town centre, the marina, schools and wider restaurant choice all need a car. This setting suits buyers who want a quiet beachside base rather than a pedestrian village lifestyle.

Gibraltar Airport is 32 kilometres away, a 44-minute drive. That distance makes lock-up-and-leave use practical for buyers flying in from the UK, though Málaga Airport offers more frequent connections and is roughly the same travel time from Estepona.

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.
