About this property

Overview

SAKURA is a new development of 3-bedroom detached villas for sale in Estepona, Costa del Sol, priced at €1,400,000. This is a single-villa project in the Valle Romano area with a granted building licence, designed around certified sustainable construction and self-sufficiency principles. The property includes an ecological pool and a semi-basement level with sauna and flexible space, offering 257 m² of built area across three storeys. The developer positions this as a turnkey delivery with efficiency and real habitability as core design principles rather than decorative excess.

Each villa provides three bedrooms and three bathrooms, plus an additional toilet. The master bedroom measures 19.1 m² and opens onto an uncovered terrace. The semi-basement houses a game or storage room, lounge area with sauna, laundry room, bathroom, and an additional room that can function as a guest bedroom, gym, or studio. The ground floor accommodates common areas totaling 46.26 m². The ecological pool uses natural filtration systems. Kitchens and bathrooms come fully equipped. The developer offers an optional organic garden programme as part of what they call the Residential ZERO self-sufficiency initiative. Climate control systems and natural insulation are integrated throughout, with construction using certified sustainable materials.

Valle Romano sits on Estepona's western edge, approximately 4 kilometres inland from the coast and adjacent to the Valle Romano Golf Resort. The beach at Playa del Saladillo is roughly seven minutes by car. This area attracts buyers looking for golf access and lower density than Estepona's town centre, often Northern European families or retirees seeking space and a quieter setting while remaining within reach of coastal amenities. The A-7 coastal road is less than two minutes away, connecting to Marbella in 20 minutes and Gibraltar airport in 35. Estepona town centre, with its renovated old quarter and weekly market, is a 10-minute drive. The immediate surroundings are residential with golf courses and some commercial services, but you will need a car for daily errands and beach access.

This is an off-plan project with a granted building licence, meaning construction can proceed once contracts are signed. Spanish new build purchases typically require a reservation deposit to secure the property, followed by stage payments tied to construction milestones, with the balance paid on completion and key handover. All amounts and payment schedules must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is essential to review contracts, verify licence status, and ensure bank guarantees are in place. The semi-basement layout adds functional space without increasing the villa's footprint, which may appeal to buyers wanting home offices or guest accommodation without committing to a four-bedroom property.

Valle Romano sits above the AP-7, towards the mountains, which means you're away from the highway noise while staying close to the coast. The nearest beach is just 6 minutes away by car. Azata Golf is a 4 minute drive if you want to play regularly. Gibraltar Airport is 48 minutes away, and Estepona town centre takes 15 minutes to reach for shops and restaurants. Hospital de Alta Resolución de Estepona is nearby for peace of mind. This location works well for families who want golf access and beach proximity without living directly on the coast.

SAKURA: Frequently Asked Questions

SAKURA villas start from €1,400,000 and include a fully finished 3-bedroom detached villa with 257 m² of built space. The price covers the property structure, interior finishes, and access to either a private pool or communal pool facilities, depending on your villa layout.

SAKURA is located in Valle Romano on the Costa del Sol, positioned right by the beach. This location gives you direct beach access while being part of an established residential area with local amenities and services within easy reach.

Yes, SAKURA offers flexibility with pool options. Some villas at SAKURA come with private pools, while others provide access to communal pool facilities. Your choice will depend on the specific villa model you select and your preferences for privacy versus shared amenities.

All villas at SAKURA are 3-bedroom detached properties with 257 m² of built space. This layout provides comfortable family living with good proportions across the bedrooms and common areas.

SAKURA is expected to be completed in January 2027. This timeline allows for quality construction and finishing of all the beach-side villas in the development.

Buying off-plan in Valle Romano 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.
