About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom villa with private pool in Estepona, Costa del Sol. This renovated property combines traditional Andalusian architecture with contemporary living across 84 square metres of built space and an expansive 135-square-metre terrace. The renovation has preserved original character whilst introducing modern finishes throughout both floors.
Inside, two bright bedrooms share a stylish family bathroom, whilst the fully equipped kitchen provides ample storage and workspace. The living areas flow naturally onto the generous terrace space, which wraps around the property and offers uninterrupted views across the surrounding countryside to the mountains beyond. The private pool sits within the terrace area, providing outdoor living space that more than doubles the interior footprint. Part-furnished and in excellent condition, the villa includes one designated parking space. The layout maximises natural light whilst maintaining privacy from neighbouring properties.
The property sits within a gated community in El Padrón, a quiet white village-style development at the entrance to Estepona town. Communal gardens and a shared swimming pool complement the private outdoor space. The villa is positioned 3 kilometres from Estepona's marina and old town centre, where cobbled streets house independent shops and traditional tapas bars. The surrounding terrain of olive groves and rolling hills creates a rural feel whilst maintaining easy access to coastal amenities along the western Costa del Sol.

Buying this townhouse in Estepona
Can foreigners buy property in Estepona?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Estepona. You will need a Spanish NIE (foreigner tax number) before signing the title deed, plus a Spanish bank account for the transfer. The full purchase typically completes 6 to 10 weeks from signing the reservation contract.
What is an NIE and how do I get one?
The NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) is your Spanish tax ID and is mandatory for buying property, opening a bank account or paying taxes. You can apply at a Spanish consulate in your home country or in person in Spain. Your lawyer can also obtain it on your behalf with a power of attorney, typically 2 to 4 weeks.
Do I need a Spanish lawyer?
Strongly recommended. An independent lawyer (abogado), separate from the agent and seller, verifies title, checks for debts and planning issues, drafts contracts and represents you at the notary. Typical fee is 1% of the purchase price plus VAT, with a minimum around €1,500.
How long does completion take?
From accepted offer to keys: 6 to 10 weeks for a resale, 30 to 45 days from reservation if no mortgage is needed. New-build off-plan completes when the development is delivered, often 18 to 36 months after reservation, with staged payments along the way.
What taxes will I pay buying a property in Estepona?
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.
What ongoing costs should I expect?
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.
Are agent fees paid by the buyer or seller?
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.
Can non-residents get a Spanish mortgage?
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.
Should I get pre-approval before viewing?
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.
