About this property
Overview
Four-bedroom apartment with beachfront position in Estepona, Costa del Sol. This 2025-built residence on Avenida Juan Carlos I delivers direct access to the town's sandy shore and uninterrupted Mediterranean views from two separate terraces. The 139 square metres of interior space have been renovated to current building standards and remain entirely unused, arriving fully furnished and ready for immediate occupation.
The layout provides four bedrooms and two bathrooms across a single level, with 10 square metres of external terrace space divided between the two outdoor areas. Floor-to-ceiling glazing frames the sea views, while the interior fitout includes modern fixtures, integrated storage solutions, and a fully equipped kitchen with appliances. The current configuration features open-plan reception areas that maximise natural light, polished flooring throughout, and climate control systems installed during the recent refurbishment. Each bedroom receives sea or lateral light, and the principal bathroom includes contemporary sanitaryware and tiling.
The apartment sits on Avenida Juan Carlos I, a seafront boulevard that runs parallel to Estepona's main beach and connects directly to the town's beachfront promenade within a two-minute walk. Estepona's historic old town centre lies 800 metres inland, while the marina and its surrounding restaurants occupy the waterfront 1.2 kilometres to the east. The building stands opposite the pedestrian coastal path that extends along the Costa del Sol shoreline.

Buying this apartment 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.
