Description
A 280 m2 new-build penthouse occupying the entire second and top floor of its development in Nueva Atalaya, Estepona, this property includes a private solarium, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 2 allocated underground parking spaces. Floor-to-ceiling glazing runs across the main living area, and the covered terrace extends the living space further outdoors. Air conditioning is fitted throughout and a lift serves all floors.Nueva Atalaya sits between the A-7 coastal road and the hills above Estepona, roughly midway between Estepona town centre and Puerto Banús. The area is primarily residential, with several golf courses within a short drive and everyday amenities along the Avenida de Baleares corridor nearby. Málaga Airport is approximately 20 minutes by car. Nueva Atalaya's quieter street pattern makes it practical for residents who want space without the density of the seafront strips.Community fees are currently set at zero, reflecting the early-stage new-build status; buyers should confirm the projected figure with the developer before exchange. Annual IBI has not yet been assessed. The property carries an energy rating of G. As a new build in Andalucía, this purchase carries IVA at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.2%; ITP does not apply. Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet this region's conditions, for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence, and this is worth checking before you budget.The private solarium on the rooftop level provides an additional outdoor area above the main terrace. With 2 underground parking bays included and communal gardens within the development, the overall outdoor provision across the property is generous for a top-floor apartment in Nueva Atalaya.

Frequently Asked Questions
What purchase costs should I budget for beyond the asking price?
As a new build in Andalucía, this purchase carries IVA (VAT) at 10% of the purchase price plus AJD stamp duty at 1.2% of the purchase price. ITP does not apply. Additional costs include notary fees (typically EUR 600–1,200), land registry fees (typically EUR 400–800) and legal fees (generally around 1% of the purchase price plus VAT). Reduced rates and local allowances may apply if you meet the region's conditions — for example age, large-family or disability status, or buying a primary residence — and this is worth confirming with your solicitor before you finalise your budget.
Can I get a mortgage on this property as a non-resident?
Non-resident buyers in Spain can typically borrow up to 60–70% of the purchase price, meaning a deposit of 30–40% is usually required. Mortgage interest rates from Spanish lenders are broadly in the 3.5–4.5% range, though the exact rate will depend on your financial profile and the lender's terms at the time of application. We can refer you to an independent mortgage broker with experience in cross-border purchases.
What are the ongoing running costs for this penthouse?
Community fees are currently listed at zero; this figure reflects the new-build phase and buyers should request the projected ongoing fee from the developer before contracts are signed. Annual IBI (local property tax) has not yet been assessed for this property — an indicative figure will be available once the catastral value is registered. There is no basura (waste collection) figure on record at this stage.
Can I arrange a viewing remotely?
Yes. We offer video viewings for buyers who cannot travel to the Costa del Sol immediately. A member of the OceanHome team can walk through the property and the development with you via a live video call, covering the apartment layout, solarium, parking and communal areas. In-person viewings can be arranged once you are ready to visit Nueva Atalaya.
What is the rental potential of this property?
Nueva Atalaya attracts both long-term residential tenants and short-term holiday visitors given its position between Estepona and Marbella. Top-floor penthouses with private solariums and parking tend to perform well in the short-let market, particularly during the spring and summer months. You will need a tourist rental licence from the Junta de Andalucía to let the property on a short-term basis; your solicitor can advise on the application process. We do not quote yield projections, but we can connect you with a local property manager who can provide realistic rental estimates based on current market data.
What does the purchase process look like in Spain?
The first practical step is obtaining a Spanish tax identification number (NIE), which is required for any property transaction. Once you have agreed terms, a reservation deposit is paid to take the property off the market, followed by a private purchase contract (arras or contrato de compraventa) at which point a further deposit — typically 10% — is paid. For a new-build purchase, staged payments during construction are common before the balance is settled at the notary on completion. Title transfers in front of a notary, after which the deed is registered at the Land Registry. Your appointed solicitor will manage due diligence and guide you through each stage.
