Sierra Blanca by the Sea, in context.

Sierra Blanca by the Sea occupies 33,346 m² of frontline coastline on the New Golden Mile, a plot consistently described as the last of its scale left undeveloped on this stretch of the Costa del Sol. Forty-eight homes across that much land makes for deliberately thin density.

Six beachfront villas hold the sea edge, a central plaza of gardens and water sits behind them, then five three-storey buildings step back and rise just enough that all 42 apartments and penthouses keep the horizon.

Interiors run from 174 to 860 m² across two to five bedrooms, framed in full-height glass, natural stone and warm timber and every residence is certified Energy Class A+.

Daily life is shaped by what sits outside the door: an ocean-facing infinity pool, a residents' spa with heated indoor pool, sauna and hammam, a fitness suite, a padel court and shaded rest areas among the planting. All vehicle circulation runs underground, so the estate at ground level is walked rather than driven.

Published guidance starts at €2,950,000 for first-floor apartments, €3,500,000 at ground level and €3,950,000 for penthouses. Villa figures differ between sources, from €12,750,000 upward. Completion is scheduled for Q4 2027.

The off-plan discount curve

The off-plan discount, stage by stage

Roccabox analyst view

With completion set for Q4 2027, buyers entering now still choose building, floor and aspect, which on a site this orientation-sensitive is the whole argument. Only six villas exist and never will more and the frontline land itself is finished stock on this coast. Payments stage across the build rather than falling in one lump. On value, treat the wider Estepona figures as context rather than comparison: average asking values in the broader market sit near €3,426 per m², up from roughly €3,372 a year ago and that reflects mainstream apartments, not certified A+ beachfront. Ultra-prime frontline trades in its own bracket and the entry point at this stage is the lowest it will be.

Reserving early

Why buyers reserve at this stage

Personalisation window

Reserving during the Off-plan phase gives buyers genuine input into layout, finishes and basement use ahead of handover, a window that closes as the build advances.

Scarcity by design

Only 48 residences across the entire scheme. The reservation list opens ahead of public launch — early registrants secure unit selection and pricing before the broader market is contacted.

Risk-managed entry

Spanish new-build buyers are protected by staged payments held under bank guarantee, ten-year structural warranty and full licence review. Roccabox brokers all of this through regulated counsel.

New Golden Mile

Living in Estepona

This is a part of the coast where the beach is the front garden rather than a drive away. The villas open directly onto sand and the apartments look across gardens and pools to open water, with Gibraltar and the North African coast visible on clear days.

Estepona's old town is minutes away, a grid of flower-hung lanes, small squares and family-run kitchens that has kept its character while the coast around it changed. The marina handles the boat and the casual lunch.

Golf is plentiful within a few minutes' drive in either direction, as are the international schools that make full-time relocation workable rather than theoretical. The climate does much of the persuading: average highs of 22.6°C and lows of 16.1°C across the year mean terraces are used in February as well as August. Within the estate itself, the pattern of the day is domestic and unhurried. Swim, spa, an hour on the padel court, then the walk back through gardens without meeting a single car.

Residency planning for non-EU buyers

Spain's property-based Golden Visa route closed to new applicants on 3 April 2025. Non-EU buyers acquiring property at this value still have residency routes — non-lucrative visa, digital-nomad visa, and case-specific options — depending on circumstances. We introduce regulated immigration counsel before any commitment.

Common questions

Buying off-plan in Spain, answered

Straight answers to the questions our specialists field most. For anything else, the assistant above answers in real time.

Is Sierra Blanca by the Sea a good investment compared to the local resale market?

Sierra Blanca by the Sea is positioned as a premium new-build product with developer warranty, modern specification and limited supply. Comparable to the broader resale stock in Estepona on price-per-m², the premium reflects new-build standards, plot quality and amenity package not typically available in the resale market. Our market analysts model the projected key-ready value on request.

What is the off-plan payment schedule in Spain?

Spanish off-plan purchases are typically staged: 10% on reservation (refundable holding deposit), a further 20% on signing the private purchase contract, and the remaining 70% on completion. Every euro paid before completion is held under bank guarantee — if the developer defaults, your money is refunded under Spanish law.

Can a non-resident get a mortgage to buy at Sierra Blanca by the Sea?

Yes. Spanish banks routinely lend 60–70% loan-to-value to non-residents on properties at this value, over terms of 20–25 years at competitive rates. Roccabox introduces vetted non-resident mortgage brokers at no cost.

Does buying at Sierra Blanca by the Sea qualify for Spanish residency?

Spain's property-based Golden Visa route closed to new applicants on 3 April 2025 under Organic Law 1/2025. However, other residency routes remain available depending on circumstances — non-lucrative visa, digital-nomad visa, work or family-based permits. Roccabox introduces regulated Spanish immigration counsel.

How far is Sierra Blanca by the Sea from Málaga airport?

Approximately 70 minutes' drive, with a direct route via the A-7 / AP-7 motorway.

What is included in the purchase price?

Price includes the unit as specified by the developer. Spanish purchase costs (VAT/IVA on new builds at 10%, AJD stamp duty at 1.2%, notary and registry around 1%, legal counsel typically 1%) sit on top of the headline price. The Roccabox team produces a personalised total-cost breakdown on request.

Can I personalise the property?

At the Off-plan stage, Sierra Blanca by the Sea buyers can typically influence layout details, basement configuration, finishes and specification ahead of handover. The window narrows as the build progresses. Our specialist will walk you through what's still negotiable on each remaining unit.
