A New Development on Estepona's New Golden Mile: 75 Homes Around a 10,000 m² Private Retreat
Estepona has been quietly outperforming its more famous neighbours for years. The town has invested in its old quarter, expanded its waterfront, and held onto the Mediterranean character that other parts of the coast have lost.
Now a new residential community is taking shape in one of the area's most coveted pockets — the New Golden Mile, between Estepona town and Puerto Banús. 75 homes, two buildings, and 10,000 m² of communal space designed as a private retreat.
Here's what's on the table.
The Development at a Glance
- 75 homes across two buildings (61 and 14 residences)
- Two- and three-bedroom layouts, plus duplexes with private solariums
- Ground-floor homes with private gardens
- Mid-floor apartments with large terraces
- Duplex residences with rooftop solariums and an optional private pool
- 10,000 m² of communal areas — a fully landscaped private retreat
The architecture is contemporary Mediterranean: clean lines, generous glazing, deep terraces designed to blur the boundary between indoor and outdoor living. The design language is calm and unfussy — the kind of build that ages well rather than dating to a trend.
The Homes
Three layout categories, each with substantial outdoor space:
Two-Bedroom Residence
- 90 m² interior + 62 m² of terraces
- Open-plan kitchen and 34 m² living-dining area
- Principal suite (~19 m²) with en-suite bathroom
- Second bedroom and second full bathroom
- Built area: ~103 m² interior, ~139 m² including communal share
Three-Bedroom Residence
- 110 m² interior + 90 m² of terraces
- Larger principal suite (~23 m²) with en-suite
- Two additional bedrooms, two full bathrooms
- Separate utility room
- Built area: ~126 m² interior, ~169 m² including communal share
Duplex Residence
- 109 m² interior + 141 m² of terraces and solarium
- Same lower-floor layout as the two-bedroom, with a private upper level
- Attic bedroom, third bathroom, and a 96 m² solarium
- Optional private pool on the solarium
- Built area: ~128 m² interior, ~172 m² including communal share
The terrace ratios stand out. On every layout, the outdoor square meterage is comparable to — and on the duplex, well beyond — the indoor footprint. That's not common in this price bracket on the Costa del Sol.
The Communal Areas
This is where the project differentiates itself from other off-plan launches in the area.
The 10,000 m² of communal space isn't filler — it's the core of the value proposition:
- 25-meter infinity pool for serious swimmers
- Leisure pool for casual use and families
- Fully equipped fitness area
- Furnished, connected coworking space for remote workers
- Pet-friendly outdoor area with a dedicated pet-washing station
- Landscaped gardens, walking paths, and quiet relaxation zones
Two details worth highlighting:
The coworking space is a nod to the buyer profile this development is clearly designed for — Northern Europeans who plan to actually live here, not just visit. If you work remotely, you can step out of your apartment and into a proper workspace without leaving the community.
The pet-friendly area with washing station is the kind of detail that sounds small until you've moved a dog from Copenhagen to the Costa del Sol and realised how few developments think about it.
The Location: The New Golden Mile
The New Golden Mile is the stretch of coast between Estepona town and Puerto Banús — one of the strongest-performing micro-markets on the Costa del Sol.
What you get from this location:
- Estepona town centre and old quarter: minutes away. Whitewashed streets, the floral routes, and a calendar of cultural events.
- Puerto Banús: a short drive east. Restaurants, marina, shopping.
- Marbella centre: easy reach.
- Beaches: directly accessible.
- Golf: surrounded by some of Andalusia's best courses.
- Sierra Bermeja: hiking and nature on the doorstep.
The climate does the rest — Estepona averages more than 300 days of sunshine a year, with the kind of mild Mediterranean temperature curve that makes outdoor living the default rather than a summer activity.
Who This Is For
Northern European buyers wanting a primary or second home: The orientation, terrace sizes, and communal amenities are designed for people who'll spend real time here.
Remote workers and entrepreneurs: The on-site coworking space, the airport access, and the lifestyle balance — this is built for the new generation of professionals leaving Northern Europe for the coast.
Buyers who want lock-and-leave: Gated community, communal maintenance, infinity pool you don't have to clean. Fly in, fly out, the place looks after itself.
Investors with a long view: The New Golden Mile has consistently outpaced the wider Costa del Sol on price growth. Off-plan entry typically locks in pricing below post-completion market value.
Pet owners: A small detail, but if you're relocating with animals, this is one of the few developments designed with that in mind from day one.
Questions to Ask Before You Commit
Off-plan purchases reward careful diligence. Before signing anything, you want clear answers on:
- Completion timeline — and what happens if it slips
- Bank guarantees — your deposit needs to be protected
- The developer's track record — what have they delivered, on time, and at what quality?
- Quality memorandum — exact finishes, brands, and specifications
- Community fees — annual cost of running 10,000 m² of communal space is not trivial
- Customisation windows — when can you choose finishes, and what's locked in?
- Reserved-area extras — duplex pools, parking, storage: what's included and what's an upcharge?
These are the questions the developer's sales team will answer in their language. We make sure they answer them in yours.
Why Use a Buyer's Agent on a New Development?
The sales office on a new development works for the developer. Their job is to sell you a unit at the price the developer wants. Their contracts are written by the developer's lawyers. Their floor plans and renders are prepared by the developer's marketing team.
That's not a problem — it's just the structure. You wouldn't expect anything else.
But it does mean you're the only person at the table without representation. Unless you bring your own.
When you work with Konrad Real Estate on a project like this, we:
- Review the contract in your language, before you sign
- Verify the developer's history — past projects, completion records, financials
- Confirm the bank guarantee structure protecting your deposit
- Connect you with independent Spanish lawyers who represent only your interests
- Compare the development honestly against other current off-plan and resale options
- Negotiate — yes, even on new builds. Terms, finishes, included extras
- Manage the timeline — milestone payments, build-quality checks, completion handover
We don't get paid by the developer. We work for you.
The Best Units Go First
This is the rule on every off-plan launch worth its name. Ground-floor garden homes, the duplex penthouses, the south-facing units with the cleanest sea views — those move early. By the time most international buyers hear about a development, the inventory worth choosing has already been chosen.
If the New Golden Mile, the layout sizes, or the communal amenities here match what you've been looking for, it's worth getting the full picture now rather than later.
