A renovated townhouse with a fixed asking price of €742,500, situated in the urban centre of Estepona on the Costa del Sol. The property offers three bedrooms and three bathrooms across 270 m² of living space, arranged over three floors with independent terraces and a private lift. Originally built in 1970 and now delivered key-ready, the house stands within walking distance of the beach, supermarkets, schools and health services. This is an existing home rather than a new-build project, which means immediate availability and a mature, established neighbourhood rather than a construction phase.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The house stands near one of Estepona's main avenues, in a built-up residential area with services on the doorstep. A supermarket lies roughly 54 metres away, a pharmacy 14 metres, and the health centre and hospital are within 800 metres. The nearest beaches, Playa de Estepona and La Rada, sit about 1.1 km away as the crow flies.
With 270 m² over three floors, three bedrooms and three bathrooms, the layout suits households wanting space and separation between levels. The internal lift removes the usual drawback of vertical townhouse living, while independent terraces provide outdoor areas on several floors. Pre-installed air conditioning and solar panels support year-round comfort.
This is not a new-build development. The property dates from 1970 and has been recently renovated; it is delivered key-ready, so no construction phase or indicative delivery schedule applies. Buyers can move in directly after completion of the purchase, subject to the usual notary process.
The property is a townhouse in a dense urban block, so it does not offer a private garden, private pool or panoramic views. No communal resort facilities such as those found in new-build complexes are included. Parking arrangements are not stated in the available data. The original structure dates from 1970, which carries the age characteristics of that building period despite the renovation.
This property fits a buyer who wants to be inside a functioning Spanish town rather than in a resort complex on its edge. It suits permanent residents first: the proximity of schools, health centres and shops means daily life can be organised without a car, which is relatively rare on the Costa del Sol. It also works for a household that needs volume, three bedrooms, three bathrooms and 270 m² allow for a home office, guests or a multigenerational arrangement, with the lift removing the barrier that stairs usually create for older occupants or reduced mobility. Buyers seeking a second home will value the walk-to-beach distance of about 1.1 km and the fact that the property requires no building work before use. It is less suitable for those wanting a private pool, a garden or gated-community facilities; those requirements point towards villa or new-build complexes elsewhere. Buyers who prioritise parking on site should verify arrangements, as none are stated in the data. Finally, those comparing against new-build pricing should note that this is a 1970 structure that has been renovated, not a contemporary development, and the price reflects the finished area and central position rather than off-plan discounts or developer payment terms.
The house has been recently renovated, and the documented specification includes several substantive technical items. A lift serves the three floors, which in an older townhouse represents a significant structural intervention rather than a cosmetic one; it changes how the whole property can be used. Solar panels are installed, contributing to hot water or electricity generation and reducing running costs in a climate with high annual sunshine. Air conditioning is pre-installed, meaning the ducting and circuitry are in place even where units may still need fitting. The interior layout counts three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a separate guest toilet across 270 m². The imagery shows a dining area with a large mural, a hallway with stairs, a ground-floor toilet with sink, and a storage area with equipment and ladders, indicating usable service space beyond the living floors. As with any 1970 building, the renovation quality of unseen elements, wiring beyond visible circuits, plumbing, insulation and window performance, should be verified through a technical survey before purchase. The independent terraces at different levels suggest the renovation reworked the access and use of outdoor space. No energy certificate details or structural guarantees are included in the available data, and buyers should request the full technical file. Overall, the documented features, lift, solar, air pre-installation, recent renovation, point to a property prepared for permanent occupation rather than a cosmetic refresh for resale.
The asking price is fixed at €742,500; this is an existing home, not a project with a price list. At 270 m² of living area, the price equates to roughly €2,750 per square metre. Three bedrooms and three bathrooms across three floors, with a lift and solar panels included, define the specification. Availability is immediate, as the property has been completed and renovated. For context, new-build projects in Estepona such as Acqua Gardens (from €524,600), Vanian Park (from €537,000) and Symphony Suites (from €522,400) start at lower entry prices, but those are typically smaller apartment typologies rather than a renovated 270 m² townhouse in the town centre.
Daily life here revolves around the practical advantages of a central Estepona location. The front door opens onto an established street near a main avenue, with a pharmacy practically next door and a supermarket within a minute's walk. The morning routine does not require a car: bread, groceries, banking and cafés are all within a short stroll, and the municipal sports centre and several gyms sit within 600 metres. The beach at La Rada is roughly a 1.1 km walk as the crow flies, flat terrain throughout, making an evening swim or a paseo along the seafront a realistic part of the day rather than a planned excursion. The house itself works vertically: three floors connected by a private lift, with independent terraces breaking up the interior and providing outdoor space at different levels. At 270 m² it offers generous volume for a townhouse, allowing a household to combine sleeping quarters, living space and a work or guest area without the compromise typical of apartments. Puerto Estepona and the marina, about 1.6 km away, add dining and leisure options within easy reach. The neighbourhood functions year-round rather than seasonally, because it is part of the working town, with schools, health centres and public transport lines serving permanent residents as well as visitors.
The surrounding area is urban Estepona at its most practical. Within 2 km the data counts 50 restaurants, 22 cafés, 18 pharmacies, 4 banks, 6 schools and 2 parks, a density that means almost no daily errand requires a vehicle. The town's health infrastructure includes two health centres, with the nearest hospital about 767 metres away. Education is well covered: 19 primary schools and 10 secondary schools across the municipality serve a permanent population of roughly 79,600 inhabitants. Public transport runs on 8 lines with 50 stops, connecting the centre with outlying districts. The tone of the neighbourhood is that of a working Andalusian town: busier in summer due to tourism, the municipality counts 24 hotels and around 6,900 beds, but substantially quieter and fully functional in winter. For recreation, the Polideportivo Municipal and two private gyms lie within 600 metres, and the Mirador del Carmen viewpoint is about 1.2 km away. Marbella sits 25 km away as the crow flies for larger-city amenities.
The map shows the property's position in central Estepona, just off one of the town's main avenues. Note the cluster of daily amenities within a few hundred metres and the flat, walkable route towards La Rada beach. The listed distances are straight-line; road routes may be slightly longer.

Estepona occupies the western Costa del Sol between Marbella (25 km straight-line) and the Gulf of Gibraltar, with Algeciras 42 km away and Málaga city 73 km. This positions the town closer to Gibraltar Airport (36 km straight-line) than most Costa del Sol resorts, while remaining within an hour's drive of Málaga-Costa del Sol (64 km). Within the region, Estepona is known as a genuine Spanish town with a year-round population of about 79,600, a working old centre and a cultural programme, in contrast to the more resort-driven enclaves further east.

Golf: Valle Romano Golf at 4.5 km and Azata Golf at 4.9 km (straight-line) cover the nearest courses, with Estepona Golf at 6.1 km. Airport: Málaga-Costa del Sol lies about 64 km away as the crow flies, roughly an hour by road; Gibraltar Airport is an alternative at 36 km straight-line. The data also lists a 35 km airport distance, and buyers should verify which route figure applies in practice. Electric-vehicle charging is available 1.3 km away, with a fast-charging Supercharger site 8.3 km out. A car is useful for regional trips but not necessary for daily life.

Estepona lies at 19 metres above sea level on a coastal plain backed by the Sierra Bermeja, whose peak of Los Reales reaches 1,449 metres, a mountain massif visible from the town that offers hiking at moderate driving distance. The climate data shows an average annual temperature of 19.2 °C with monthly averages between 15 and 25 °C, a pattern that supports outdoor living for most of the year. The swimming season extends to about five months with sea temperatures at or above 20 °C. The gradient from the property to the beach is 2.4%, effectively flat, which matters for walking and cycling in daily life. The municipality covers 137 km² of fertile valley crossed by small streams, combining coastline with substantial natural hinterland.

Against its own market, this townhouse occupies a different segment from the headline new-build projects in Estepona. Acqua Gardens (from €524,600), Vanian Park (from €537,000) and Symphony Suites (from €522,400) all advertise from-prices well below this property's fixed €742,500, but they represent off-plan or recent apartment typologies, typically with communal pools and gardens on the town's outskirts. This house, by contrast, trades resort-style communal facilities for volume and centrality: 270 m² across three floors, three bathrooms, a lift, and a position where the supermarket is 54 metres away and the beach a 1.1 km walk. Per square metre, the asking price works out at roughly €2,750, a figure that new-build apartments in prime Costa del Sol locations frequently exceed. The trade-off is structural: a 1970 building, however well renovated, will not carry modern energy performance or developer warranties, and no communal pool, gym or landscaped grounds come with the purchase. Regionally, Estepona sits west of Marbella (25 km straight-line) and has developed a market identity distinct from its neighbour: a genuine municipal town of about 79,600 inhabitants with 19 primary schools and 10 secondary schools, attracting permanent residents as well as second-home buyers. Roughly 3,160 housing transactions per year indicate liquid market conditions. Buyers weighing this property against new-build alternatives are effectively choosing between finished space in the town centre today and a smaller, newer unit with resort amenities delivered over a construction period, with the caveat that delivery dates in such projects are always indicative.
