The location: central Estepona, next to the old town

The Oak 48 is in the centre of Estepona, within walking distance of the old town and the boulevard. It is one of the few new-build developments in the town where you can go about daily life on foot.

  • Old town: Estepona’s old town, known for its whitewashed streets, flower-filled plazas, independent restaurants and weekly market, is a pleasant walk away.

  • Marina and beach: the marina and the Playa de la Punta de la Plata beach are less than ten minutes away by car.

  • Services: shops, schools, healthcare and restaurants are all close.

  • Motorways: the A-7 and AP-7 are nearby, so Marbella, Puerto Banús, Sotogrande and Gibraltar are easy to reach.

  • Climate: Estepona enjoys more than 300 sunny days a year, and the homes are designed with large terraces to make the most of it.

Architecture and design

The Oak 48 was designed by Mónaco Arquitectos, a studio focused on contemporary design, accessibility and sustainability. The name refers to the warm, natural wood-look finishes used throughout the project, a nod to the strength and elegance of an oak tree.

Key features of the homes include:

  • Open-plan living areas that maximise natural light

  • Large terraces to enjoy the sea and mountain views

  • Fully equipped kitchens with appliances

  • Two bathrooms, with the main bedroom en suite

  • Air conditioning, heating and double glazing for year-round comfort

  • Energy-conscious design and quality materials

Amenities and lifestyle

The Oak 48 is built around a community that combines relaxation, fitness and flexible working:

  • Communal swimming pool

  • Landscaped communal gardens

  • Fully equipped gym

  • Coworking space, a rare extra for remote workers and digital nomads

  • Social area for gatherings with neighbours and friends

  • Underground parking and individual storage rooms for residents

With 48 homes in three blocks, the complex feels more like a friendly neighbourhood than a large resort.

Why buy at The Oak 48?

1. Walk to the old town. Few new developments are this close to Estepona’s old town, with its restaurants, market and everyday life on your doorstep.

2. Views and light. Large terraces and open layouts take in the sea and the Sierra Bermeja, with plenty of sunshine through the year.

3. A rooftop pool for your own use. Penthouses with a private rooftop pool and solarium offer an unusual level of privacy and outdoor living in a town-centre location.

4. Built for modern life. A coworking space, gym and social area suit residents who work from home as well as those who want a holiday base.

5. Accessible prices for the location. Two-bedroom homes from around €415,000 make The Oak 48 a realistic option for buyers who want a new-build in central Estepona.

6. A choice of home types. Ground-floor gardens, mid-floor terraces and penthouses suit couples, families, retirees and investors alike.

7. Estepona has momentum. Idealista’s September 2026 report puts average asking prices in Estepona at about €5,021 per square metre, around 17% higher than a year earlier, and still below Marbella. Past performance is no guarantee of future results, but the town’s appeal to international buyers is clear. See our western Costa del Sol market guide for the latest figures.

8. Comfort and efficiency. Double glazing, air conditioning and heating, and an energy-conscious design are all part of the specification.

Who is The Oak 48 for?
  • Second-home buyers who want a lock-up-and-leave home in a walkable part of town

  • Permanent residents and downsizers who value services, healthcare and security nearby

  • Remote workers who will make use of the coworking space

  • Investors considering a new-build in a high-demand town, who should take advice on rental rules, licences and costs

How to buy

  1. Choose your home from the available apartments and penthouses.

  2. Reserve it with a reservation payment and agreement.

  3. Get your NIE number and appoint an independent lawyer to check the paperwork.

  4. Sign the purchase contract and pay the agreed stage payments, which should be protected by bank guarantees while the building is under construction.

  5. Complete at the notary when the development is finished and register the home in your name.

If you will own the home as a non-resident, annual Spanish non-resident taxes apply. You can estimate them with EasySpanishTax.
