This expansive 10,800 m² plot of agricultural land is situated in Alhaurín el Grande, offering a distinctive opportunity for development or agricultural pursuits. The land is flat, features open countryside views, and comes with essential utilities already connected, including electricity and a legally registered well. It also includes a small existing building, providing basic accommodation or storage. While primarily agricultural, the plot may offer potential for constructing an agricultural building of up to approximately 100m², subject to planning permissions. Its location balances a peaceful rural setting with convenient access to local amenities and the wider Costa del Sol region.
Compared to new residential developments like Aquamar in Torre del Mar, Lantana Residencial in Mijas, or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona, which offer constructed homes starting from €205,000 to €269,950, this offering is fundamentally different. It is a parcel of agricultural land, not a finished dwelling, priced at €140,000. While those projects focus on turnkey homes in coastal or near-coastal urban settings, this land in Alhaurín el Grande caters to a niche market seeking agricultural use or potential specialized building rights inland. The value here lies in the land size and its specific agricultural features, rather than immediate habitation. Alhaurín el Grande itself provides a more traditional Andalusian town experience compared to the more tourist-centric coastal towns where the comparable projects are located.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Located inland from the Costa del Sol, Alhaurín el Grande provides a more traditional Andalusian town experience. This plot offers a tranquil rural setting with open views, yet remains accessible to urban amenities. The proximity to the town center means essential services like pharmacies and restaurants are within easy reach, while major transport links are a short drive away.
This offering caters to individuals or entities seeking a substantial parcel of land for agricultural activities, potential development, or as a rural retreat. The existing infrastructure, including electricity and water, supports immediate use for farming or related ventures. The flat terrain and available building rights, contingent on planning, present possibilities for expansion or specialized agricultural structures.
The land is designated for agricultural use and is a resale property. The existing building on the site dates back to approximately 1970. Development potential for an agricultural building of up to 100m² is subject to obtaining the relevant planning permissions and licenses from the local authorities. The property is currently key-ready for its intended agricultural purpose.
This property is agricultural land and does not currently feature residential zoning. The potential to construct a dwelling is not implied; any building rights pertain strictly to agricultural structures and are subject to planning approval. Services such as mains gas or extensive sewage connections are not present, aligning with its rural, agricultural designation.
This parcel of land is suited for individuals or enterprises focused on agriculture, such as olive cultivation, viticulture, or other farming ventures, benefiting from the fertile land and existing water source. It is also an option for developers looking to establish agricultural buildings or facilities, provided they secure the necessary planning permissions. Furthermore, it could appeal to those seeking a large, private rural space for agricultural or equestrian purposes, away from urban bustle but still connected to services. The proximity to Alhaurín el Grande ensures that daily necessities are easily met, while the open views and tranquil setting offer a peaceful environment. Investors might consider the land's potential for agricultural production or future development opportunities within the regional planning framework.
The existing building on the plot is described as small, comprising two rooms, a shower room, and a covered porch. Its construction dates to approximately 1970. While functional for basic storage or temporary shelter, it is not finished to residential standards. The land itself is flat and suitable for agricultural use. Utilities include connected electricity and a legally registered well with a water storage tank, providing essential resources for farming. Potential new agricultural constructions would be subject to local planning regulations regarding materials and design, but the current offering focuses on the land's inherent usability and existing infrastructure.
This agricultural plot is offered at a fixed asking price of €140,000. As it is agricultural land with an existing structure, it is presented as a single offering rather than a development with tiered pricing. The price reflects the size of the plot (10,800 m²), its features such as connected electricity and a registered well, and the potential for developing an agricultural building, subject to permits. This is a distinctive opportunity to acquire a significant landholding in a desirable Andalusian location, without the complexities typically associated with new-build developments.
