This exceptional 6,400 m² plot offers a rare opportunity in the inland town of Alora, Málaga. Situated in an urban environment yet offering rural tranquility, this land combines the advantages of nearby amenities with ample space for diverse applications. With existing facilities such as a water connection, electricity, and a paved access road, it provides a solid foundation for future developments. The location is strategic, with Alora itself just 2.5 km away and Málaga Airport approximately 24 km away by air.
This land plot in Alora positions itself differently from the apartments offered in Torre del Mar (Aquamar), Mijas (Lantana Residencial), and Estepona (Etherna Homes 2). The projects in Torre del Mar, Mijas, and Estepona are typically apartment complexes on the coast, geared towards residence or recreation with direct access to beaches and urban amenities. Their starting prices range significantly higher, from €205,000 to €259,000. This land plot, conversely, offers inland tranquility, agricultural potential, and a lower entry price of €58,000. It appeals to buyers seeking space, nature, and potential for farming or horse keeping, rather than the typical coastal lifestyle. The distance to the coastline (approx. 27 km) and airport (24 km) is comparable to the accessibility of some coastal areas, but the immediate surroundings and property type differ fundamentally.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The plot is located in Alora, a town with urban characteristics, yet surrounded by nature. Amenities such as shops and pharmacies are within walking or short driving distance. Proximity to the town guarantees access to daily necessities, while the rural setting ensures peace and space.
This land is ideal for those seeking space for agricultural purposes or for horse owners. With the possibility to build a barn for agricultural machinery, it offers flexibility. The existing orchard with orange and lemon trees suggests potential for agri-tourism or productive farming. The surrounding area also offers ample opportunities for outdoor activities.
This is an existing plot ready for development. According to current regulations, there is the possibility to build a barn for agricultural machinery of up to 64 m², with options for expansion in accordance with local legislation. Further building plans must comply with the most recent local zoning plans.
This is a land plot without existing buildings. Current regulations permit the construction of an agricultural barn, but further residential construction depends on specific permits and zoning changes. The plot is primarily configured for agricultural purposes at present.
This plot suits a buyer interested in agricultural development, keeping horses, or creating a rural retreat with the convenience of nearby amenities. It is suitable for someone willing to invest in building an agricultural barn or other permitted structures. The buyer values the natural environment, mountains, and abundant sunshine, yet desires access to urban facilities like shops, schools, and a hospital within a short travel time. The proximity of golf courses and the beach, albeit at a greater distance, also offers options for an active lifestyle.
This concerns a land plot with an existing agricultural setup, including an orchard with orange and lemon trees. Basic utilities like a water connection and electricity are present. The access road is fully paved, facilitating transport to and from the plot. Any future construction plans, such as an agricultural barn, will be subject to building codes and require specific materials and finishes determined according to local regulations and permits. The focus here is on the land and its existing agricultural infrastructure.
This land plot is offered starting from €58,000. The pricing reflects its status as a land parcel, suitable for agricultural or specific construction purposes according to local regulations. The size of 6,400 m² provides a substantial area. Availability is immediate, as the plot is ready. Comparable projects in the region, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar, Lantana Residencial in Mijas, and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona, are priced higher and typically involve residential units.
