Project Analysis

Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.

Location

The property is located just 500 meters from Caleta de Vledez, a town known for its marina and beaches. It is positioned directly alongside the Baviera Golf Course, integrating it into a recreational zone. The surrounding area includes approximately 900 homes, many with private gardens, creating a stable base of potential users.

Layout

For development purposes, the site offers high visibility and accessibility within a established community. The proximity to the coast and golf course supports hospitality or lifestyle-oriented projects. The zoning allows for a variety of uses, ranging from elderly care to educational facilities.

Project Status

The plot is undeveloped land with secured zoning permissions for commercial and hospitality use. A valid mortgage appraisal certificate is available. The building permit process requires a guarantee for simultaneous urbanization and construction works, which can be deducted from the sales price.

Points of Attention

The site is not suitable for purely private single-family residential development in the traditional sense; it is designated for commercial, hospitality, or institutional use. The developer must adhere to local regulations regarding building size and usage percentages. Access is dependent on existing road infrastructure.

Lifestyle & Surroundings

This property is suitable for investors or developers seeking large-scale hospitality projects (such as a 370-room hotel) or care facilities (residence for the elderly). It is also viable for mixed-use developments combining retail and office space. It is not intended for individual private home buyers.

Build Quality & Finishing

As a plot of land, the finishing quality is determined by future construction. The current state is 'Excellent' in terms of terrain condition and location potential. The foundations and infrastructure must be built according to Spanish building codes.

Price & Context

Price & Availability

The asking price is set at €3,700,000. Financial documents indicate a significantly higher mortgage appraisal value of €8,636,737 and a cadastral value of €8,849,932. This pricing strategy positions the property as a 'Bargain', offering a substantial discount relative to its assessed valuation.
