This exceptionally large 31,668 m² plot in Monóvar, Alicante, offers the opportunity to create a home tailored to your design. Situated in an urban environment with amenities within walking distance, this land combines rural tranquility with practical convenience. The foundations of a former house on the site permit new construction, subject to current building regulations. With its wooded character and terraces, the plot provides a basis for a country living project with ample privacy and space.
Compared to projects on the direct coast, such as the apartments in Torrevieja (from €155,000) or the residences in Urbanización El Raso (from €225,000), this building plot in Monóvar offers a significantly lower entry price for the land. The focus here is on building a home oneself, which requires a different approach than purchasing a ready-made apartment or villa. Its inland location, 31 km from the coast, distinguishes this project from coastal developments. While coastal projects often offer direct access to beaches and a vibrant tourist atmosphere, Monóvar provides a more traditional Spanish living environment with a milder climate and lower median incomes in the province (€15,750). The generous plot size, combined with the potential for new construction, positions this project as a unique opportunity for those wishing to create a custom-built country home, in contrast to the more standardized new developments on the coast.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The plot is located in Monóvar, a municipality in the interior of the province of Alicante. Amenities such as shops and pharmacies are within walking distance, ensuring daily convenience. The proximity of sports facilities in Elda (3.4 km) adds recreational options to the immediate surroundings.
This building plot is suitable for those who wish to construct a home that fully meets individual living requirements. The size of the plot allows for a spacious residence, landscaped gardens, and privacy. The possibility of new construction on an existing foundation facilitates the realization of a modern home in a natural setting.
Valencian law permits new construction on this plot, as the foundations of a former wooden house exist. This project is a building plot requiring a building permit and project plan. Construction commencement depends on the buyer's approval and scheduling.
This is a building plot, not an existing dwelling. Development requires a complete new construction project and associated permits. There is no existing house on the plot. Utility connections, such as water, may need to be established.
This project suits buyers who have the time and resources to design and build a new home and who value privacy and space. It is ideal for those seeking a country lifestyle with urban amenities within walking distance. Consider a couple retiring and wanting to build an accessible home, or a family needing space for children and pets, surrounded by nature. It may also appeal to investors looking to develop a project in a location with potential. The presence of existing foundations can expedite the new construction permitting process, which is attractive for those aiming for efficient building.
As a building plot, this land offers the freedom to choose finishes and materials entirely according to your preferences. Local building regulations will dictate construction quality. The surroundings, with pine forests and natural terraces, suggest the possibility of integrating natural materials and sustainable building methods. The exact specifications for the future home, such as insulation, systems, and finishes, are entirely at the discretion of the buyer and their architect. Electricity is present on the plot, providing a starting point for installations.
The building plot in Monóvar is available from €45,000. This price is for the land only; the cost of constructing a house is not included. Given the plot's size, this price offers a starting point for realizing a project of considerable scale and potential, such as a country house or estate. Availability is limited to this single, large plot.
