This Finca in Orihuela stands out due to its extensive plot and the combination of an existing house with development potential. Compared to Project ICONIC in Gran Alacant (from €355,000), which focuses on modern apartments closer to the coast, this property in Orihuela offers more land and a traditional, rural setting. Its price range of €850,000 places it close to SPEC VILLA 148 - MONTE SOLANA in Pedreguer (from €845,000), which also features a villa on a large plot, but Orihuela's unique cultural background and specific rural development opportunities offer a different proposition. Project LAS COLINAS in Pedreguer (from €529,000) leans more towards a golf and resort experience. Therefore, the Finca in Orihuela is primarily attractive to buyers seeking space, development potential, and an authentic Spanish lifestyle, located inland but with good connections to the coast and amenities.
