This 20,058 m² building plot in Orihuela, Alicante, offers significant space for development. Situated in an urban environment with amenities within walking distance, it combines rural tranquility with urban convenience. Its location near the Sierra de Orihuela mountains and an average annual temperature of 18.9°C positions it as an interesting option for those seeking space and a Mediterranean climate. The pricing starting from €36,000 reflects the plot's size.
Compared to the apartments offered in Torrevieja (starting from €155,000 - €169,000) and the properties in Urbanización El Raso (starting from €225,000), this building plot in Orihuela offers a fundamentally different entry into the real estate market. While the mentioned projects offer ready-to-move-in solutions, this offering is a piece of land, allowing for a lower starting price of €36,000. This positions the plot as an option for investors or buyers willing to undertake their own construction project, rather than purchasing an immediately habitable property. The location in Orihuela, more inland and some distance from the direct coastline, differs from the more tourist-oriented locations like Torrevieja. However, the plot's size offers development potential that might be less feasible in busier coastal areas. The lower price per square meter in Orihuela could be attractive for those seeking space and development opportunities, away from the immediate hustle of popular seaside resorts.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
This plot is located in Orihuela, at the foot of the Sierra de Orihuela, within an urban area that still offers a sense of space. The proximity to essential amenities like a supermarket (183 m) and pharmacy (167 m) within walking distance contributes to daily living comfort.
The size of this plot, over 20,000 m², is suitable for various construction plans, from a spacious private villa to potentially more development opportunities. It is a location that pursues space, privacy, and the possibility of creating a personal oasis.
As building land, this plot offers the flexibility to design and construct a home entirely to your specifications. The construction phase is purely conceptual, with development depending on the owner's specific building permits and plans.
The plot is inland and not directly on the coast. Direct access to tourist attractions such as beaches and large golf resorts requires transportation. The greater distance to Alicante airport (approx. 999 km) should also be considered.

It is ideal for someone wishing to design their own home on a large plot, with the flexibility to fully customize the layout, architecture, and landscaping. It also offers potential for project developers seeking a larger piece of land for possible subdivision or a unique development project. The location in an urban environment with amenities within reach, yet offering scale for privacy, appeals to those who wish to experience Spanish culture without the direct bustle of coastal areas. It is a choice for those willing to invest in developing their own space, with the Mediterranean lifestyle in mind.
As building land, the 'quality and finish' are entirely open to interpretation. This plot provides a blank canvas to realize a home that meets the highest standards in design, materials, and technological integration. The Orihuela area features a mix of traditional and modern architectural styles, which can inspire design. Local building regulations and available technologies will determine the final finish. The average temperatures and abundant sunshine suggest that sustainable materials and energy-efficient solutions, such as solar power which thrives in this climate, could be considered during development.
This plot is offered starting at €36,000 for an area of 20,058 m². This pricing per square meter positions it as an affordable entry into the Alicante region's property market. Given its size and nature as building land, it offers potential for significant project development or the creation of a spacious private villa. Availability is tied to the sale of this specific plot; there are no variations in property types, as it concerns a piece of land.
