This finca, classified as a Cortijo, is situated in Oliva, within the province of Alicante. The property offers a living area of 75 m² on a 759 m² plot and features two bedrooms and one bathroom. The location is characteristic of the Costa Blanca countryside, featuring fixed water and electricity connections. The plot is designated as agricultural land, meaning further construction is restricted. The property is offered starting from €259,000.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located on the edge of the urban area of Oliva, at an elevation of 107 meters above sea level. This provides a transition between urban facilities and the hinterland. The surroundings are characterized by rural plots and established gardens. The distance to the Mediterranean Sea is approximately 2.4 kilometers as the crow flies, ensuring a visible connection to the coastline without being directly in the busy beach area.
With a surface area of 75 m² and a separate guesthouse, this property offers living space suitable for permanent residence by a small family or as a holiday home for multiple people. The layout is focused on low maintenance. The presence of a private garden with various seating areas supports a lifestyle that is largely outdoors, typical for the Mediterranean climate.
This is not a new development project but an existing home. The current owner has carried out various modernizations, including the installation of solar panels for energy supply and a submersible pump for water management. The technical condition of the home is such that immediate occupancy is possible, although the aesthetic finish retains the characteristics of a traditional Spanish finca with terracotta tiles and rustic elements.
The plot is registered as agricultural land (suelo rústico). A consequence of this is that it is not permitted to erect new buildings or significantly expand the existing dwelling. This makes the property unsuitable for buyers with plans for large-scale renovation or expansion. Amenities within walking distance are limited to basic necessities; dependence on transport is necessary for extensive shopping.
This property suits buyers seeking the tranquility of the countryside and wishing to escape the hustle of the coast. It is a fitting option for those who value autonomy, such as individuals wishing to grow their own vegetables or seeking a retreat that functions as an 'escape' from the city. The layout with a separate guest annex also makes it suitable for digital nomads or artists desiring a secluded workspace.
The finish of the main building includes traditional materials resistant to the local climate, including terracotta floor tiles and masonry that regulates heat. The rooftop terrace offers access to panoramic views of the surroundings. The installation of solar panels is a modern addition that lowers operational costs. The garden is mature and low-maintenance, featuring 'splash pool' facilities for refreshment without the upkeep of a large swimming pool.
The asking price starts from €259,000. In the Valencia region and the Costa Blanca, this represents an entry-level price for detached homes with land, especially compared to projects in luxury resorts like Benissa or Altea where prices are significantly higher. The pricing reflects the countryside location and limited expansion possibilities. Prices for this type of characteristic property are expected to remain stable, mainly driven by the scarcity of legal countryside real estate.
Oliva presents itself as a municipality with a clear dichotomy: the historic city center and extensive beaches. The property is located in the rural zone, where the daily atmosphere is determined by tranquility and agricultural activity. A morning starts here with the sounds of nature rather than traffic. With 3,759 sunshine hours per year, the outdoor space is the central living area all year round. The proximity to Gandia (approx. 8 km north) means urban amenities are within reach, without experiencing the direct downsides of tourist traffic.
The immediate environment offers a baseline of amenities. A pharmacy is located 30 meters away, and a supermarket for daily groceries is 424 meters away. The nearest beaches, such as Platja de Burguera, are 2.4 kilometers away. The environment is predominantly Spanish-speaking and local in character. For international schools or extensive medical facilities, one is dependent on larger cities in the area, such as Gandia or the further away Denia.
The map shows the position of the finca on the edge of Oliva. The distance of 2.4 kilometers to the Mediterranean Sea is visualized. Also, the location of Golf de Gandia and the nearby airports of Alicante and Valencia are indicated to clarify the regional context.
Oliva is situated in the comarca Safor, in the Valencian community. Geographically, it forms a buffer between the busier Gandia in the north and Poble Nou de Benitatxell in the south. The region is known for its citrus orchards and miles of sandy beaches. This specific finca is strategically situated behind the coastal strip, providing protection from coastal winds, yet close enough for sea activities.
A private vehicle is practically necessary for a comfortable stay, despite the presence of basic amenities within walking distance. The nearest public transport is available via 2 lines with 5 stops in the vicinity. The airports of Alicante and Valencia are both approximately 75 kilometers away, guaranteeing international accessibility. The distance to Malaga airport is too great for practical use.

Compared to projects in the immediate vicinity of Benissa or Altea, where prices for villas easily exceed €4,000,000, this finca in Oliva offers a distinct alternative with a much lower entry price. While the northern Costa Blanca focuses on luxury and exclusivity, Oliva focuses on the authentic Spanish lifestyle. The level of comparison here is closer to the functional country house rather than the resort. For buyers focused on price appreciation, the Safor region generally offers a more favorable price-quality ratio than the international coastal hubs, albeit with fewer international amenities directly at the doorstep.
