This exceptional estate in Vélez-Málaga, situated in the heart of the Axarquía region, offers an unparalleled combination of agricultural productivity and development opportunities. With 60,000 m² of land, partially cultivated with a significant mango yield and modern greenhouses, the project provides immediate economic benefits. Two prepared building plots with unobstructed sea views add a residential dimension. The ample water supply and excellent access make this an attractive option for both agricultural entrepreneurs and developers aiming to create a distinctive residence on the Costa del Sol.
Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens, Aby Upper, and Alba Benalmádena, which are primarily apartment or villa complexes in more direct coastal areas such as Estepona and Benalmádena, this estate in Vélez-Málaga fundamentally differs. The comparable projects mentioned offer standardized residential units starting at prices significantly lower than the €1,060,000 for this estate. Acqua Gardens and Aby Upper in Estepona focus on modern apartments and villas with amenities, while Alba Benalmádena offers a mix of homes, also in a more urban or coastal residential setting. This estate, conversely, is a large-scale agricultural plot with specific development possibilities, targeting a niche market of investors or entrepreneurs interested in agriculture, nature, and land development potential, including the possibility of building an exclusive residence. The price is based on the land size, existing agricultural infrastructure, and building plots, presenting a very different investment profile than standardized coastal new builds.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Strategically located in an urban environment, this estate offers the best of both worlds: the tranquility of the countryside with amenities within walking distance. Its proximity to Vélez-Málaga ensures access to local services, while the inland location provides a different perspective than the immediate coastline.
This estate is suited for those seeking a large-scale agricultural enterprise with the potential for residential development. It offers space for expansion, an existing harvest, and the prospect of building a unique home with sea views.
The project involves an existing agricultural plot with two prepared zones for residential development. The focus is on transforming and expanding existing agricultural use with new construction plans.
This is agricultural land with development potential, not a finished residential complex. Existing structures are limited to agricultural buildings and greenhouses. The focus is on the land and development opportunities, not immediately habitable residential units.
This estate is ideally suited for an investor or entrepreneur wishing to acquire an existing, productive agricultural business while also seeking space for personal development, such as building a residence. It combines an active agricultural investment with the opportunity to create a unique home with an unobstructed sea view, in a location offering both tranquility and proximity to urban amenities. The substantial water supply and good accessibility make it a sustainable choice for agriculture, while the building plots allow for the creation of a dream home. It is also an interesting option for a developer focused on a project with both agricultural and residential components. The proximity to amenities and Málaga Airport also makes it attractive for international buyers who want to play an active role in their investment.
The existing structure of the estate is geared towards agricultural production. The focus is on the 3,500 mango trees, including 2,000 Osteen and 1,500 Keith varieties, and the two modern greenhouses accommodating 1,500 plants. The water supply is a crucial element, with a 7 million litre reservoir and 2 hectares of water surface, indicating a serious investment in agricultural infrastructure. The access road is asphalted, ensuring efficient transport. The two plots designated for residential construction offer flat terrain and unobstructed sea views, forming the basis for home construction. Specific finishing and material choices for future homes are not yet defined, as this is focused on the development phase.
The asking price for this extensive estate is €1,060,000. Given the plot size (60,000 m²) and the existing agricultural infrastructure, this represents a significant investment. The plot is offered as a single parcel. The price reflects the current agricultural value, the investment in the mango plantation, greenhouses, water supply, and the development potential of the two building plots with sea views. There is no information on price variations per section of the land; it is offered as one transaction.
This estate in Vélez-Málaga is an entity of considerable size, perfect for those aspiring to a comprehensive agricultural venture complemented by development opportunities. The existing cultivated area boasts 3,500 mango trees, including 2,000 Osteen variety and 1,500 Keith mangoes, ensuring a stable income stream. Additionally, two modern greenhouses housing 1,500 plants offer further agricultural diversification. The infrastructure is robust, featuring an impressive water supply system comprising a 7 million litre reservoir and 2 hectares of water surface area, essential for current cultivation and future expansion. Its location, just 200 meters from the main road with asphalted access, significantly eases transportation and logistics. For those looking to build a residence, two flat plots have been prepared, offering uninterrupted sea views. This project thus combines productive agriculture with significant development potential in a region renowned for its microclimate and agricultural tradition.
Life in Vélez-Málaga, with this estate as a base, offers a contrast between rural tranquility and urban vibrancy. The immediate surroundings of the estate are agriculturally oriented, focusing on mango fields and greenhouses. A short distance away, within 200 meters, the main road provides good connections. The urban center of Vélez-Málaga is within walking distance, offering access to essential amenities such as pharmacies (122 m), supermarkets (273 m), and a wide array of restaurants (15), banks (11), and cafes (8). Healthcare facilities (3 health centers) and educational institutions (19 primary schools, 9 secondary schools) are also abundant within a 2 km radius. This creates a daily life where one can enjoy the space and peace of the countryside while still benefiting from the amenities and dynamics of a medium-sized city.
