The Region of Murcia, on Spain's southeastern coast, offers a truly authentic and tranquil Mediterranean lifestyle. Known as "the garden of Europe" for its rich agricultural lands and enviable climate, Murcia provides a perfect escape from the fast-paced life of a big city. With over 300 days of sunshine a year and a warm, semi-arid climate, the region is ideal for those seeking to buy a property with a pool in Spain and enjoy an outdoor life all year round.
For many, the idea of living in Murcia is epitomised by owning a country house, locally known as a "finca". These properties are often not just houses; they can be estates with a rich history, offering space, privacy, and a deep connection to the Spanish countryside. A finca is traditionally a general term for a rural plot of land that may or may not have a building. Today, this term is used to describe a spacious rural home, from charming traditional farmhouses to renovated properties with modern luxuries.
A private pool is an essential feature for any country home in this sun-drenched region of Spain. It's not just a luxury; it's a way of life, offering a refreshing escape from the summer heat, and a central point for family gatherings and entertaining guests. Whether you're taking a leisurely dip in the afternoon or hosting a barbecue on a warm evening, a pool enhances the peaceful and relaxed atmosphere that a Murcian country house provides.
When searching for a country house to purchase in Murcia, certain areas stand out for their idyllic rural landscapes and availability of such properties. Towns like Cartagena, Cehegín, and Caravaca de la Cruz are particularly popular, offering stunning views of the surrounding mountains and fertile valleys. The area around Lorca and its outlying villages is also a prime location for fincas, providing a blend of rural tranquillity and access to a beautiful historic town. For those seeking a slightly more central location, the countryside near the city of Mula offers beautiful properties while still being well connected to the regional capital. These areas combine natural beauty with a genuine Spanish village atmosphere, making them the perfect places to find your country home in Spain.
