Finca/Country House for sale in Benissa, Alicante

This 8-bedroom, 300-year-old finca with sea views is set in the peaceful Pinos area of Benissa. This unique estate enjoys a protected natural setting where new construction is not permitted, helping preserve the beauty and tranquillity of the surrounding landscape.

The property consists of two buildings: the main house offers approximately 250 m² over two floors, while a second building of around 150 m² provides excellent potential for renovation or conversion. The third building on the property is a stables building.

This protected finca rústica offers the charm of a genuinely historic property in an era when such buildings simply cannot be replicated. As a listed suelo rústico protegido, the property cannot be demolished, ensuring the character and legacy of the building are preserved. However, it can be restored with new materials in the same style and position.

The estate sits on a very large plot of more than 120,000 m², with traditional almond (almendro secano) and carob (algarrobo secano) trees and wild scrub, offering open views across the countryside and down the mountain to the sea and the Peñon d'Ifach. A traditional wood-fired oven adds to the character of the property and reflects the rural lifestyle of the area.

The land already has electricity connected and includes two wells—one located inside the property and another outside—providing a valuable water source. This means the site could be 100% off-grid when solar panels and batteries are installed.

This is a rare opportunity to restore a traditional Spanish finca and create a private home surrounded by nature, with plenty of space, privacy, and beautiful views.
