Finca/Country House for sale in Fontanars dels Alforins, Valencia

The estate is in the Els Alforins wine region, among vineyards and almond groves, with the mountains in the distance. The landscape is open and largely undeveloped, just a few minutes from Fontanars dels Alforins and Ontinyent.

At its heart is a renovated, never-occupied, single-storey farmhouse that retains the character of Valencian rural architecture: rubble-stone walls, Arabic roof tiles and exposed wooden-beam ceilings.

The house is reached via a private road. It is surrounded by 37,000 m² of Mediterranean landscape, with no intensive agricultural use. Beside the house, the stone walls of former buildings remain; they are listed and offer the potential to rebuild.

It is suited to use as a family home, a second residence or a base for a rural accommodation project linked to wine tourism.

The house has 129 m² on a single level. The main living room, with a wood-burning stove, opens onto a separate second living room with a fireplace. This provides distinct spaces for relaxing, reading or entertaining guests.

The exposed-beam ceilings add height and character to every room. The floors are finished in light-coloured ceramic, while wooden shutters let in the light of the countryside.

The kitchen combines handcrafted blue tiles, wooden countertops and aqua-coloured cabinetry. It opens onto a small dining area with direct access outside.

The bedrooms retain the white palette and wooden beams. The bathrooms, finished in grey microcement with blue ceramic sinks, have a contemporary, understated feel.

Attached to the house is an uncovered courtyard, enclosed by rubble-stone walls and a wooden door beneath a voussoir arch. It is an intimate, sheltered space, ideal for a swimming pool or plunge pool. It is currently unfinished.

Near the house are the remains of buildings with large stone walls, listed as Protected Assets and Spaces (environmental protection). They allow for reconstruction of up to 2,400 m², suitable for a premium rural accommodation project or boutique hotel.

Fontanars dels Alforins, the heart of the Els Alforins wine region, is home to some of the most acclaimed wineries in the Valencian Community. Ontinyent, the comarca’s service centre, is just a short distance away.

The estate combines privacy, scenery and good connections: Valencia and Alicante Airport are within reasonable reach for residents and international visitors alike.

The estate is in Terres dels Alforins, the wine valley between Fontanars dels Alforins, Moixent and La Font de la Figuera, known as the “Valencian Tuscany”. The landscape is characterised by vineyards, almond groves and Mediterranean woodland, with the mountains in the distance. It is an open, quiet and largely undeveloped setting where privacy is assured.

Fontanars dels Alforins, about 5 minutes away, is the heart of this tradition. It is home to several of the most acclaimed wineries in the D.O. Valencia, many of them located on historic estates that welcome visitors for tours and tastings: Casa Los Frailes, Los Pinos, Rafael Cambra, Daniel Belda and Vinya Alforí, among others. Throughout the year, the area hosts eagerly anticipated events such as the Mostra de Vins Terres dels Alforins.

Nature lovers can enjoy hiking and cycling routes through vineyards and pine forests, along paths that connect with the Sierra de Mariola. It is an ideal setting for outdoor activities, gastronomy and a tranquil, authentic way of life.

Peace and quiet do not mean having to go without. Ontinyent, about 10 minutes away, is the capital of the Vall d'Albaida and offers all the everyday services: shops, schools, restaurants, a hospital and a train station on the Valencia–Xàtiva–Alcoi line.

The connections are well suited to a primary residence or a tourism project with international appeal: Valencia is about an hour away by car, Alicante Airport is approximately an hour away, and the high-speed rail station in Villena is about 20 km away, with direct connections to Madrid.

A rare location combining scenery, wine culture, nature and nearby services, ideal both as a home and as an investment in wine tourism.
