Finca/Country House for sale in Salinas, Alicante

Substantial country finca with immense potential: renovation project near Sax, Alicante

Uncover an extraordinary opportunity with this expansive country property, comprising two attached historic farmhouses dating back over 100 years, along with extensive outbuildings and a traditional courtyard. Totalling an impressive 883 m² of built area (including 329 m² of outbuildings) on a vast plot exceeding 50,000 m², this finca offers endless possibilities for visionary buyers.

Currently in need of full reformation, the existing structures provide a blank canvas to create a dream rural retreat. Imagine transforming it into:
- A luxurious private estate with multiple living spaces
- A boutique rural guest house or bed & breakfast
- Elegant venue for weddings, events, or retreats
- Eco-tourism accommodation, glamping site, or campsite
- Sustainable agri-tourism project combining accommodation with land-based activities

The generous layout across two floors in the main houses, plus versatile outbuildings, lends itself perfectly to multi-unit development – ideal for generating income while enjoying the tranquil Valencian countryside.

The expansive land features productive almond groves, areas of natural forest, and unplanted sections ripe for cultivation or outdoor pursuits. Opportunities abound for organic farming, horse keeping, hiking trails, yoga retreats, or even off-grid enhancements like solar installations.

While significant investment is required for renovation, the rewards could be substantial – both lifestyle and financial. The current owner has researched potential European and regional grants available through programmes like Next Generation EU funds and Valencian Community initiatives, which often support energy-efficient reforms in rural properties (focusing on insulation, renewables, and sustainability). These can cover a meaningful portion of costs, though typically reimbursed post-completion and subject to eligibility.

This is a rare chance to revive a piece of Spanish heritage into something truly special. Just 5 minutes' drive from Sax with its amenities, castle, and festivals, yet immersed in peaceful nature – perfect for those seeking a rewarding project.
