Finca/Country House for sale in Villena, Alicante

We are pleased to present this traditional country house, located in the unique and peaceful setting of the Sierra de Salinas, within the well-known ecological farming colony in the area.

The property offers a total built area of 205 m² and sits on an extensive 122,916 m² plot, fully planted with almond and olive trees and currently in production. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a large working plot in an area known for its eco-friendly and sustainable agricultural practices, where residents from various countries live and farm the land.

The House

The main house offers 148 m² over two floors and is a traditional property dating back to 1910, retaining many original features. The property does require full renovation and updating, making it an ideal project for those looking to restore a character home in a truly special location.

On the ground floor, you enter into a living and dining area, featuring a large original fireplace, historically used for cooking, as well as a traditional bread oven, adding to the authentic charm of the property.

From here, a hallway leads to three additional rooms, currently used as storage and a bedroom, along with a smaller room that could potentially be converted into a bathroom.

There is also a rear door which leads into the garage/storage area (57 m²), which offers further possibilities for conversion.

A staircase from the entrance leads to the first floor, where you will find a large open-plan space, offering flexibility to create additional bedrooms or living areas depending on your needs.

The roof is in reasonable condition but would benefit from inspection as part of the renovation.

This is a renovation project, but there are already several beautifully restored homes in the area which showcase the full potential of properties like this.

The Land & Location

The property is set within a protected ecological area, meaning the natural surroundings are preserved and offer exceptional panoramic views from its elevated position on the mountainside.

Access is good, with a tarmac road leading most of the way to the property, with only a short section of dirt track before reaching the main access road.

The plot itself is fully productive and well maintained, planted with olive and almond trees, making it ideal for those interested in sustainable living or agricultural use.

The land is also officially certified as organic by the relevant certification body, which allows the production of almonds and olives to achieve higher market value compared to conventional farming.

There are neighbouring properties nearby, providing a sense of community while still maintaining privacy and tranquillity.

Due to the protected nature of the area, it is important to note that no extensions or new constructions are permitted, meaning the existing structure must be renovated rather than expanded.

This is a unique opportunity to acquire a traditional country property with extensive land, set in a truly stunning natural environment. Ideal for those seeking a renovation project, off-grid lifestyle, or eco-focused living in one of the most special areas of the region.
