Building Plot for sale in Villaricos, Cuevas del Almanzora, Almería

Just 132 metres from the sea, right in the heart of Villaricos and set between its two small harbours, this plot enjoys a truly privileged location. A setting where life unfolds at the gentle pace of an authentic fishing village, with the sea always close at hand.
Daily life here is best enjoyed at an unhurried rhythm: a morning coffee on a terrace, a swim in the sea, a quiet read on the beach or a stroll through the village’s small local shops. On Sundays, the lively street market, only 100 metres away, fills the streets with colour, atmosphere and a wonderful selection of local produce.
The plot is sloping, which requires a more considered architectural approach, yet it also brings clear advantages: from the first floor, open views of the Mediterranean can already be enjoyed, along with excellent orientation and abundant natural light.
To help illustrate its potential, an indicative concept design has been prepared. The idea suggests a semi-detached home arranged over three levels: a garage level, a first floor dedicated to rest with a lounge-style terrace, and an upper level featuring a spacious open-plan living area with kitchen and a covered terrace enjoying sea views. At the rear, there is also the possibility to create a private garden with swimming pool. This concept is purely illustrative; the future owner is free to develop their own project in accordance with current planning regulations.

Villaricos is a charming coastal village within the municipality of Cuevas del Almanzora, located between a traditional fishing harbour and a marina. The village offers pebble beaches within the centre and a wide sandy beach at its entrance, as well as beautiful natural coves set among rocky formations, all benefiting from a particularly pleasant microclimate.
The area is also rich in history, with remains of Phoenician and Roman settlements, alongside traces of early 20th-century silver mining activity.
Its location is highly convenient: Vera (approx. 7 minutes), Mojácar (around 20 minutes) and San Juan de los Terreros (15 minutes). The airports of Almería, Murcia and Alicante are all within reasonable distance, and the forthcoming high-speed rail connection, with a station in Vera, will further enhance accessibility.
Today, Villaricos combines history and authenticity with year-round life, offering a calm atmosphere that has retained its true character.
