Finca/Country House for sale in Salinas, Alicante

Fantastic opportunity to acquire a spacious country home with enormous potential, set on an impressive plot of almost 20,000m² of productive olive groves.

Built by the current owner, an experienced builder, this substantial 163m² property is already well advanced and offers the rare chance to complete and personalise a home with excellent structure, generous proportions and future flexibility. Due to ill health, the final stages were never finished, leaving a property that is now ready for a new owner to add the finishing touches and create something truly special.

The house is arranged over two floors and already offers a solid and attractive base, with tiled flooring throughout, a feature staircase with decorative tiled risers and wrought-iron balustrade, solid wood internal doors, and a number of completed spaces including the kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms.

On the ground floor, a large covered porch provides a wonderful entrance space to enjoy the peaceful setting, with open views towards the mountains and the Salinas salt marsh. Inside, the house opens into a spacious lounge and dining area with open-plan kitchen, creating a sociable and practical heart of the home. The fireplace gives the living space warmth and character, while the kitchen already includes fitted units, an oven, extractor and a generous breakfast bar. There is also an adjoining utility/storage room, ideal for practical day-to-day use.

Also on this floor are two double bedrooms and a fully fitted family bathroom, making the property immediately functional while further work is completed upstairs.

The first floor is currently configured in an attic-style layout with sloping ceilings and exposed beams, and already includes one finished bedroom and a complete bathroom. The remaining space is open and highly versatile, giving the next owner the opportunity to create at least two additional double bedrooms, or alternatively one bedroom with a separate lounge, studio area or even a second kitchen. The original intention was to create a self-contained apartment, so the potential here is particularly appealing for multi-generational living, guest accommodation or rental use.

Externally, the house is fully rendered and features natural stone cladding to approximately one metre in height, giving it a strong Mediterranean country-house feel. To complete the exterior, the walls require a final coat of coloured render (monocapa), allowing the new owner to choose the finish that best suits their taste. A soft white or warm cream/yellow tone would complement the stonework beautifully.

In addition to the main house, there is an annex building currently divided into a garage and outdoor kitchen. This could remain as practical storage and entertaining space, or be converted into guest accommodation, subject to the necessary permissions and works.

There are also two further unfinished projects on the plot:

A double car port
A planned 10m x 5m swimming pool
These add even more value and long-term potential to what is already an exciting property.

One of the standout features is unquestionably the land. The plot of almost 20,000m² is planted with olive trees, offering not only privacy and a beautiful rural outlook, but also the possibility of a modest agricultural income. Importantly, the size of the plot may also allow for additional building of up to 2% of the plot size, subject to planning permission, which is a significant advantage for anyone considering future extensions or additional accommodation.

The area immediately around the house is fenced and includes welcome natural shade from mature pine and mulberry trees, creating a pleasant outdoor environment around the home. The property also benefits from mains electricity, drinking water and irrigation water.

Overall, this is a property with genuine substance: a spacious rural home with much of the heavy work already done, excellent flexibility in layout, annex potential, pool potential, and a superb plot in a peaceful yet accessible location. For buyers with vision, this is the kind of opportunity that can be transformed into a beautiful family home, country retreat or investment with income possibilities.
