Townhouse for sale in Alcalá la Real, Jaén

Can you imagine living at the foot of a castle?

Wake up every day in a home located next to one of the most important monumental complexes in Alcalá la Real, with the Fortaleza de la Mota as part of your everyday landscape.

In the heart of the historic setting of Alcalá la Real, this unique property stands out: a house with spaciousness, character, and extraordinary potential for those seeking a different kind of home, with history, space, and real possibilities for transformation.

With a surface area of 484 m2 and 504 m2 built.

This is not a conventional home. It is a spacious, urban, and distinctive property, made up of a habitable main house, garage areas, a garden, a pond, and an old attached building with traditional rammed-earth (tapial) and stone walls, a roof with a wooden structure, and rooms that are ready to be recovered to restore their interior aesthetics. A home designed for those who want something more than just a house: a life project, an investment with identity, or a charming property to develop—an accommodation for tourism, a contemporary country house, or a large family home.

The property combines a bright, functional habitable area with traditional spaces full of potential. It features three bedrooms, a living room, a dining room, a kitchen, bathrooms, and balconies facing the main street, as well as ample interior areas. The main house retains that Andalusian village home atmosphere—solid, generous, and family-oriented—with spacious rooms and a layout that allows you to move in right away while planning a more ambitious refurbishment.

But what is truly special is its potential. Next to the current home, an old building is preserved, with rammed-earth (tapial) and stone walls, a traditional wooden structural framework, several rooms to rehabilitate, and an old kitchen with a fireplace. A space with a beauty that is hard to find today: noble materials, building craftsmanship, and the possibility of creating a spectacular interior where the historic and contemporary architecture can converse.

The house also has a large garage with capacity for several vehicles, and a second area linked to the property that adds even more value: an additional plot with parking, a garden, and a water pond—ideal for creating a private patio, a relaxation area, a terrace, a small Mediterranean garden, or an outdoor space for family or tourist use.

Its location is one of its great strengths. Living here means being on a street with history, within an authentic urban setting, with the monumental presence of the Fortaleza de la Mota as a backdrop. A location with appeal both for everyday residence and for a tourist, cultural, or boutique accommodation project.

This property is not just any house. It is an opportunity to recover a piece with identity, create an extraordinary home, and highlight an architecture that is almost no longer being built.

A house to live history. And also to write the next chapter.
