About this place

The Cortijo de la Finca "El Recreo" boasts a rich history and retains many characteristics of traditional Andalusian architecture. The layout features a central courtyard providing access to a spacious kitchen-room equipped with a wood-fired oven and a modern industrial cold room, alongside a living-dining area and two offices.

The main house includes eight bedrooms and two bathrooms across 300 square metres. With the potential for renovation, it could easily serve as a restaurant/bar or be transformed into a small rural hotel. In addition, the property comprises two independent flats, each with a living room, bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom.

Set within a sprawling 32,000 square metres, the property is designed for equestrian use, featuring 20 stables, an equestrian and warm-up track, and various outbuildings like hangars and breeding stables. The town planning provisions allow for the construction of 112 houses, marking it as buildable land according to Velez-Malaga Town Hall.

The cortijo benefits from two registered water wells with a 100,000-litre deposit, supplemented by municipal water infrastructure, enhancing its operational potential. Located just 1 kilometre from beautiful Costa del Sol beaches and 3 kilometres from Torre del Mar’s amenities, it is perfectly positioned for a holiday equestrian club or rental venture, with Malaga International Airport only 35 minutes away and the Añoreta golf course within a 10-minute drive.

Buying property in Spain

Full guide →

Spain welcomes foreign buyers with no nationality restrictions. The buyer needs an NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero) before completion, and most buyers open a Spanish bank account to handle the deposit and ongoing charges. An independent lawyer (abogado) is strongly recommended — the notario only checks the deed, not the wider title.

  • Spain ended its Golden Visa property route in April 2025.

  • Non-resident mortgages are widely available, typically 60–70% LTV.

  • Non-resident sellers face a 3% withholding from the sale price (retención), claimable against capital gains tax.

Always check community-of-owners (comunidad) debts and outstanding IBI before completion — they transfer with the property.

General guidance only — confirm specifics with a qualified local lawyer or tax adviser. Reference
