About this place
This magnificent property spans 228 m², set on a rural plot of 8,400 m² in a peaceful area with good access to Álora. The single-storey main house, approximately 100 m², features an entrance hall that leads to a spacious living-dining room complete with a fireplace, an independent fully equipped kitchen, and three bedrooms—two of which include fitted wardrobes. The bathroom is fully appointed, and there is a lovely porch-terrace of about 30 m² for outdoor enjoyment.
In addition to the main living space, the estate offers a multipurpose room with a shower and laundry area, which can be transformed into guest accommodation. The property includes covered parking for two vehicles, a tool room, and a technical room for the pool purifier. The expansive plot primarily functions as a lemon orchard, providing a serene oasis with a swimming pool, pergola, and various gardens featuring seating areas. Water supply is serviced by both a legalised well and ongoing connections to the municipal network.
Álora, often referred to as the 'Puerta del Caminito del Rey', provides a high quality of life and a strategic location—about 30 km from Malaga city and just a 30-minute drive from its international airport. The area is well-connected by road and suburban rail, making local exploration convenient. It is situated near the renowned Caminito del Rey and the popular climbing area of El Chorro, adding to its appeal for tourists and residents alike.
This property holds registration in the Register of Homes for Tourist Purposes, presenting a lucrative investment opportunity for high-end rural accommodation. The locality was designated as a Tourist Heritage Site in 2020 and has seen increasing demand for authentic inland experiences, making this a valuable opportunity for both primary residence or investment purposes.

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
