About this place
Situated near the river in Benarrabá, this country house is ripe for renovation, encompassing an extensive 20,000 m² plot. The irrigated section of approximately 4,000 m² boasts a variety of old fruit trees, including orange, persimmon, avocado, and medlar, perfect for cultivating your own produce.
The house is divided into two wings, each covering around 60 m² across two floors. The infrastructure requires significant work, including new floors, a roof, and additional installations. A traditional oven adds rustic appeal, complemented by a separate stone structure of 15 m², previously used for animals.
This property is conveniently accessible from a local lane and is approximately 5 km from main roads. While it embodies a sense of remoteness, it is not completely isolated, with a few neighbours in the vicinity, making it a tranquil yet connected retreat.

Buying property in Spain
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
