About this place
This farm in Gaucín spans approximately 30 hectares, featuring a mix of flat and steep terrain alongside two bordered streams and a mountain ridge. It benefits from a natural spring and is abundant in woodland, including carob, holm oak, and wild olive trees. Additionally, there is an orchard boasting old orange, mandarin, pear, and persimmon trees.
The property includes a water tank requiring repair and the remains of three adjacent buildings, which are roofless and in a dilapidated state. Access to the farm is through a dirt track, necessitating a 4x4 vehicle for most of the year. Situated in a very peaceful area of Gaucín, it is about 4 km from the main road and approximately 12 km from the nearest town, making it a rare find for those seeking a tranquil lifestyle close to nature.

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
