About this place
This exceptional 70,000 m² plot of land in Soportújar offers a unique opportunity for development, featuring a ruin with previously granted planning permission for a large dwelling or wellness centre. The permit may be easily renewed, making this a prime candidate for a high-end retreat or hotel.
Located high in the hills above Soportújar, this property boasts spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and the distant sea. The land includes approximately 7 hectares (17 acres), with new tree growth recently established. Planning permission was originally granted for a luxury retreat centre with nine en-suite bedrooms and indoor and outdoor spaces suitable for yoga, qigong, tai chi, and gatherings such as weddings.
The property also includes a threshing circle and permissions for well drilling, along with two reservoir licences. Mains electricity has been negotiated with neighbouring properties, and access is provided via a well-maintained semi-tarmacked road. Soportújar is a charming village known for its whitewashed houses, rich culture, and hiking opportunities, making this plot not only a view of natural beauty but a potential hub for tourism and retreat activities.

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
