About this place
This stunning 8-bedroom, 5-bathroom cortijo provides a spacious family residence with a wealth of character. The property, which has been thoughtfully renovated, encompasses approximately 651 square metres and is set on a generous 6,720 square metre plot, including a charming swimming pool and various outbuildings.
The ground floor opens into a welcoming entrance hall adorned with wooden floors and a featured wall, leading to a large open-plan country-style kitchen and dining area. A utility room and family bathroom are easily accessible, alongside a lovely covered terrace boasting breathtaking views of La Muela hillside. The formal lounge, with its exposed rock wall and log burner, provides a cosy atmosphere for relaxation.
On the upper floor, a landing/study area connects to three sizeable bedrooms, including a master bedroom with built-in wardrobes, air conditioning, and a private terrace. The property also maintains its original layout as two independent homes, offering facilities for flexible living arrangements.
Beyond the interiors, the exterior features a variety of useful outbuildings, including an old bakery, a separate self-contained one-bedroom apartment, and barns for storage.

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
