House in Alhaurín el Grande

Nestled along the serene banks of the Fahala River in Alhaurín el Grande, this substantial detached villa project presents a rare architectural proposition for those seeking a bespoke residence in inland Andalusia. The property is set upon an expansive rural plot of 9,400 m², offering total privacy and a direct connection to the natural landscapes of the Guadalhorce Valley. This shell construction serves as a robust structural framework, allowing the future owner to dictate every finish and detail of their Mediterranean retreat while being just minutes from the vibrant local town center.

The internal layout is intelligently distributed across two levels, totaling 600 m² of built space. The ground floor spans 400 m² and is characterized by its vast open-plan versatility, making it suitable for a high-capacity garage, a professional workshop, or perhaps a separate guest apartment complex. Moving to the first floor, the 200 m² design focuses on residential comfort with plans for two oversized bedrooms featuring en-suite bathrooms and an integrated kitchen and living area. This level opens directly onto a 100 m² terrace, specifically designed to incorporate a private swimming pool with panoramic views over the rustic countryside.

Technical infrastructure is well-considered for a project of this scale, featuring its own private well and a dedicated water storage system. While the structure was initiated in 2001, it remains a solid blank canvas with electricity and mains water connections available at the plot boundary. The surrounding 9,400 m² of flat land is an agricultural or horticultural asset, providing ample space for olive groves, fruit trees, or even facilities for equestrian interests, all while benefiting from the unique riverside microclimate.

The location in Alhaurín el Grande is highly strategic for international residents. Situated between the Sierra de Mijas and the valley, the town offers authentic Spanish culture alongside modern amenities including supermarkets, diverse dining options, and medical centers. Connectivity is a major highlight; the golden beaches of the Costa del Sol and Málaga International Airport are reachable within a 30-minute drive, ensuring that this peaceful rural setting remains within easy reach of global transport hubs and coastal leisure.
