About this place
Steeped in more than five centuries of history, this remarkable country estate comprises a grand mansion house, a gatehouse, an old mill, and a charming casita, all nestled within magnificent gardens over 4,700 m² of land. The main mansion features an entrance hall, vaulted drawing room with an original stone fireplace, a dining room capable of seating twenty-five, a farmhouse-style kitchen, and a large games room, providing ample space for both relaxation and entertainment.
On the first floor, you’ll find eight unique en-suite bedrooms, many offering south-facing views of the gardens. Exceptionally designed, two additional en-suite bedrooms are located in the tower, with one boasting a small roof terrace. The gatehouse, a restored two-storey house, offers five bedrooms and a spacious kitchen/diner that opens to the gardens and swimming pool.
Complementing the main residences, the estate includes a fully refurbished old mill ideal for various uses, and a recently renovated casita with three twin bedrooms and a modern kitchen. The expansive gardens showcase beautiful Moorish ornamental designs, hidden pathways, and recreational areas, all featuring fountains and multiple bars.
Additional services include mains electricity and water, central heating through a diesel boiler, and solar heating for water.

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
