Property Ref: SPG24565_D

REDUCED FROM 380.000 € to 199.000 € (= 7,62 €/m2): This fantastic finca plot with authorization to use it for building a rural hotel is only 1 km (10 min. walk) from the centre of Casarabonela, a typical old Andalusian-Arabic village. It enjoys unbeatable views to the village, the mountains behind and all over the valley, even as far as Alhaurín El Grande and Coin. Building license had been granted, yet needs to be renewed, for the construction of 566 m2 built size (336 m2 enclosed area and 100 m2 open interior courtyard, surrounded by 130 m2 of covered porch), with big lounge-dining-bar area with chimney and terrace, orientated to the gorgeous views. Around the courtyard the plans include 9 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms plus 2 guest-toilets. All was planned on one level. Nevertheless a completely new project could also be carried out. We can supply detailed rules for that from the Town Hall. The land is South-West orientated with sun all day long. A flat area of approx. 5.000 m2 is already prepared for the construction and main garden. The remaining parts of the finca are kept in its natural state with many olive, fig, Spanish oak, almond and pine trees. One of the most beautiful plots in the whole village!

Casarabonela belongs to the "Reserva de la Biosfera Sierra de las Nieves", a biosphere reserve declared by the UNESCO, due to its special nature. It is situated in the centre of Málaga Province: 40 min. drive to Málaga, 50 min. to Marbella, 50 min. to Ronda and 50 min. to Antequera and only 30 min. drive to the Ardales/El Chorro Lakes, therefore offering many destinations nearby for tourists to explore.

The project was declared of "Interés Social" (social interest), the use of the rural plot for construction of a hotel was allowed by the Andalusian Government in Málaga and building license was granted. The license needs to be re-applied for, which can be done easily at the Town Hall, or a new license for a different project can be granted. We can provide detailed information sent by the Town Hall regarding the paperwork procedure for this. The "use" of the land for a hotel does not prescribe ever. When building the hotel 10 % of the material construction costs of the building (to be calculated by the Architect´s college and much less than the real costs) has to be paid as cession to the Town Hall, as the project is of Social Interest, and this money will be invested into the village patrimony.

The land has an own electricity post already established and the Town Hall has agreed to connect town water, as the project was declared as "initiative for local employment". The Town Hall has already installed Town water in the area and the access road to the finca has been tarmagged.

In the upper part, near to the oak trees, a culturally protected "era" still exists and forms a fantastic viewpoint, where a glass pavilion could be put to enjoy the extraordinary views (but no construction with foundation).

The second part of the finca, directly next to the first one, offers a natural flat area in the middle / upper area, with beautiful views to the village and its mountain chain behind. On this land an authorization has been granted already to dig a well for watering the garden, for example.

The property can be bought by transferring the existing SL company "La Sonrisa de Andalucía, S.L.". The S.L. company was established in 1998 and has been trading, not only holding the land. The purchaser can go on developing the land with the same documents, under the same name.
