Multi-Level Villa with Lemon Grove in Orihuela

About this property

OverviewThis 495 m², three-level villa stands on a 1,000 m² plot within a larger fully fenced 9,480 m² agricultural estate. The estate’s entire perimeter is enclosed, separating it from the surrounding plots. A working lemon plantation uses traditional irrigation methods and currently produces Verna lemons, generating approximately €15,000–€20,000 in annual revenue, depending on seasonal output and weather conditions.

The villa offers five bedrooms, three bathrooms and several flexible-use rooms for entertaining, working and fitness. Its layout combines generous living spaces with practical areas for storage, hobbies and everyday life.

It also contains a private bedroom and a walk-in dressing room adapted for use as a shoe closet or seasonal wardrobe storage.

Ground floor — 178 m²: A wide entrance opens into a large living room with a raised ceiling that connects visually with the upper floor. The spacious, independent kitchen has direct access to a purpose-built outdoor barbecue area with a sink and wood-fired oven.

Living in Orihuela and BigastroOne of the Vega Baja del Segura region’s most historic and architecturally rich towns, Orihuela offers healthcare centres, educational institutions and a full calendar of cultural events. Its old town is home to museums, Baroque churches and noble palaces, while weekly markets, a strong culinary tradition and an active community make it a lively place to live year-round.

Just a few minutes away, Bigastro offers a smaller, more intimate setting and an authentic Spanish town experience, with essential amenities, traditional fiestas and access to the Segura River for walks and cycling. Known for its local cuisine and friendly atmosphere, it complements Orihuela’s historic character with everyday convenience. Together, the two towns provide the infrastructure for permanent living, a rural business or a weekend retreat.
