Mansions for sale in Almería
where the land stays open.

Granada lies to the west and the Region of Murcia to the north-east. Between the sea and the mountains, life here moves at an unhurried pace.

Grand homes between desert and sea

On the coast, the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park sets the tone: a protected volcanic shoreline where new building is kept to a minimum. Further north, Mojácar climbs its hill above the sea, and the coast around Vera and Garrucha leaves room for a large home with a view.

Inland, the landscape opens into the Tabernas desert and the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. Here Almería mansions usually take the form of a country estate, with thick walls, shaded terraces and land all around.

When you tell us what you are looking for, it helps to weigh a few local questions early.

• Water supply and irrigation rights on rural land
• Planning limits inside protected natural areas
