Real estate in Los Alcázares

Much of the real estate Los Alcázares offers began as summer houses, since families from Murcia have spent their summers here for generations. Many of the older homes still stand close to the water, while newer ones favour clean lines, pools and terraces, reaching for light rather than height.

Life turns towards the lagoon. Sailing, paddleboarding and windsurfing are easy on its sheltered water, golf is within reach inland, and Cartagena and Murcia are a short drive away. For a harbour town with a different character, Mazarrón lies further along the Murcia coast.

Before you buy on the Mar Menor

The lagoon's water quality has been a public concern, and parts of the town lie low and have flooded after heavy autumn storms. A careful purchase starts with the ground beneath the house. Your lawyer handles due diligence and the notary, and should confirm the rules that apply.

• The flood history of the street, its drainage and the height of the ground floor.
• Recent public reports on the state of the Mar Menor.
• Licences for pools, extensions and roof terraces already built.
• Orientation for winter sun and shelter from the prevailing wind.
