Land in El Cortijo Grande, Turre

Description

Building plots for sale in the Cortijo Cabrera Urbanization, located in the mountains of Turre, just 6 km from the town center. The plots have a minimum size of 1000 square meters and are available with or without a building project. The maximum allowable buildable area is 135 square meters. From these plots, residents can enjoy panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, the Sierra Cabrera mountains, and the stunning coastline of eastern Almeria. Sierra Cabrera is situated in the province of Almeria, mainly within the municipalities of Turre and Mojacar. Its highest peaks reach nearly 1000 meters above sea level, including La Mezquita at 962 meters and Arráez at 919 meters, occasionally experiencing snowfall. The area features numerous small farms and hamlets such as La Carrasca, Los Moralicos, Aljuezar, Jacís, Alcandía, La Adelfa, Teresa, Cova Negra, Mofar, El Dondo, Cufría, and Cortetes. Most of these are abandoned or sparsely populated, with only Cortijo Cabrera and Cortijo Grande maintaining some residents due to residential tourism, while El Agua Enmedio and El Sopalmo are inhabited because of their proximity to the coast. The landscape of Sierra Cabrera is characterized by higher rainfall than the rest of the Levante Almeriense, combined with maritime humidity, creating a lush, green coastal mountain range. The terrain around the farms is shaped by human activity, featuring terraced fields, irrigation channels, and old orchards with carob trees, almond trees, olive trees, fig trees, pomegranate trees, vineyards, prickly pears, and agaves. Geologically, the lower areas consist of siliceous materials, while the peaks are mainly limestone formations. The contact zones between these types of rocks host numerous springs and water sources. The southern slopes are predominantly siliceous, and the shaded northern slopes are mainly calcareous. Sierra Cabrera, also known as the Sierra of Turre and Mojacar, is primarily a destination for residential tourism, especially luxury homes. Its appeal lies in the combination of tranquility, natural beauty, and proximity to Mojacar and the Mediterranean coast.
