Property for sale in Alhama de Murcia

If you are looking for your perfect property for sale in Alhama de Murcia,then you might want to find out more about it:

Alhama lies in the Valley of the river Guadalentín at the foot of the Espuña and La Muela ranges. Defence towers, ruined town walls, renaissance-style palaces, and mansions of the former nobility are all part of the legacy of the valley’s varied history.
To the Romans and Moors this town meant the thermal springs flowing off the mountain. This is, in fact, what gives the town its name, Al-hama, meaning hot springs in Arabic. There are also the ruins of the older Roman baths that demonstrate the great age of the utilization of the springs in the area. It was the Roman baths established in the 1st century AD that were further developed and used into the Islamic period.
On the rocky outcrop overlooking the town stands a 12th-century Arab castle around which the town eventually grew. A walk through the town reveals a surprisingly rich range of colours used in the façades of the houses; red, ochres, violets and blues all add to the pleasantness of a stroll through the town.

Alhama is located in a privileged setting in the heart of the Región de Murcia, in the fertile valley of the river Guadalentín, at the foot of the Natural Park of Sierra Espuña and Sierra de la Muela and a few kilometres from the beach and most important towns in region. A year-round favorable climate, yet to be discovered corners and spaces: Alhama de Murcia, a spring of possibilities. Mountain and beach, your choice where to look for your ideal property for sale
