Rural Spain, forgotten in terms of the population and in terms of the news, got an excellent advertisement these days, that might be of interest for some investors. Especially at a low price - 50 properties in the town of Barcena de Bureba in Burgos are advertised on the Idealista portal for only 350,000 euros.
It is true that the pandemic has led to demand for neglected houses This simple fact has helped in part to create the so-called "empty Spain". Isolation and high traffic caused the increased interest in purchasing rural homes over the past few months.
Now, for example, a village of 5,000 m2 in Segovia is put on sale at a lower price than a small apartment in the center of a large city. Another Castilian-Leonese city in just 40 kilometers from Burgos has joined this eye-catching advertisement this time.
This is what Barcena de Bureba looks like
Barcena de Bureba started the process of depopulation in the 80s. It is put up for sale on the Idealista portal for 350,000 euros. There are about 50 abandoned houses on its territory and all of them are included in accommodation cost, along with the Romanesque church with a preserved apse, a presbytery and a bell tower.
Many houses can be restored because of their construction with ash walls and have electricity and water supply. This makes them quite suitable for reconstruction. The entire land plot of 25,000 square meters, 4,000 square meters are under construction, is the part of a recovery plan to restore abandoned Spain.
