Historic Estate in Santa Faz - A Legacy of History and Elegance Property Features The estate consist

Alicante’s most enchanting chapter of 20th-century aristocracy is waiting for its next custodian. Hidden behind century-old pines on a secluded 10,255 m² plateau in Santa Faz, the storied "Ruaya" estate rises with the poised symmetry of a 1940 Colonial masterpiece: hipped roof, broad southeast-facing façades and 416 m² of noble rooms that once echoed with the conversations of composers, poets and even Saint-Exupéry—who famously dipped his wings in greeting above these very gardens. Today the mansion stands ready for a sensitive renaissance. Original hydraulic tiles, soaring ceiling heights and ornate plasterwork remain intact, offering an authentic canvas for a private palace, boutique hotel or an ultra-exclusive events venue where jasmine scents drift through arcaded terraces and the Sierra de Santa Faz frames every sunset. A separate 59 m² outbuilding—perfect for a tasting room, artist’s studio or guest pavilion—adds flexibility without compromising the estate’s graceful proportions. Location is effortlessly convenient: glide into central Alicante or onto the silky sands of San Juan in 15 minutes; medical, academic and sporting amenities lie within a five-minute radius. Yet within the perimeter wall you are wrapped in pastoral calm—an oasis of palms, citrus and whispering pines that feels continents away from the coast. For investors with vision, this is more than a property; it is a legacy asset. The combination of buildable volume, historical pedigree and privileged setting positions Ruaya as a trophy holding poised for significant appreciation once restored to its rightful splendour.
