Reasons why you should buy a country house in Spain

Don't delay in getting your hands on one of these large and cheap countryside properties in Spain to take advantage of all these benefits:

  • Lower price: On most occasions, houses built in small villages or what is known as rustic land are much cheaper than those located in big cities in Spain.
  • Rural properties pay less IBI (property tax): Another advantage that has to do with savings is that the disbursement for the Property Tax will be lower.
  • Peace of mind: Living away from the hustle and bustle of the cities will reduce your stress and anxiety and make it easier for you to rest and disconnect.
  • Physical and mental health: Surrounding yourself with fresh air and getting away from the pollution characteristic of big cities will promote your wellbeing.
  • Home appreciation: You can also see it as an investment in case you decide to make it profitable in the future, as people are moving more towards buying bigger, detached houses rather than flats in the city.

Modern and rustic decoration in the Spanish countryside

One of the best parts of buying a countryside property in Spain is the flexibility to decorate it and make it your own. Here are some suggestions:

  • Wood is key 

It could be said that wood is the material that best adapts to these spaces given their rural location. You can include it in an infinite variety of elements: from small decorative objects such as vases or photo frames, to walls, ceilings and beams. It will also act as a thermal and acoustic insulator.

  • White as the main colour

To soften the presence of rustic wood, combine it with white. You can also include hints of autumnal colours such as brown or green to give vitality and warmth to the home.

  • Mix rustic with modern

Combine the warmth of rustic style with modern touches, such as black accents, soft rugs and large fibre lamps.

  • Recycle old furniture

As well as having personal value, you can keep these pieces and touch them up or do some up-cycling if you feel they deserve it, so you don't have to overspend on furniture.

  • Flowers and plants

You are in the middle of the countryside, so it is important to blend in with the environment and use what you see behind your window: use fresh flowers and plants to decorate your house.
