A unique historic building plot in Santa Cruz de La Palma is waiting for your creative design:
Currently, the ruins of a Canarian townhouse from 1900 bear witness to a bygone era – with traces of a living room, two bedrooms, a kitchen, a bathroom, a characteristic patio and a roof terrace. There are also fragmentary details such as the old TEA wooden floors, windows, shutters and doors, as well as remnants of the original antique kitchen. These remains form the basis for your building project, in which the past could blend harmoniously with the future.
​
Potential for two floors:
Imagine a townhouse spread over two floors, with spacious, light-filled living areas characterised by high ceilings and large windows. On the ground floor, the salon could become an open, inviting living space that flows into a modern kitchen and dining area. The former bedrooms offer space for a private retreat or creative workspaces. The central element, the patio, could become an idyllic courtyard – a hidden garden in the middle of the city, surrounded by walls that tell stories.
​
The roof terrace – your personal paradise:
Transform the existing roof terrace into your private paradise! This could be the perfect place to enjoy sunny days and starry nights, surrounded by the warm atmosphere of a cosy outdoor living room or an inviting outdoor kitchen. Here you can relax and unwind amidst flowering plants and under the open sky.
​
Location and ambience:
The urban building plot is located in the quiet, historically significant Baltasar Martín alley in the heart of Santa Cruz de La Palma. As Baltasar Martín alley is a one-way street and only used by residents, life here is more than peaceful. This idyllic neighbourhood offers the perfect combination of historical atmosphere and modern city life. It is only a few minutes' walk to the Mercado or the O'Daly shopping and promenade and the city beach. A morning dip in the Atlantic, a jog along the sea or a leisurely stroll through the shopping streets are just some of the many advantages this property has to offer.
​
Freedom of planning and design options:
According to the current development plan, you may erect a two-storey building on this property. Due to the proximity of this historic townhouse to the art monument, the façade in particular should harmonise with the characteristics of the location, even after renovation.
This historic townhouse can be converted either for living and enjoyment or, given its ideal location, for tourist use and rental to holidaymakers.
​
Electricity, drinking water, street lighting and telephony, and sewerage are available on the street.
The details can be found in the INFORME URBANÍSTICA, which we will of course provide you with if you are interested in purchasing.

Take advantage of this opportunity and start your journey to your dream home with MI CASA EN LA PALMA – an affordable property just waiting to be renovated and transformed.
WHAT'S AROUND THE CORNER?
=> Santa Cruz de La Palma
Santa Cruz de La Palma, the small but very charming capital of our Isla Bonita, was founded on 3 May 1493 and has since been declared a cultural asset in its entirety in the category of ‘historical and artistic sites’.
The city centre is located at sea level, but the municipality extends to an altitude of 1,800 metres.
So you can live right in the capital, but also in the countryside – and yet still be ‘IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY’!
Tips:
Just stroll around: Calle O'Daly and Calle Real, together with Avenida Marítima, are colonial in style, with beautiful colourful façades, charming little squares and enchanting alleys that are worth strolling through, as well as charming shops, bars and restaurants.
Discover the town hall, Plaza de España and El Salvador Church, undoubtedly the most beautiful Renaissance complex in the Canary Islands. Be sure to visit the interior of the church and its fantastic coffered ceilings!
The Balcones de la Avenida Marítima are probably one of the most famous images of Santa Cruz de La Palma. A group of small houses painted in different colours with beautiful wooden balconies full of flowers.
You must sit down and enjoy a coffee in the Plaza de la Alameda!
P.S. Take the lift to the upper town with its heart and great views: San Telmo!
La Recova: The capital's market hall! Even if you don't want to buy anything there, it's well worth a visit just for the typical southern European flair.
NATOUR: Are active holidays your thing? NATOUR offers great group and individual hiking trips! Take a look!
Los Indianos: Simply the most original carnival in the world! An unmissable event where locals and visitors come together in a gigantic white flood.

Playa de Santa Cruz de La Palma: The capital's city beach, a sprawling sandy beach of volcanic origin, with unique sunrises!
Muelle pesquero: Fishing harbour with its own fish shop selling the best freshly caught fish on the island! Be there at 9 a.m. when the boats return!
