Electrician for the Seville Port District, Spain: the 700 homes by Avenida de las Razas

Seville Port District new homes: from port use to housing

East of Avenida de las Razas, the Port of Seville owns about 165,000 m² of land that until now was for industrial use. At the request of the Port Authority, the planning is being changed so it becomes residential, with room for up to 700 homes, 226 of them subsidised. The change was provisionally approved in February 2025 and its final approval was proposed in October 2025. Forecasts put the homes from 2028 onwards.

The area sits between the Sur and Bellavista-La Palmera districts of Seville, and its appeal is that it stitches together neighbourhoods that today turn their backs on the port: Heliópolis, Reina Mercedes and Los Bermejales.

A small neighbourhood among established ones

With 700 homes, the Port District is small compared with Santa Bárbara or El Pítamo. That has a practical consequence: there will not be dozens of developments at once but a few plots, and many buyers will probably come from the neighbourhoods next door. If you live today in an older flat in the area, with a fuse board of few circuits, the electrical leap will be big: you will move to a home with a high electrification grade, data points and charging in the garage.

The numbers say that of the 700 homes, about 474 will be private and 226 subsidised. Two buyer profiles with different needs, covered below.

The documents that matter

In an area still at planning stage, the most valuable thing we can do for you is help you demand the right paperwork. If you are buying from abroad, ask for it by email so there is a record. This is what to request, in this order:

1. Signed specification sheet (memoria de calidades), with the electrical and telecoms section in detail: number of circuits, switches, points per room and pre-installations.
2. Electrical plan of your home, showing every light point, socket and data point. It is the basis for requesting changes and, later, for placing furniture without surprises.
3. Garage plan with the charging conduit, to see where the tube reaches your space and how far it is from the meter room.
4. At handover, the boletín, the electrical installation certificate registered with the regional industry department, and the fuse board diagram with labelled circuits.

With these documents, any later extension (a circuit for the induction hob, a charger, a secondary board) can be quoted in minutes without extra visits.

Private homes: finished the way you want

For buyers of private homes, the typical work after handover is that of any new flat in Seville: lamps and downlights, sockets where you really use them, a smart video entry system that opens from your phone if the development only includes a basic one, and the EV charger in the communal garage.

Subsidised homes: essentials first

In the 226 subsidised homes the budget is usually tighter. There we suggest starting with light in the rooms and any missing sockets, and leaving the extras for later. The charging conduit, if your home has a space, will be there because the Building Code requires it, so the charger can wait until you have an electric car.

Tablada is not the same

It is easy to mix them up. Tablada is a neighbourhood of the Los Remedios district, across the river, and no residential plan has been found there between 2024 and 2026: the recent Muelle de Tablada file concerns port uses, not housing. What is going to be built is on the Avenida de las Razas side.

Nearby references in the meantime

Until the neighbourhood starts, the closest new builds are in Los Bermejales and, a little further south, in Palmas Altas and Isla Natura, where new homes in the Bellavista-La Palmera district sold at 2,609 euros/m² in the third quarter of 2026. There we see how homes are handed over today, the best clue to what will arrive here. All areas are on our new-build page.
