Large house next to the Camino de Santiago in Mondoñedo

Rural house in Mondoñedo, heritage and nature in Mariña Lucense

This property is located in the vicinity of Mondoñedo, just 3 km from the historic center of this UNESCO World Heritage city. Bordered by the flowing Santa Margarida stream, whose hermitage dedicated to the same saint stands on the other side, the estate enjoys a privileged location in the heart of Mariña Lucense.

The complex sits on an estate of 0.7 hectares (1.7 acres) of green meadow that extends towards the wooded mountains characteristic of this Galician region. The property forms part of the traditional landscape that pilgrims on the Northern Camino de Santiago have contemplated for centuries, which literally runs through the vicinity of the house, as confirmed by the proximity of the Jacobean markers.

The estate includes a main house with important renovations carried out, a traditional Galician hórreo perfectly preserved with its characteristic stone columns and elevated structure, and extensive grounds that provide panoramic views of the surrounding valley.

Stone house with advanced renovation and versatile spaces

The main dwelling has 409 m² built distributed across three floors, offering multiple possibilities for use and configuration. The renovations carried out have respected the traditional structure of stone walls and original construction elements, combining them with quality contemporary finishes.

Interior spaces with renewed traditional character

The house has undergone major renovation that has modernized installations and finishes while maintaining authentic rural character. The spaces include five bedrooms and two complete bathrooms, plus three living-dining rooms that provide great versatility of use.

The restored rooms show exposed wooden beam ceilings, wood-effect porcelain floors and quality wooden carpentry. The windows with traditional green shutters provide exceptional brightness and frame privileged views of the rural landscape with meadows where cattle graze and wooded mountains in the background.

The kitchen combines traditional elements like the cast iron range cooker with wooden cabinets and functional worktops, creating a space that fuses tradition and modernity. Its large window with green shutters offers spectacular views of the natural surroundings.

The two bathrooms are completely finished, one with a bathtub and the other with a shower, both with modern tiling and complete sanitary ware including bidet.

The attic floor stands out for its impressive traditional wooden beam structure, creating an open space of great architectural beauty with multiple possibilities for development.

Exteriors with Galician heritage and panoramic views

The property's exteriors are highlighted by the perfectly preserved traditional Galician hórreo, a testament to the most authentic Galician rural architecture. Its elevated structure on stone columns and wooden framework represents one of Galicia's most emblematic heritage elements.

The extensive meadow surrounding the buildings offers multiple possibilities for use and enjoyment, with unobstructed views of the Mariña Lucense mountains and direct connection to the rural landscape that characterizes this area of Galicia.

Mondoñedo and Mariña Lucense, millennial history and Atlantic coast

The location of this property allows you to enjoy one of Spain's most beautiful villages and UNESCO World Heritage site. Mondoñedo preserves an impressive historic center with its 13th-century Basilica Cathedral, declared World Heritage along with the Northern Camino in 2015.

It's the birthplace of illustrious figures like writer Álvaro Cunqueiro and composer Pascual Veiga, author of the Galician anthem.

Mariña Lucense offers the best of Galicia: from green mountains to the finest beaches of the Cantabrian coast. The property is located 20 minutes from the coast, including the spectacular Cathedrals Beach (22 km), declared a natural monument and considered one of the world's most beautiful.
