Farm with 3.7 hectares of land in Abegondo

Historic house next to the English Way of St. James in Abegondo

This historic property is located just 300 metres from the English Way of St. James in Abegondo, A Coruña. Situated in the heart of the As Mariñas dos Frades region, the 3.7-hectare (9.14-acre) estate embraces a stone house from 1874 with three traditional hórreos, alpendre and multiple auxiliary buildings.

The privileged location places the property just 4 km from Abegondo town centre, with access to health centre, pharmacies, shops and daily public transport to A Coruña. The bus stop is 200 metres away connecting with the Coruña capital.

This ensemble forms part of the Biosphere Reserve 'Mariñas Coruñesas e Terras do Mandeo', a territory that recognises the products and services of this privileged area of Galicia.

Authentic rural heritage with unique elements

The main stone house preserves the original exterior walls from 1874, maintaining all the authenticity of Galician rural architecture. Distributed over two floors, the construction houses exceptional historic elements such as a traditional lareira, wood oven, stone chimney and artisan well with working motor.

Ground floor: versatile spaces

The ground floor, formerly used for livestock farming, features a large open-plan space that runs the full length of the house. This floor also includes a kitchen equipped for artisan cheese production with professional refrigeration chambers, a bathroom, a small cellar where the cold tank for milk preservation was located, and a stone lounge with original walls.

Upper floor: rooms with renovation potential

The upper floor has three bedrooms and a large lounge with original wooden beam structure. Although the floor requires renovation, the structure is in perfect condition and offers multiple rehabilitation possibilities according to the new owner's needs.

Traditional buildings that enrich the ensemble

The ensemble includes a high-ceiling alpendre with enormous potential for use, a garage, and three traditional Galician hórreos. One of these hórreos dates from the same period as the house (1874), becoming a heritage piece of exceptional value with its characteristic stone columns and elevated structure.

The property has mains electricity and free municipal water supply, guaranteeing basic services for any rehabilitation project.

Abegondo and the English Way: history, nature and connectivity

Abegondo, whose name comes from the Visigothic 'abe' (water) and 'gondo' (land), forms part of a region rich in cultural and historic heritage. The area stands out for monuments such as the Torres de San Tirso de Mabegondo, the Pazo de Figueroa where Philip II stayed, and the famous cruceiros de Abegondo.

The English Way of St. James, which passes just metres from the property, historically connects the ports of A Coruña and Ferrol with Santiago de Compostela. This Jacobean route was travelled for centuries by pilgrims from England, Ireland and northern Europe, making the area a place of unique cultural confluence.

The proximity to the Abegondo-Cecebre reservoir, declared a Site of Community Importance within the Natura 2000 Network, offers an exceptional natural environment for migratory bird watching and enjoying hiking routes along the Mero, Barcés and Gobia rivers.

The excellent connectivity places the property 25 km from A Coruña, 30 km from Santiago de Compostela and its international airport and 35 km from Alvedro airport, combining rural tranquillity with access to Galicia's main urban centres and services.

This historic house represents a unique opportunity to develop an authentic rural project, surrounded by Jacobean history, traditional heritage and the natural beauty of the Mariñas Coruñesas.
