An architectural jewel predating the discovery of America awaits you in the heart of Ribeira Sacra. This 15th-century Galician pazo, rehabilitated with exquisite taste, combines historic heritage with modern comfort: 4 bedrooms, library, unique lounges, medieval cellar and almost 3 hectares (7.41 acres) of gardens with astronomical observatory.
This extraordinary property is located in Pantón, in the heart of Ribeira Sacra Lucense, a region declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. Located just minutes from the Augas Santas Spa and Monforte de Lemos, the pazo enjoys a privileged location that combines absolute tranquility with excellent connectivity.
The architectural complex dates from 1490, predating the discovery of America, with later extensions made in 1832. For more than five centuries it has remained in the hands of the same family lineage, preserving intact its historic character and noble essence. The property covers 9,977 m² of estate that includes themed gardens, an astronomical observatory and auxiliary buildings of great heritage value.
The main pazo stands out for its exemplary rehabilitation executed in three phases, scrupulously respecting the original architecture. The granite ashlar walls, the 15th-century chestnut beams and noble materials create unique environments in each room. The distribution on two main floors optimizes each space, while the Climalit windows and double glazing guarantee thermal and acoustic comfort.
The ground floor houses a spacious master bedroom with ensuite bathroom, an oriental-style lounge decorated with ethnic textiles and period furniture, and a traditional kitchen with direct access to the garden. A stone spiral staircase leads to the upper floor, where rooms of great distinction unfold.
The upper floor features a Galician lounge presided over by a large granite fireplace with cast iron stove, a library with period carved furniture and extensive bibliographic collection, a sitting room with Balkan stove, a dining room for 8-10 people, a fully equipped kitchen that preserves a Bilbao stove connectable to heating, a full bathroom and three additional bedrooms.
The property includes a historic cellar dated 1490 with rear wall of living rock, which preserves traditional barrels and a terracotta storage system. A greenhouse currently adapted as fuel depot, which in the past supplied the family with horticultural products.
The extensive gardens are organized into different themed areas that create a private ecosystem of extraordinary beauty. The Linden Forest houses a dining table for 8 people under the natural shade of centenary trees. The Lilac Forest fills with spring color with beautiful lilacs, and includes a 'table for two' with valley views and a small camellia forest.
The hexagonal temple constitutes a place of retreat built in the middle of a laurel forest, with colored painted glass ceiling that creates unique light effects. In the rear plot there is a small star observatory fully equipped, next to a fruit tree plantation irrigated with water from the artesian well over 70 meters deep.
The Ribeira Sacra preserves the largest concentration of rural Romanesque in Europe and aspires to be declared World Heritage by UNESCO. This area of exceptional landscape value is characterized by its terraced vineyards with gradients exceeding 30%, its river canyons of the Miño and Sil, and its unique monastic heritage.
The proximity to the Augas Santas Spa and golf course allows you to enjoy thermal waters and sports activities within walking minutes. Ferreira de Pantón (5 minutes) offers all basic services, while Monforte de Lemos (17 minutes) provides a wide commercial, cultural and gastronomic offering as the capital of the region.
The heroic viticulture of the Ribeira Sacra Designation of Origin, the signposted trails through postcard landscapes, the panoramic viewpoints like Cabo do Mundo, and the Romanesque route make this environment one of the most attractive in inland Galicia.
This Galician pazo represents a unique opportunity to acquire a heritage jewel with more than 500 years of history, in an exceptional natural enclave that combines art, culture, nature and the best traditions of Galician nobility.
