Three stone buildings in Serra do Courel

Rural complex in A Pobra do Brollón: stone, tradition and exceptional views

This unique property is located in the village of Parada dos Montes, just 15 km from A Pobra do Brollón and 25 km from Monforte de Lemos. Situated in the heart of Serra do Courel, the property sits on the mountainside offering unbeatable views of the valley that stretches between the peaks.

The village preserves the traditional aesthetics of Galician mountain villages and, due to its orientation and topography, it is a very sunny location. The properties are located in the lower part of the village, being the last buildings before the terrain opens completely to the valley. This privileged position makes them the best situated in the entire village, both for solar exposure and for the panoramic views that extend without obstacles.

Traditional rural architecture distributed across three plots

The complex consists of three independent but adjacent properties, with different characteristics: a house ready to move into, a building to rehabilitate and a traditional barn with vegetable garden.

The main house, mountain refuge ready to inhabit

The main dwelling is ready to move into and distributes its spaces over two floors that combine original architecture with current renovations. The ground floor houses a spacious hallway, a large empty room and a technical room where the heating boilers are located with diesel, wood and pellet options.

The upper floor welcomes us with an open-plan area presided over by a traditional wood-burning kitchen that acts as a central element, separating the space between the living area and a renovated kitchen-dining room. This area features a large window with landscape views that floods the space with natural light. The rest area includes two small bedrooms and one larger bedroom, plus a complete bathroom. Access to a low-height under-roof space provides additional storage space.

Two additional buildings with transformation potential

The second property is located right next to the main house, and is a two-storey stone building that offers multiple possibilities for development. Its upper floor has a front open to the valley providing excellent views, while at the front it has a small enclosed plot ideal for creating an outdoor terrace. This building has perfect potential to become an independent apartment.

At the opposite corner of the road is the third property, a traditional barn with two floors that was used as a drying place for chestnuts, cereals and meat products. The building preserves its stone masonry walls and exposed wooden beams, with a small vegetable garden at the rear that completes the possibilities of this small estate.

Buying a house in Serra do Courel, protected nature and authentic rural tradition

Serra do Courel is part of the Montañas do Courel Geopark, declared a UNESCO World Geopark, where unique geological formations and landscapes of extraordinary natural value are preserved. This area, rich in native forests of oaks, chestnuts and birches, hides Roman gold mines and traditional villages that speak of the past of these lands. The region stands out for its hiking routes that traverse postcard landscapes, such as the Ruta de los Teixedais or the trails that lead to natural viewpoints with mountain views.

The location of Parada dos Montes allows easy access to A Pobra do Brollón (15 km) and Monforte de Lemos (25 km), towns that provide all necessary services. Monforte de Lemos, with its historic center and its National Parador, connects this mountainous area with the main Galician communication routes.

This stone house in Serra do Courel offers an exceptional opportunity to develop a rural life project in the mountains, with extensive possibilities for customization and transformation, in a unique natural environment that keeps alive the authenticity of the Galician mountains.
