In a peaceful village in the Ribeira Sacra, this property brings together two stone houses, each with its own land and its own renovation needs. A large outbuilding, original features and the quiet of a traditional rural setting complete this characterful property full of possibilities.
This property is located in a small village in the municipality of Parada de Sil, around 20 km from Castro Caldelas and 19 km from Maceda, right in the Ribeira Sacra. The village is surrounded by nature, and its small population makes it a very peaceful place. Many of the surrounding houses are uninhabited, but they retain their traditional character, shaping an authentic and typically Galician rural setting.
The property is made up of two stone houses facing each other, each with its own plot of land and in different states of conservation. One of the houses is attached to a large outbuilding.
The sale includes more than 20 hectares (49.42 acres) of land at no additional cost, spread across several plots of different sizes around the village.
The property combines two traditional buildings reflecting different periods of use and conservation, offering multiple possibilities for renovation and transformation according to the new owner's needs.
The main house is the larger of the two and the one in the best state of conservation. It was inhabited until recently and, although it is habitable, it needs updating through a full renovation. The roof and outer walls, however, are in excellent condition.
The house is arranged over two floors. The ground floor houses the old cattle stalls, with a large area currently set up as a dining space for celebrations. Other stalls are used as a workshop and storage space, while the rest remain in their original state, offering great potential for renovation and transformation.
The upper floor is reached from the outside, via a staircase leading to a small gallery that serves as an entrance hall. From here you reach a large kitchen with a fireplace and wood-burning stove, a sitting room, a dining room opening onto the rear balcony, three bedrooms and a bathroom. There is also another unfinished area where two or three additional bedrooms could be created. Behind the house lies a generous plot of 6,964 m².
The other house is smaller and older, and needs a full restoration. The main entrance leads to an area once used to store farming tools, as well as former wine cellars where wine used to be made and bottled.
The living area has a traditional kitchen with a lareira (open hearth) and wood-fired oven, a space used as a woodshed and two small bedrooms.
The house is attached to a large outbuilding accessible from both inside and outside, a spacious area that still holds an old stone well.
Behind this second house lies a plot completely enclosed by a stone wall, with several access points.
Parada de Sil is a municipality located in the heart of the Ribeira Sacra, one of Galicia's most distinctive regions, a candidate for Unesco World Heritage status thanks to the beauty of its landscapes and its enormous heritage value. The territory is defined by the deep canyons carved by the Sil and Miño rivers, with terraced hillside vineyards producing wines under the Ribeira Sacra Designation of Origin.
The municipality itself is home to the Santa Cristina Monastery, of medieval origin, set beside a bend in the Sil River amid a grove of chestnut trees. Other heritage features in the area include traditional bridges and 'cruceiros' (stone crosses), as well as several 'petos de ánimas', traditional places of popular worship found throughout the municipality's parishes. The many viewpoints in the area, such as the well-known Balcones de Madrid, offer striking views over the Sil Canyon.
Around 20 km from the property, Castro Caldelas preserves a historic centre listed as a site of historic and artistic interest, overlooked by a medieval castle that today houses an ethnographic and archaeological museum. Maceda, for its part, lies 19 km away and has a medieval castle listed as a Site of Cultural Interest, one of the most representative buildings in the area.
The city of Ourense, roughly 40 km away, offers a full range of services, shops, culture and gastronomy, and is also known for its public thermal baths.
This property in Parada de Sil represents an excellent opportunity for those seeking a renovation project in an authentic natural and historic setting, with two stone houses, extensive land and the chance to personalise each space to suit their needs.
