Farmhouse to renovate with 1.8 hectares in Saviñao

Rural estate in Saviñao, historic legacy in the heart of Ribeira Sacra

This property is located in a small village in Saviñao, south of Lugo province, in a rural environment hidden in the heart of Ribeira Sacra. The estate comprises 18,448 m² of land (4.56 acres), divided into two large plots connected by a small path that gives access to a public fountain.

The landscape surrounding this property is typically Galician, with single-family village houses, gardens, native forests and the characteristic mountainous landscape of the area. The main house was once the most outstanding of the entire village, being an important farmhouse that today retains all its original character.

A Galician farmhouse with singular layout

The main building is a large stone house with a square shape that articulates its spaces around an interior courtyard that functions as the heart of the dwelling. The structure of the house forms a U, occupying three sides of the square, while the fourth side is completed by the old caretakers' house. The entire complex needs comprehensive renovation.

Spaces to restore full of history and traditional character

The house is distributed over two floors connected by a stone staircase that ascends from the central courtyard. The ground floor houses the old stables and several spaces intended for storing tools, as well as a traditional cellar. These spaces, currently disused, offer multiple possibilities for transformation into habitable areas after renovation.

The upper floor stands out for its wooden gallery that surrounds the interior courtyard, providing a unique space full of character. The floor includes 4 bedrooms, although only one is large, the other three being small alcoves. It also has a bathroom, a kitchen equipped with traditional wood stove and access to the rear meadow, and a large living-dining room with an impressive wooden beam ceiling.

Land with auxiliary buildings that expand possibilities

In the first plot is the main house, along with a stone shed that preserves a traditional wood oven. It comprises a total of 4,293 m² of land (1.06 acres) that extends behind the dwelling, completely enclosed by a stone wall.

The second plot is the largest, and in its extension houses a large stone shed to be rehabilitated, a small house in ruins that invites imagining different restoration options and a hórreo. Additionally, this plot hides an abundant water spring that supplies the property.
