Stone house to restore in the heart of nature in Outeiro de Rei

Rustic house in Outeiro de Rei, a natural retreat with excellent connections

This property is located in a parish belonging to the municipality of Outeiro de Rei. Its location combines an unusual sense of seclusion and privacy with highly practical connectivity: just 6 km from Rábade, 9 km from Outeiro de Rei and 20 km from the city of Lugo.

The road and the surrounding vegetation act as a natural barrier between the property and the nearest houses, located some 300 metres away but hidden behind the trees. The forests embracing the house reinforce that sense of retreat and direct contact with nature.

The plot, of over 4,000 m², is completely flat — an uncommon feature in this type of rural setting. The property includes a two-storey stone house to restore, a barn and a small lean-to with a traditional wood-fired oven.

A stone house full of character and layout possibilities

The main dwelling is a two-storey rustic stone house with a slate roof and chimney, whose exterior structure is in good condition. The rubblestone walls, the granite masonry details and the overall façade convey the unmistakable character of traditional Galician rural architecture.

The interior requires a full restoration, giving the buyer complete freedom to design a home tailored to their needs and explore new layout options.

The ground floor houses a kitchen, a bathroom and several rooms that originally served as stables, which could today be converted into a garage, storage areas or even additional living space. The upper floor has a living-dining room and two bedrooms, though a redistribution of the space would allow for a greater number of bedrooms.

Barn, wood-fired oven and land: a property with a great deal to offer

Attached to the house, the barn is a large structure with two access points: one leading to the outside of the property and another towards the interior of the plot. Its size and solid walls make it a space with multiple conversion possibilities.

On the other side, next to the main entrance of the house, there is a small lean-to with a traditional wood-fired oven, a typical feature of the Galician countryside that adds value and authenticity to the ensemble.

The plot, of over 4,000 m² and completely flat, extends behind the buildings, bordered by the road on one side and stretching towards the forest on the other. Its regular surface and lack of slope make it a particularly practical piece of land.

Outeiro de Rei and Candai, living history in the heart of the Terra Chá

Outeiro de Rei is a municipality within the comarca of Lugo, located just 13 km from the provincial capital and very close to Rábade, which is only 6 km from the property. Rábade offers all the everyday services one might need, from a health centre and schools to supermarkets and shops — particularly convenient for those seeking the peace of the countryside without giving up urban amenities.

The area is crossed by the River Miño, which provides an exceptional natural setting with hiking trails, river beaches and places of great beauty such as the Ínsuas do Miño or the Salto do Piago, along which the Camiño do Miño winds for 18 km through forests of oak, chestnut and ash trees.

The Área Recreativa de Santa Isabel, at the confluence of the River Ladra and the Miño, is another popular outdoor destination, as are Penas de Rodas, home to one of the most remarkable granite formations in all of Galicia.

The proximity to Lugo, just 20 km from the property, gives easy access to a city with a rich cultural, gastronomic and service offering. Lugo has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its Roman walls and boasts a millennia-old heritage well worth exploring.

This stone house to restore in Outeiro de Rei represents a unique opportunity for those looking to restore an authentic property in Galicia, set in an almost private natural environment with excellent connections.
