Description
This property is a good example of the style of Manor houses or Pazos as they are known in Galicia, owned and lived in by a long line of members of the Royal family, and frequented by a whole number of famous writers and poets. The stone built property, mainly slate and unpolished marble, sits in large grounds all around the house itself and the nearby Romanesque (Knights Templar) church. The house oozes character and history and the property was originally owned by the Knights of Saint John in the 16th century… From the property are spectacular views over the beautiful Romanesque Church and the mountains of the Caurel nature park… The gardens immediately surrounding the house have a grand variety of established trees, many of them imported centuries ago, and the house is well secluded by them. Also on the land around the house are several barns and outhouses, an original stone washing pool and spring.
The dwelling itself comprises two floors, the ground floor being used, in its day, as servants quarters, with 4 good sized bedrooms, a kitchen, a reception room, two study rooms, wine cellars, and bathrooms. Floors are stone clad on the ground floor, except in the bedrooms where chestnut and pine have been used.
Stairs lead up to the main residence and the sense of grandeur is immediate.
A long central corridor offers bedrooms, sitting rooms and dining rooms, and a library on either side, making a total of 7 large double bedrooms, all at least 20m² (on average). A number of the bedrooms and the library lead out onto a long sunny closed gallery, which is south facing, perfect for reading and relaxing. Surrounding the property is 106.604 m² of land with unique exotic trees in the garden, a large barn, an antique washing pool with impressive rough marble pillars and several extensive pastures.
