Flat for sale in Lekeitio, Vizcaya

This unique home of 214 m2, with the possibility of splitting it into an apartment and a floor, is located right in the heart of the town of Lekeitio (a privileged location next to the mouth of the Lea River). It is a Biscayan town halfway between Bilbao and San Sebastián.

It is located opposite the Town Hall and near the Basilica of the Assumption of Our Lady, in Flamboyant Gothic style. In scarcely 2 minutes you reach the colorful fishing port, packed with bars, and Isuntza Beach. It connects to a splendid promenade along Karraspio Beach (Mendexa). In 10 minutes by car, we can reach the famous Ogeia Beach (Ispaster), with sand and rock.

It is situated opposite Garraitz Island, formerly called San Nicolás. One of the reasons why Lekeitio is so special is that, as the tide rises or falls, its landscape changes in a fascinating way: a beach appears and disappears as if by magic, and it connects the Villa on foot with the island. The archaeological richness of Garraitz has meant that, in 2019, the island was declared an archaeological park. It is the only one there is currently in the Basque Country.

This beautiful and distinctive apartment, located on the second floor of the residential-palace built in the 19th century, is designated as number 42 in the monumental complex of the Historic Quarter of Lekeitio and is classified as protected heritage, with the benefits that this entails. It has been fully renovated, as has the entire building.

It has a magnificent main entrance from Uribarren Street and a second private access via Gamarra Street. The building has an elevator, oak staircases, a mahogany balustrade, and a spectacular vault.

The home has been renovated using top-quality materials, such as fine chestnut, Guinea and French pine woods, for the floors, shutters, built-in wardrobes, doors, skirting boards, and the bay window; in addition, marble for the bathrooms. The ceiling height is over 4 meters, allowing two of the 4 bedrooms to have double-height ceilings. The master bedroom has an iron-forged fireplace and an en-suite bathroom with a concealed entrance from one of the doors of the wardrobe. This bathroom is enormous, bright, and complete. There is a second, spacious interior bathroom.

The apartment has a very good layout. The day area is separated from the night area by a large and spectacular vestibule. The former includes two dining rooms, a large kitchen, a laundry area, and a large bay window with views toward Gamarra Street. The rest area, besides the 4 bedrooms and the two bathrooms described above, also includes a large living room with a lovely decorated ceiling, another French-style fireplace, and balconies with views of the sea.

The entire home is exterior except for one bathroom; it has 7 balconies on the building façade, with cast-iron railings.

Spectacular views of the Cantabrian Sea.

A home full of charm, exceptional, and uncommon.
