Townhouse for sale in Villaviciosa, Asturias

This is the Sorribas Estate, a unique patrimonial complex in the Principality of Asturias for its historical, cultural, and architectural value. Just five minutes from downtown Villaviciosa, yet in the heart of nature, this singular property belonged to the Valdés family, holders of the marquessate of the Royal Transport.

The complex includes a 17th-century palace house with documented origins dating back to 1383, a chapel dedicated to Saint Mary Magdalene, medieval defensive towers, gatehouses, walls, dovecotes, paths, and an ancient forest traversed by a river and several bridges. All of this is distributed on ten plots totaling 24 hectares, almost entirely fenced by an 19th-century wall.
Highlighted elements of the estate:

Palace house (17th c.): Rectangular in plan, with two stories and a four-water roof. It preserves furniture from the 18th to the 20th centuries and an archival record that begins in 1581. The heraldic shields of the family are displayed on its façade.

Chapel: Square in plan, with a portico on columns, a star vault, and shields on its façade. Its origin could also date back to the 14th century.

Towers and gatehouse (14th c.): From the ancient medieval wall of Villaviciosa, they were moved to the grounds in the 20th century. They currently constitute the main access to the complex.

Private forest (more than 6 ha): Preserved for centuries by the family, includes a natural waterfall, five bridges from different eras, paths, and remnants of an 18th-century water mill.

This property, of enormous historical and natural value, represents a living testimony of Asturian rural nobility and offers multiple possibilities for its preservation, residential use, or institutional or high-end tourist destination.
