Description

Set in a well-maintained and increasingly sought-after rural setting in the heart of the province of Pontevedra, this unique ‘Indiana’ house, dating from 1915, preserves intact the evocative beauty of an architectural style born of homecoming. It is one of those properties that transcend the strictly real estate realm to also become a testament to an era: that of those Galicians who emigrated, succeeded overseas and returned to their homeland, building houses that spoke of memory, prosperity, deep-rootedness and a desire to remain. In this house, that legacy is reflected in the grandeur of the granite, the elegance of its Modernist cast-iron gallery, the stained-glass windows, the symmetry of its balconies, and a serene atmosphere that still retains the spirit of the grand family homes of yesteryear.

The property comprises a ground floor, main floor and attic, totalling 459.97 m² of floor space on a 952 m² plot. Over the years, it has been carefully modernised, incorporating comfort and functionality without compromising its authenticity. It offers six bedrooms, two bathrooms and a toilet, as well as particularly attractive spaces such as the large multi-purpose lounge, the west-facing gallery, the sunroom opening onto the garden and a light-filled attic studio. Outside, the granite-paved courtyard with a pergola, the terraced garden with a traditional granary and stone washhouse, the greenhouse and the saltwater swimming pool reinforce the exceptional character of a rare property, with architectural merit, its own distinct identity and a charm that is hard to replicate.
