Unearthed through our Property Finder work — a rare mix of setting, history, and substance just inland from the Rías Baixas.
Ten minutes from the coast, in the quiet inland parish of Borreiros, this former priest’s house offers space, privacy, and a strong sense of place. Built in 1898 and restored in the 1990s, the house keeps its original stone walls, woodwork, and layout — practical, solid, and full of character.
Set on over 11,000 m² of land, the property sits above the valley with views of the Serra da Groba and the sea in the distance. The climate here is mild year-round — warm summers, green winters, and good growing conditions. You’re close to the beaches of Baiona and Playa América, but out of the tourist zones.
The main house has four bedrooms, including one en-suite, and a comfortable living space with fireplace, kitchen-dining area, and access to a sheltered inner patio. Upstairs, two of the bedrooms have balconies with views. Outside, you will find:
A bodega with old press and barbecue
Two traditional hórreos
A private 10 × 5 m pool, fenced and surrounded by trees
Covered dining and seating areas
A chapel, still intact
Old stone paths, shady corners, and mature oaks
These elements reflect the property’s past as a working and communal home — not just a residence, but part of village life.
You’re in the Val Miñor, with good services, schools, and easy access to both the coast and Vigo. Vigo Airport is 30 minutes away, and Porto Airport is around 1 hour and 40 minutes by car — a good option for international travel.
Why we love it
It’s rare to find a rural Galician property with this much land and history so close to the sea. The house is ready to live in, the grounds are generous, and the setting offers a balance of peace and connection. There’s enough here to enjoy as it is — and enough to develop, if you choose.
