The Property :
This magnificent estate features a collection of charming stone houses nestled within beautifully manicured gardens, an orchard abundant with various fruit trees, including mature avocado trees, and sprawling pastures with wooded areas. The 9,000 m² plot offers open views of a verdant valley and presents a unique opportunity, as most of the land is buildable, offering endless potential for development.
The main residence is a partially restored, spacious house with two separate entrances. One entrance leads to an open terrace, surrounded by a meticulously landscaped gardens. This terrace also connects to a cosy stone cottage with an open-plan kitchen and lounge area, complete with a wood burner. A second, secluded entrance from the cottage opens to a private walled patio, which includes a stairway to the main house and access to a stone barn, offering potential for additional independent living space.
The houses require some updates and maintenance, but feature spacious, light-filled rooms with large windows that frame breathtaking views of the surrounding nature.
The Location:
Situated on the edge of a tranquil hamlet, this property enjoys a serene and sun-drenched setting with expansive views of the green hills and valleys. Located in the quaint village of Villaza in Gondomar, on the border with Nigrán, this area is highly sought after in the Val Miñor region.
Gondomar has recently undergone development, now featuring a pedestrianized town centre with essential services and amenities. The village boasts a charming town square perfect for enjoying tapas and traditional octopus, overlooked by a historic church. Families will appreciate the proximity to several schools, including an International and a British school, with a bus service throughout Val Miñor.
The village offers a wide range of facilities, including a park with a river walk, cycling paths, sports centres, football pitches, a medical clinic, a music conservatory, and more. Gondomar is also known for its vibrant festivals and live concerts throughout the year. Despite its proximity to the coast, it remains peaceful during the summer, unlike the more tourist-heavy villages of Nigrán and Baiona.
The Val Miñor enjoys a favourable microclimate, making it one of Galicia’s best weather spots, perfect for year-round visits to nearby beaches like Playa America and Patos, which are ideal for surfing and water sports. The historic fishing village of Baiona is also nearby, known for its chic shops and restaurants serving excellent tapas, seafood, and traditional Galician cuisine.
The property offers easy access to the motorway, just 2on minutes away, with the vibrant city of Vigo only 15-20 minutes’ drive. Gondomar is conveniently served by three airports—Vigo, Porto, and Santiago de Compostela—all within 20 minutes to 1 hour 20 minutes by car.
