Modern Country Home with River Views | Baixo Miño | Galicia | Near Portugal & Coast

This unique countryside property is located in the lush Baixo Miño region of southern Galicia, just across the river from Portugal. It’s a perfect find through our bespoke Property Finder service — ideal for nature lovers, families, or anyone dreaming of a peaceful life with space, views, and access to both coast and countryside.

The Property: The home is arranged across two wings in an L-shape layout, offering several indoor and outdoor living spaces that are both functional and full of character. There’s a traditional stone staircase leading to the main entrance, multiple living areas, a spacious kitchen with pantry, and a bright upper-level room that can be used as a study, lounge, library, or even an extra guest space.

There are several bedrooms and bathrooms distributed across the house, offering privacy for family members or guests, and the entire home is designed with comfort and warmth in mind.

Outside, a covered terrace with river views is the perfect place to host gatherings, relax with a glass of wine, or simply take in the scenery. The views over the River Miño and Portugal are breathtaking and ever-changing with the seasons.

The Garden: The landscaped grounds are a true highlight — rich with mature fruit trees, flowering shrubs, and a curated collection of unique ornamental plants rarely found in one place. The garden is not only beautiful but practical too, with two wells, automatic irrigation, and access to community water and sanitation.

The Area: This location offers the best of both worlds: rural calm and easy access to culture, nature, and the sea. The nearby town of O Rosal is known for its walking trails, traditional water mills, and local wine. You’re close to the charming coastal village of A Guarda, with its beaches, seafood restaurants, and the hilltop archaeological site of Monte Santa Trega.

Just across the river, you can explore the Portuguese towns of Caminha and Valença – perfect for day trips, local markets, or dining out. The international bridges at Tui and Goián, and the river water taxi from A Guarda to Caminha (foot passengers and bikes), make cross-border life easy.

The beautiful historic town of Baiona is around 30 km (approx. 35 minutes) by car. The dynamic coastal city of Vigo, with its cultural attractions and busy port, is just 50 km (around 45–50 minutes) away. Vigo Airport, which offers national and some international flights, is easily reached within 50–55 minutes, making travel to and from this peaceful location surprisingly straightforward.

Why this is special: This is the kind of property we rarely come across — full of charm, with a superb setting, and offering an authentic Galician lifestyle close to both the Atlantic coast and the Portuguese border.

If you’re looking for space, views, and an ideal blend of privacy and connectivity, this is one to seriously consider.
