Description of property
This property came to us through our network. Santaballa sits five minutes from the market town of Vilalba, in the inland hills of Lugo province. The landscape is green and unhurried. The climate is genuinely Atlantic, cool and wet in winter, pleasantly warm in summer with fresh nights.
Vilalba has everything needed for daily life. Shops, services, a weekly market, healthcare, and a community that has not been shaped by tourism. Lugo city is forty minutes away. A Coruña and its international airport are fifty-five minutes. Santiago de Compostela is just over an hour.
The House
A traditional Galician stone farmhouse with thick walls and original features throughout. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large fully equipped kitchen, and a living and dining room with a fireplace that earns its place in a Lugo winter.
Outside there is an established vegetable garden and a greenhouse ready for serious growing. The surrounding land of around 12,000m² is available as part of the rental, whether for growing, keeping animals or simply having space. The stables are in good condition. Pets are welcome.
The monthly rent is €950, excluding utility bills. Two months refundable deposit required, plus the first month’s rent in advance and proof of income.
A Base to Get to Know Galicia
This kind of property works well as a first base, somewhere to arrive properly, get your bearings, and understand the region before deciding where you want to settle long term. The land, the stables, the garden and the space make it possible to start living a different kind of life from day one.
The practical steps of getting established are straightforward from here. NIE appointments and residency registration are available at the Policía Nacional in both Lugo, forty minutes away, and Viveiro, approximately forty-five minutes. We can guide you through the full sequence and support you with everything needed to get properly settled, from the first appointment to the moment Galicia starts to feel like home.
