Description of property
The Property: This is a fantastic opportunity to restore this spacious property to its former rustic charm. The property has working electricity and water in the house and could be considered semi-habitable, but does require complete restoration.
It currently has a kitchen, bathroom and a number of rooms that could be used as living spaces as they are, or reconfigured to create an open concept, or simply designed to tailor to one’s individual needs or ideas. Below there are 3 stone ground-floor cellar-type rooms which could also be converted to living space, storage or to house a central heating system.
There are also a number of outbuildings which could be converted or removed as desired.
The house and outbuildings are set on a large plot of green fields and orchard measuring nearly 4,000 m² and enclosed by a typical Galician stone wall. There are 3 accesses to the property from the main road and also via a smaller road that runs parallel in this small hamlet, situated in the pretty parish of Santiorxo in the rural outskirts of Sober.
The Location: The house is set in a small hamlet of houses in a rural area just a short distance from the village centre of Sober, which has a number of amenities and is often the location of markets, fiestas, concerts, ferias and a well-known local wine festival celebrated each year, as it is considered to be in the heart of the Ribeira Sacra.
Communications: The historic town of Monforte de Lemos, which has all the amenities and services one might require, is 20 km away (15–20 minutes by car). The canyons of the River Cabo/Sil are less than 20 minutes away, as is the village of Pantón de Ferreira. The cultural city of Ourense is just over half an hour’s drive and the spectacular coast of Galicia just 1.5 hours’ drive.
Airports:
- Santiago de Compostela: 1 hour and 35 minutes by car (133 km)
- Vigo: 1 hour and 25 minutes by car (127 km)
- A Coruña: 1 hour and 45 minutes by car (164 km)
The roads and motorways are generally very good.
