Hidden in a clearing of a lush forest, this 1902 stone house is a historic legacy of self-sufficiency. With 3.6 hectares (8.9 acres) of land, mill, sawmill, ancient forge and traditional ovens, this property breathes the history of a place that lived from water and land.
This property is located in the Concello de Ourol, isolated and with no neighbors in sight, in a place of extraordinary natural beauty next to the Sor river. The estate comprises 3.6 hectares (8.9 acres) of land that descends to the river, a slope that favors water circulation avoiding waterlogging.
The house is located in a natural clearing surrounded by trees that create a sensation of total isolation, where tranquility and privacy become the true luxuries of the property. The estate preserves constructions and unique elements that tell the story of a self-sufficient rural life.
The main house, built in 1902, preserves a solid structure and the authentic character of Galician rural architecture, with stone walls and slate roof. Although it requires renovation, part of the roof has been renovated.
The house is distributed over ground floor, first floor and attic. The ground floor houses original spaces such as the kitchen and stables, maintaining the functional design typical of Galician rural houses. The first floor is intended for housing, with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
The complex preserves unique heritage elements: two traditional ovens, an ancient forge, a threshing floor and a pig feeding cooker perfectly preserved, consisting of a large cauldron on a support with space to make fire. The house has two annexes, and an ancient loom located in one of the buildings next to the dwelling.
In the lower part of the estate are a mill and sawmill located next to the Sor river, fed by a small dam upstream. Although they are not currently in use, their structures remain standing.
The property includes a vast terrain of 3.6 hectares (8.9 acres) with pine and eucalyptus plantations, with a water canal built in stone that crosses the terrain. The complex is completed with a granary to restore, an iconic element of Galician rural architecture.
Ourol belongs to the Lucense Western Mariña, a region that is part of the LIC natural space of the Natura 2000 Network called 'Serra do Xistral'. The municipality is crossed by two main river basins: the Landro river and the Sor river, both belonging to the Cantabrian slope.
A few kilometers away is the spectacular Fervenza de Xestosa, one of the most important waterfalls in Galicia with more than 20 meters in height. The territory offers countless options for hiking, bathing in river areas, nature observation and total disconnection in a protected environment.
This stone house for sale represents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking tranquility and potential for self-sufficiency in a privileged natural environment, with unique heritage elements and more than a century of history.
