Fantastic vineyard house with swimming pool, St James Road, Ribeira Sacra

In an incredibly beautiful countryside, you have a 600m2 house dated back from the XV century and renovated by its owner, a renowned Galician landscape architect, maintaining the traditional Galician style. Inside the house there is plenty of space to enjoy being together in the common areas. As common areas, you have a large (96 m2) living/dining room with a fireplace; a smaller living room (56m2) with a central fire place; a covered traditional veranda facing the vineyard; and a big semi covered central patio/courtyard (98m2) where you can enjoy your meals and the long summer evenings. In the first floor, there are 3 good size double bedrooms with their own bathrooms plus the master bedroom, bathroom and own living room/studio in the tower. One of the bedrooms has an ensuite bedroom with 3 single beds and another room can accommodate an extra single bed. In the ground floor, there is a big kitchen with a fire place and dining table for 10. The 5th bedroom with its own bathroom and studio is also placed in the ground floor with windows to the central courtyard. The ground floor has a billiard room and table football. BBQ in the patio. The house is perfect for a holiday all year around with thick stone walls that keep it fresh in summer and a good heating system to enjoy the winter months.

The property includes a beautiful garden with chestnuts and fruit trees, an ecological vegetable garden and a 25,000m2 vineyard. There are several outdoor eating and relaxing places, and a 9x4 m saltwater swimming pool. The vineyard produces its own wine in the bodega placed in the property. We can arrange for wine tasting in local wineries (bodegas) of the Ribeira Sacra wines.

Separated from the main house is the “caseros” (housekeeper) house. Ana and her family live there. Ana takes care of the garden and the animals (sheeps and hens) and can provide cooking and extra cleaning on request. They can also provide any information you may require about the area and services. The "caseros" house is totally independent and out of site of the main house.

The house is situated 2 kms from a small village with a restaurant and a small shop, 2 kms from a golf club and Spa (https://www.ocahotels.com/en/hotels/hotel-oca-augas-santas-spa-golf), 4 kms from a small town with all services and several restaurants (Ferreira de Panton) and 10kms from Monforte de Lemos, capital of the Ribeira Sacra. Ribeira Sacra is known for its wines and Romanesque churches. A fantastic area for wine tasting, hiking and visiting amazing monasteries from middle age around the river Sil.
