Layout:

The house stands on a 4,327 m² plot, elevated above the valley in a position that invites you to contemplate the surrounding landscape.

With 474 m² built across two floors and a lower level, this property blends contemporary architecture, functionality, and a constant connection with nature.

Access to the estate is through an automated designer gate that sets the tone for the understated elegance of the entire property.

The main entrance, marked by a reinforced pivot door, establishes the atmosphere of the interior: security, character, and meticulous attention to detail.

A welcoming porch leads into the spacious, high-ceilinged living room, centered around a fireplace and opening onto the main porch and garden.

The kitchen, designed by Santos and equipped with Siemens appliances, is arranged around a central island and has direct access to the pantry and laundry room —a perfect fusion of aesthetics and functionality.

On this same floor are a guest toilet and three en-suite bedrooms: one for guests and the main suite, both featuring walk-in closets and direct access to the outdoors.

Upstairs, an open library serves as a landing and leads to another bedroom and dressing area, one of which opens onto a balcony overlooking the landscape —framing nature as part of daily life.

The lower level surprises with its industrial-inspired aesthetic: a spacious wine cellar with a home cinema, ping-pong area, bar with refrigerator and dishwasher, guest toilet, and utility room. A warm, versatile, and characterful space designed for year-round enjoyment.

Outdoors, the landscaped garden unfolds around the main porch, where a swimming pool extends naturally from the living room.

The property is completed by an independent garage for two vehicles, equipped with an electric charger and storage room, as well as paved access, ambient lighting, and an automated irrigation system connected to AEMET.

Located in the center of Mazcuerras —one of the most beautiful villages in Cantabria, declared a “Pueblo Bonito” in 2008— La Cuesta de la Fuente enjoys a privileged setting: elevated, sunny, and with open views. Just steps from the main square and the traditional bowling green, it allows you to experience the essence of village life while enjoying the privacy and comfort of a modern home surrounded by nature. Mazcuerras is part of Cantabria’s Western Coast, just 45 kilometers from Santander. Unlike the eastern part of the region, western Cantabria has been spared from mass construction due to the late completion of the Cantabrian Highway in the 21st century. As a result, the area has preserved its authenticity and exclusivity, becoming a desirable residential enclave of grand country houses —close to the beaches, the Oyambre Natural Park, the Saja-Besaya Natural Park, and Monte Corona— with all essential services just a few kilometers away. Nearby are several prestigious golf courses: the Real Golf de Pedreña (40 km away), the historic Real Golf de Oyambre —one of the oldest in Spain— and the Santa Marina Golf Club, designed by Severiano Ballesteros. The Santander Airport is only 30–40 km away, and the Marqués de Valdecilla Hospital is a 30-minute drive. Historically, Mazcuerras was known as Malacoria, located along the Ruta de los Foramontanos, followed by the early settlers of Castile during the Reconquest. It was named Village of Cantabria 2008 for its historical, cultural, and environmental value. Known as “The Village of Manor Houses” for its rich architectural heritage and as “Luzmela” due to its literary significance —it was the setting of “La niña de Luzmela”, one of the most beloved novels by the writer Concha Espina, who lived here— Mazcuerras is also affectionately called “The Village of Flowers” thanks to its long-standing tradition of cultivating flowers, plants, and trees that adorn its public spaces and building façades. The renowned Viveros Escalante, with more than a century of history and 20 hectares spread throughout the village, are closely tied to the design and care of its spectacular gardens.

The elevated position, expansive windows, and southwest orientation allow the property to receive natural light throughout the day. The large panoramic windows frame views of the valley and the mountains, bringing warmth and brightness to every room.

A home with Cantabrian soul, reinterpreted through contemporary elegance. Its elevated position, surrounded by greenery and silence, gives it both a serene and powerful presence. The architecture blends natural stone, wood, and lime with impeccable artisanal execution. The interior opens effortlessly to the exterior: large windows flood the spaces with light and extend daily life toward the porch, where the pool’s water mirrors the sky and the house itself. The wine cellar, with its industrial aesthetic, adds character and sophistication, offering a space for leisure, wine tasting, or home cinema. High ceilings, en-suite bedrooms with walk-in closets, and full home automation create a sense of absolute comfort. The house responds to nature —light, temperature, and irrigation adjust automatically to the climate— allowing the home to live in perfect harmony with its surroundings.

Newly built, completed, and ready to move into, this home has been constructed to the highest standards of energy efficiency and comfort. Entry to the house is through a designer reinforced pivot door, while the property itself features a motorized gate integrated into the stone enclosure. It is equipped with an aerothermal system with underfloor heating and cooling, triple-glazed windows, lime-rendered façades combined with natural stone, and a fully integrated Jung Home automation system that allows control of lighting, climate, blinds, and shades directly from your mobile device. The automated irrigation system, connected to AEMET, adjusts its operation based on weather forecasts. The property is delivered fully furnished, with bespoke interior design in which every piece has been thoughtfully curated to complement the architecture. The result is an intelligent, sustainable, and tranquil home that offers a warm, balanced, and refined living experience.

A unique property in Cantabria’s high-end real estate market. Its privileged location, refined architecture, and combination of technology, sustainability, and timeless design ensure lasting value and excellent potential for luxury resale or rental. A secure real estate asset in the green heart of Cantabria.
