History and scenery in a 17th-century mountain mansion
Description
In the heart of Cantabria, this property opens up to the landscape as a place of calm and rootedness. Surrounded by meadows and open nature, the estate has a garden of more than 5,000 m2 that envelops the house and extends life to the outside, in a direct and serene relationship with the rural environment of Carriazo.
At its centre stands a unique 17th-century mountain house, built on commission from the clergy to house priests.
Its solid stone architecture, the balanced composition of its façade and its traditional volumes still retain the sober and secluded character typical of the religious architecture of the period. Next to it, the auxiliary buildings complete a complex that maintains the spirit of the old Cantabrian houses.
A place with memory and character, where architecture and landscape form an inseparable unity and where the renovation allows us to imagine a unique project: a house designed for gathering, sharing and living life calmly.
Layout:
The main house retains the solidity and character typical of old Cantabrian mansions. Its thick stone walls maintain a stable temperature throughout the year, while the high ceilings with exposed wooden beams and traditional floors lend authenticity and warmth to each room.
The house has four spacious bedrooms and two bathrooms, organised in a layout that reflects the simplicity and functionality of its origins, combining generous spaces with more intimate and cosy corners.
Outside, the property unfolds around a 5,000 m2 garden that surrounds the house and connects naturally with the landscape. The old stables and auxiliary buildings complete the ensemble, preserving the self-sufficient spirit of the traditional estates of the area.
A structure with memory and character, ready to be reinterpreted with respect for its essence and transformed into a contemporary home deeply connected to nature and the serene rhythm of the Cantabrian environment.

5 Stars
Carriazo is a small town in the municipality of Ribamontán al Mar, in Cantabria, known for its privileged natural environment and its proximity to some of the most highly rated beaches on the Cantabrian coast, such as Langre, Galizano and Loredo. Surrounded by meadows, rolling hills and open countryside, it retains the peaceful and authentic character of the region’s traditional villages. At the same time, its location allows visitors to enjoy both the Cantabrian Sea and the proximity to Santander, less than half an hour away, making Carriazo a particularly attractive place for those seeking nature, tranquillity and a connection with the landscape without sacrificing the services and cultural life of the Cantabrian capital.
The orientation of the house is exposed to all directions depending on the different parts of the house, the most characteristic being south and west, these two being the warmest and most sought-after in Santander, both in terms of the period of exposure to sunlight and its intensity according to the seasons of the year.
This is an authentic 17th-century mountain house, originally linked to the clergy, which preserves many of the elements that define Cantabrian rural architecture: thick stone walls, sober volumes and a solid and serene presence in the territory. All this unfolds on a 5,000 m² estate surrounded by meadows, where the house, the old stables and the auxiliary buildings form a complex with its own identity. A place where memory, landscape and architecture come together, offering an exceptional opportunity to reinterpret a historical piece and turn it into a unique home in the heart of Cantabrian nature.
The buildings are in good condition, especially structurally and in terms of the stone walls, although they will need extensive renovation work to bring them up to the standards of the person who purchases them.
This exclusive property is a safe investment, given the limited supply of this type of property. Purchasing a house in this location means acquiring a secure real estate asset that is not subject to the general market fluctuations that can affect other areas. It is undoubtedly a safe and sustainable investment.
