17th-century rural inn with character and great potential

Description

17th-century rural inn set on a magnificent plot of almost 1.5 hectares, where traditional architecture, a mature garden and the natural surroundings come together to create a property of exceptional character and great potential.

The house preserves original features of great value, enhancing its authenticity and personality. The high ceilings of the main house and the exposed oak structure bring a sense of space, warmth and a very special architectural presence. This is a property with soul, designed to be enjoyed at a slower pace and in constant connection with the outdoors.

The mature garden is one of the estate’s main highlights. It features magnificent trees and carefully maintained vegetation, with a wide variety of ornamental plants, creating a green, private and charming setting. The plot also includes a swimming pool and a tennis court, reinforcing the property’s leisure and family-oriented character.

The generous size of the plot, the privacy of the setting and the scale of its outdoor spaces make this estate ideal both for a large family and for the development of an outstanding rural hotel project.

Layout:

The property consists of two independent buildings: the main house and a second dwelling, originally intended for the caretakers. This configuration gives the estate great versatility, allowing family living to be combined with guest areas, staff accommodation or even a potential use linked to rural hospitality.

The main house features two kitchens, eight bedrooms, four bathrooms, three living rooms and three original fireplaces, all in perfect working order. The generous proportions of its rooms, the presence of several living areas and the character of its traditional features reinforce the feeling of a well-loved, solid home with history.

In addition, the house includes auxiliary spaces that complete its day-to-day functionality, such as a storage room, pantry and a pilgrim’s room, particularly in keeping with the setting and the rural character of the property.

The second house, the former caretakers’ dwelling, functions as an independent unit within the estate. It is distributed into a living-dining room, a fully equipped kitchen, three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of them particularly spacious. It is an ideal space for guests, family, support staff or as complementary accommodation in the event of developing a rural hotel or guest house project.

The result is a spacious, flexible and highly complete estate, with two distinct homes that allow for different uses without compromising privacy or comfort. A property designed to welcome, share and enjoy both the interiors and the magnificent garden that surrounds it.

Located in Mortera, a peaceful residential village in the municipality of Piélagos, this property enjoys a green and serene setting, very close to Santander and some of the most sought-after beaches on the Cantabrian coast. Its location combines the privacy and slower pace of a rural enclave with the convenience of nearby services, transport links and urban centres, making it a particularly attractive option for those seeking nature, space and quality of life without giving up easy access to the city and the sea.

The south-facing orientation of the house and garden ensures a particularly bright, comfortable and sunny home for much of the day.

This 17th-century rural inn retains an authentic presence, but what truly makes it special is the way the house connects with the estate: almost 1.5 hectares of mature gardens, magnificent trees, ornamental vegetation, a swimming pool and a tennis court create a private, serene setting full of possibilities. The presence of two independent dwellings further enhances its versatility, allowing it to be imagined either as a large family home or as a rural hotel project with character, soul and a deep connection to the landscape.

The property is in perfect condition, and the restoration was carried out with great care to create a very pleasant place for guests to enjoy. The renovation included the careful incorporation of reconstructed elements from the original structure into the more modern areas, particularly at a structural level and in the ashlar stone walls. However, the interior décor could benefit from an update, allowing the new owner to adapt it to their own taste.

This exclusive property represents a secure investment, given the limited availability of this type of asset. Acquiring a house in this location means owning a safe real estate asset that is not subject to the general market fluctuations that may affect other areas. It is, without doubt, a secure and sustainable long-term value.
