Historic manor house ideal for a rural hotel project with its own charm and style
Description
At the top of the district of Mogrovejo, in the heart of the Liébana region and under the majestic gaze of the Western Picos de Europa, stands this extraordinary 13th century manor house. A unique property that preserves intact the character and authenticity of its period, surrounded by a landscape that seems to be frozen in time.
The main floor of the house has stone floors in a large, non-homogeneous format, bringing texture and authenticity to each room. On the upper floors, the spacious lounges with original fireplaces evoke the warmth of times gone by, enhanced by elegant solid oak plank flooring, laid in varying lengths to reinforce its handcrafted beauty.
The garden is made up of native trees and a careful selection of ornamental plants that change with the seasons.
The midday orientation of the house guarantees a privileged luminosity all year round, making it a particularly welcoming space.
This is a truly unique property. Not only for its historical and architectural legacy, but also for the natural environment that surrounds it, with views of a beauty that is difficult to match. An ideal place as a family residence or as an exclusive rural hotel with history and character.
Layout:
This complex consists of four buildings:
The tower is presented in its pure state: a stone envelope with no interior layout, crowned by a roof that preserves its original character. A blank space with infinite possibilities.
Attached to the tower is the old caretakers’ house, also without layout, whose structure remains solid with walls in perfect condition and a roof made up of sturdy oak beams and traditional tiles. A jewel in the rough to be transformed into a cosy annexe or guest house, while maintaining the soul of the place.
The main house is undoubtedly the heart of the complex. A building of great amplitude that houses three integrated dwellings, highlighting a main residence distributed in two heights. It has a kitchen, eight bedrooms, four bathrooms, three living rooms with two functional fireplaces that provide warmth and character, as well as a storage room, pantry, a historic room known as the pilgrim’s room and a large covered ground floor. The house is enriched by a private chapel, which retains its original altar and altarpiece, adding an absolutely unique spiritual and heritage component.
A short distance away are the stables and the old barn, independent constructions which, although in need of renovation, maintain their original roofs and stone walls intact.
Spaces with great potential to support new uses such as workshops, creative spaces or complementary accommodation.

Mogrovejo, situated in an idyllic location and surrounded by extraordinary forests of oak, holly and chestnut trees. It is also the starting point for several very accessible and beautiful routes in the region of the Western Picos de Europa Torre de Mogrovejo with the massif of Andara or the Eastern Massif of Picos de Europa.
The orientation of the house is exposed to all the orientations according to the different parts of the house, the most characteristic being the midday and west orientation, being these two the warmest and most sought after in Santander, both for the period of light exposure and its intensity according to the seasons of the year.
This property is unique in its style among the so-called Casas Solariegas of Cantabria due to its location and its structure, which can be adapted to any of the needs of a large family or a rural hotel. Within the complex is the Torre de Mogrovejo, a 13th century medieval watchtower.
The conservation of the buildings is correct due to the amount of time they have been standing on their backs but, above all at the structural level and ashlar walls, but the buildings are in need of a total rehabilitation, achieving a very singular product.
This exclusive property is a safe investment, due to the scarcity of this type of property on offer. Buying a house in this location means having a secure real estate asset that does not suffer from the general market fluctuations that can affect other areas. It is undoubtedly a safe and sustainable value.
