Water mill with two levels of space, a sizeable private plot measuring a total of 5,645 m², surrounded by woodland and with a southerly aspect, a lovely garden section and adjoining the weir.

The property is a historic functional water mill in a magnificent setting in a small parish in A Coruña, surrounded by woodland and with a sunny aspect.

Upon arrival at the property, you enter a charming courtyard with two original decorative fountains, and the villa can be found on the right on a slight downward slope. The villa is set back from the river about 25 metres, with a traditional mill cubo which can be filled for a variety of uses including powering the mill works; in front, there is a lovely garden area, which is currently used for outdoor dining.

Towards the right side of the villa is where we find more garden space, land and woodland, including many mature trees, shrubs and a fruit trees including figs and apples. Beyond the land attached to the mill, across the river you are surrounded by a verdant and protected woodland.

Once inside, we find the entrance hall, which leads us to the various rooms on the main ground floor, and features the main staircase leading upstairs to the primary sleeping quarters. The property was renovated by the current owners, maintaining the critical aspects in great detail, and you will immediately notice the floor to ceiling windows overlooking the private gardens which slope down to the river itself. Immediately in front as you enter from the courtyard is a lovely galleria with views and access to the front garden. The industrial strength glass floors in the galleria showcase the water channel that passes underneath, which is lit from beneath. The mill works are all still functional, you can open and close the aperture to control the water passing through the channel.

In the left wing, there is a charming small sitting area overlooking the courtyard fountain area, and benefitting from a traditional Galician stone oven, historically where bread was baked. Past this we find the open-plan living and dining room area, with a large stone fireplace, exposed chestnut beams, high ceilings with exposed wood paneling. This leads through to the split level kitchen area, newly installed, with a centre island, good appliances and a breakfast bar. Exposed original stone walls feature throughout. Adjacent to the kitchen, we find the historic machinery for the mill works, including three millstones.

To the right as you enter from the courtyard, we have a guest toilet, a utility room and a disabled access ensuite bedroom. This flows through to a sitting area, which benefits from floor to ceiling windows overlooking the private garden and the river. This room has a door that leads to the outdoor garden, and a secondary staircase that leads to one of the en suite bedrooms on the first floor and through to a generously sized room currently used as an at home gym.

On the first floor, off the main staircase we find the primary sleeping areas. The first floor has a total of five bedrooms, three en suite, and a further two share the grand master bath, walk-in closet and an additional WC.

The house was updated with a sympathetic and well-planned refurbishment to now offer very generous accommodation spread over two floors and with a magnificent open-plan living and dining area, giving access through large doors to a lovely garden overlooking to hear the pleasant sounds of nature and the relaxing song of the river.

The grounds and gardens are simply stunning, 5,645 m² of private land offering generous mature lawned borders next to the picturesque river.

This would make it ideal for a family or anyone looking to enjoy a retreat in a natural paradise, offering tranquillity and peace. It could also be of interest for an investor looking to convert this property into guest accommodations. It benefits from being designated as a Rural House with licensing approved, and has the potential to install a further two kitchens to convert it into a self-catering holiday letting facility with distinct areas.
