description

This five-bedroom house is found in a quiet hamlet in the area of Cotobade, in the province of Pontevedra, and has been renovated to a modern standard, at the same time as retaining the charm of this period home. Found 4km from the village of Carballedo, provisions and services are available locally, and Pontevedra is half an hour's drive. We access the property from the road to a parking area at the side of the stone-crafted house, and enter through the door on this side, onto the ground floor. We find a cosy living room with fireplace, and then down a step through to the fitted kitchen. The whole house has been modernized to a high standard, with nice design touches, such as the open staircase that rises to the upper floors and a galleried landing area. Stone has been partially left exposed to retain character. Leaving the kitchen to the right, we find the dining room, which has access to the back garden and the open staircase to the landing. On the right of this room is a downstairs bedroom with views onto the countryside and which has its own bathroom and wardrobe. There is also a guest toilet on this floor, which has a small laundry area. Onto the first floor we find ourselves on a galleried landing from which has an open view of the dining room below, and a second living space, perfect for reading or listening to music. Then along the hall there are two en-suite bedrooms, the master boasting fitted wardrobes and balcony, the second with walk-in wardrobe. Then up to the third floor, which is built into the attic space, there are two further bedrooms which share a bathroom, and a sitting are with a balcony looking out onto the garden and countryside to the rear. Back down to the ground floor and out into the back garden we are presented with an enclosed space, rich with a variety of trees and flowers, and a lawn area, as well as the traditional corn-store and of course, stunning views of the open countryside. This property would suit anyone looking for a more relaxed and quiet lifestyle, apart from the city, and in the privacy and quiet of rural Galicia. At the same time as offering seclusion, the property is 22 km from the city centre of Pontevedra, and so within reach of everything required, and within a distance commutable for work. It would also make an interesting investment as a rural rental property.
