luxury house with panoramic view for sale Villalba de Rioja, Spain

Casa Fuerte de San Gregorio is an extraordinary historical complex located in Almarza, Soria, nestled in a privileged setting of nature and tranquility. Its origin dates back to 1461 when Diego de Medrano was authorized to construct this fortified house, later associated with a Dominican convent. Declared a National Monument in 1949 and a Cultural Heritage Site in 1980, the property features an imposing Gothic-style fortified house, a Renaissance church, and cloister. The main building, with a square plan and organized around a central courtyard, retains notable defensive and ornamental elements, including battlements, circular towers, stone-carved gargoyles, and the Medrano coat of arms. The church, currently deconsecrated, has a Latin cross plan, a nave with ribs, a large dome, a monumental facade, a polychrome choir, and a medieval baptismal font. The cloister, with arcaded galleries and traditional cobblestone pavement, completes an architecturally singular ensemble of enormous heritage value. Carefully restored and equipped, Casa Fuerte de San Gregorio offers unique spaces for weddings, private celebrations, corporate events, institutional functions, and audiovisual productions. The complex also includes two independent rural houses, with a combined capacity for fourteen guests, enhancing its accommodation and operational possibilities. The sale includes the entirety of the architectural complex and 36 hectares of adjacent lands, providing privacy, breadth, and an exceptional natural setting. An unrepeatable property where history, architecture, nature, and business potential come together to offer a truly unique investment opportunity.

The property has private access through an automatic gate and parking space for up to four vehicles within the plot. The property sits on a private plot of 3,217 m2, a plot that reinforces the feeling of privacy, spaciousness and connection with nature. Upon arrival, a large front garden with a panoramic terrace facing the sea creates a spectacular first impression. A space designed to enjoy breakfasts facing the Cantabrian Sea, outdoor meetings or unique sunsets in an environment of absolute tranquility. The interior of the house surprises with its spaciousness and brightness. The generously sized main living room is organised into several different rooms and turns completely towards the sea thanks to a large panoramic window that visually connects the interior with the main terrace. The fireplace adds character and warmth to a space designed to be enjoyed all year round. The kitchen, spacious and equipped, has a central island, high-end appliances and direct views of the sea while cooking. From here you can also access a pleasant back area ideal for barbecues, outdoor meals or chill out area.

On this floor we find a spectacular double bedroom with high ceilings and direct access to a terrace from where the sea views are simply breathtaking, a bedroom of more than six meters long, a television or reading room and a complete toilet. One of the great added values of this property is its independent guest house of approximately 45 m2, loft type, fully equipped and with private access. This additional construction has a living room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, own terrace with sea views and separate parking space, which allows it to be used as guest accommodation, auxiliary housing, teleworking studio or even as an investment for premium holiday rental. In addition, the property has access to its own natural spring, an increasingly exclusive and difficult to find value. This natural water supply allows for practically unlimited water availability, ideal for watering orchards and gardens, maintaining outdoor areas or even for filling a future swimming pool, as the plot offers space and potential for installation. The property offers a combination that is very difficult to find in today's market: endless sea views, privacy, spaciousness, large private plot, independent guest house, connection with nature and excellent location between San Sebastian and Bilbao. A unique property for those looking for much more than a home: an authentic refuge in front of the Cantabrian Sea where you can enjoy the most exclusive and authentic essence of the Basque Coast.
