It is a very unique property with a unique character. A mansion built in 1926 for Mr. Luis Rodríguez Gal (Luis de Uranzu) by the renowned architect Luis Vallet Montano. Its style combines English country architecture with elements of French Brittany, resulting in an eclectic style with hints of neo-Gothic, which place this building among the most singular and unique among the architectural catalogues of the province of Guipúzcoa. The villa is built in exposed stone, cement and oak wood beams with hipped roofs and a medieval-style tower. On the south façade there is a continuous balcony with a wrought iron railing over a large open patio, on the west the dining room overlooks a terrace closed by a stone wall. The building consists of a ground floor of approx. 280 mts. which is divided into a stately entrance hall and two lounges, one of them with exposed oak coffered ceiling, the other with a height of approx. 7 meters, both connected, one of them with access to the dining room and both on the original herringbone oak wood floor. To the left of the main hall, a delivery man leads to a small living room, a double bedroom, a pantry and a kitchen that leads to the south terrace and dining room. The first floor of 250 meters with antique pine flooring consists of a master suite with dressing room and bathroom, a double bedroom with access to the balcony, two other bedrooms, one with access to the same balcony and a full bathroom. A room or distributor under a star also leads to a cabinet with a fireplace that gives access to the library that is located on the first floor of the tower. Above this floor there is an attic with Velux windows. This mansion is located on a landscaped plot of about 2,000 meters located in the very center of the city of Irun, 18 Kms from San Sebastian, 16 Kms from Biarriz, 700 Mts from the Franco-Spanish border and 3 Kms. from San Sebastian airport. The estate therefore enjoys a privileged location in the province of Guipúzcoa. The landscaped garden that surrounds this single-family house has a hundred-year-old tree set up of two colossal plane trees, magnolia, cedar, linden tree and a large shrub population renovated in this same year. The entire interior of the building was renovated in 2008, with city gas central heating and all its new electrical and plumbing system, paints, wallpapers, stabbing of flooring, kitchen and toilets absolutely updated. In 2021, the entire exterior of the building has been completely renovated with the best materials on the market and all wooden windows have been replaced with new lacquered aluminium systems and thermal safety glass. The north façade has double windows. The roof was completely rebuilt in 2002. The house has interior and perimeter alarm systems from the outside, as well as the fiber optic connection. Currently, although the mansion is not inhabited, it receives daily maintenance from the gardener and the cleaning lady. In short, it is a property that due to its unique character and personality is unrepeatable, a property that has only known two owners in its almost one hundred years of life. It has been published in the architecture magazine Cortijos y rascacielos (1931) and commented on by Don Lauren Etxepare and Don Fernando García Nieto, in their monograph on Luis Vallet (2015).
