Description
Owning this historic manor house in Liérganes means securing a truly unique way of life: 16th-century stone with a crested façade and original arcades, reimagined with a bright, contemporary interior. Beyond the door, the grand living room with a marble-clad fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows frames the garden like a painting; winters are spent by the fire and summers spill effortlessly outdoors. The kitchen and dining areas flow naturally to porches and covered galleries—perfect for lingering breakfasts, leisurely lunches, or an evening drink while the children play on the lawn.
The grounds are a statement in themselves: a 2,000 m² private plot with mature trees and a swimming pool that becomes the social magnet in the warmer months. There’s ample space to host family gatherings, set a long table in the shade, or simply lie back and listen to the river and birds—a garden designed to be lived in, not just looked at.
Upstairs, the principal suite is a serene retreat: generous in scale, softly lit by gauzy curtains, with a designer touch at the upholstered headboard. Additional bedrooms sit alongside it for family and friends, including a dorm-style room ideal for younger guests, with bunk beds and access to a spectacular timber gallery under the eaves. The social heart of the home rises in a double-height space with exposed beams, where a lounge area and billiards table preside over gatherings, laughter, and celebrations. The property also offers everyday pleasures—from bikes ready under the arcades to quiet corners for reading—that set the unhurried rhythm of the north.
This is a home to bring people together—and to keep them there: character, history, and a comprehensive renovation that prioritizes comfort, light, and noble materials. Steps from the bridge and village life, and a short drive to beaches and mountains, it delivers privacy, easy access, and the essence of Cantabria as your own. If you’re looking for an emblematic home in which to write your next chapter, this isn’t just another option—it’s the house.
