Description
In the peaceful enclave of Herrera de Ibio, part of the municipality of Mazcuerras, stands this mansion-palace that combines the weight of almost two centuries of history with the solidity of a comprehensive renovation completed just seventeen years ago. The property is not presented as a mere residence, but as a space full of character, where every architectural detail dialogues with its natural surroundings.
The complex sits on a 2,872 m² plot, enclosed by high stone walls and dominated by a gateway that marks the entrance to a world apart. Inside, the mature and well-maintained garden is populated by large trees that provide shade, privacy, and seasonal beauty.
The main building has a built area of 929 m² and is spread over three floors. On the ground floor, the spaces follow one another with the nobility of grand Cantabrian estates: entrance hall, living-dining room, family rooms, kitchen, and pantry, with access to a greenhouse that seamlessly connects to the auxiliary building. On the first floor, the staircase leads to a library-lounge that leads to five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a utility room that lets in light from the surrounding landscape. The lower level houses an open-plan study, an ideal retreat for work or contemplation.
The auxiliary building, designed for service and leisure, includes practical spaces such as the garage, storage rooms, a storage room, and a boiler room, along with recreational areas such as the barbecue, the grill-bar, and the sauna.
The renovation respected the essence of the mansion: masonry and ashlar walls, ceramic tile roofs, exposed wood coffered ceilings, and floors alternating between marble on the ground floor and wood on the upper levels
