Description
The historic house known as El Moreno is located in Tapia de Casariego, in a peaceful natural setting close to the sea. Built in 1921, it has remained in the same family for generations. Its architecture reflects the tradition of the so-called Indian houses built by emigrants returning from Cuba, while preserving a range of distinctive historical features.
The property offers 1,868 m² of usable space on a 1,500 m² plot. The original 368 m² house is arranged over three floors. Its characteristic glazed gallery fills the interiors with natural light and connects the living spaces with the surrounding greenery. One of the first floor’s most distinctive features is the flooring designed by Antoni Gaudí. Hand-painted frescoes and modernist and colonial-style furniture further enhance the property’s historic character.
The house is habitable but requires updating. It offers the opportunity to preserve its architectural and artistic value while adapting it to future use. Located directly on the Camino de Santiago del Norte, the property could serve not only as a home but also as the basis for a tourism project.
The sea is 1 km away. All services in Tapia de Casariego can be reached in approximately five minutes by car, Ribadeo in around 10 minutes and Playa de las Catedrales in approximately 15 minutes.
