House or villa for sale in Pravia

If there’s one village in Asturias that’s exceptionally beautiful and meticulously maintained, it’s Somado. For many reasons, and quite rightly so, it was chosen as the Exemplary Village of 2020 in the context of the Princess of Asturias Awards.

You’ll find everything from imposing mansions or palatial homes built by returning emigrants to typical Asturian houses made of stone or wood, with porches, some even perched high up with views of the sea—that blue sea in summer, or a play of grays on rainy days.

This is that house, a truly typical village house that still retains its original essence, lovingly renovated by its owners, giving it the necessary warmth to remain welcoming and enjoyable both in summer with its two porches or in winter by the antique kitchen fireplace.

This house has three floors: the ground floor overlooking the front garden, the first floor, and the attic, where the old loft used to be.

On the ground floor, a garden with a partial slope, an entrance with a lovely porch and barbecue area, plus a good-sized storage room. Inside, a beautiful kitchen-dining room and a very spacious en-suite bedroom with high wooden ceilings, a built-in wardrobe, a good-sized bathroom, and a sitting area with a balcony. Also on this floor is access to the charming back garden with another porch.

Accessing the first floor via the original wooden staircase, we find a pleasant living room with a balcony overlooking the garden, a full bathroom, and two small bedrooms.

A door opens, revealing the former attic, now transformed into a beautiful room with large wooden beams creating a vestibule between two spaces. Then, you look out the window and see the sea above the mouth of the Nalón River, with Los Quebrantos beach in the background, in San Juan de la Arena.

The property also includes a large plot of land adjacent to the house, with several fruit trees and a wooden tool shed.

Parking for 2 or 3 cars is perfectly situated.

The location is beautiful, the house is like something out of a fairytale, and the property is excellent with even more potential.

The village of Somado belongs to the municipality of Pravia, which we can reach in 10 minutes and where we find all services. It is just minutes from the Cantabrian Highway A8 junction, several beaches such as the beautiful Aguilar Beach, and less than 15 minutes from Asturias Airport. It has cafes, restaurants, and a shop, and is also next to Muros de Nalón with its own train station with connections to Ferrol, Avilés, Oviedo, and Gijón. [IW]
