Julio Iglesias’s mansion in Piñor, Ourense, went on the market in the summer of 2026, a year after the singer acquired it from former Ourense mayor Manuel Cabezas and his wife, Ada Arroyo. The property was marketed through luxury real estate portal Lucas Fox, which directed prospective buyers to contact the agency for price details. The listing was later withdrawn, but, and the home remained part of the family’s assets, information from La Región.
The stone-built estate occupies grounds associated with an old Galician pazo and has extensive outdoor areas, including gardens and meadows, with tree-lined paths across the grounds. The property also has a swimming pool and an artificial lake, alongside a spacious garage. It is near A Peroxa, an area connected with Iglesias’s Galician family roots: his father, Julio Iglesias Puga, was born in the region. The property underwent conditioning works after its reported 2025 acquisition.
The singer’s son said on Televisión de Galicia’s Land Rober + Show that Iglesias planned to return to the home in summer, remarking, “It’s very cold now.” His comments came after the property had been taken off the market and reinforced its continuing association with the family. La Región reported that Iglesias and his wife, Miranda Rijnsburger, decided to withdraw the estate from sale.
Iglesias has previously owned a large rural estate in Argentina. In a 1993 report based on EFE, El País said he sold the ranch known as “Momentos” for US$3.5 million after buying it in 1983 for US$1.5 million. The 1,723-hectare property reportedly included a 1,200-square-metre mansion, livestock and horses. It also had staff housing and stables, plus two connected swimming pools. His representative attributed the sale to problems the ranch had caused.
Galicia’s field and rural setting continue to draw buyers seeking distinctive country properties. Demand for impressive homes is also strong elsewhere in Spain. In a related development, major housing initiatives have been launched in other regions, including a plan in Valencia to rebuild public housing after severe floods, as detailed in coverage of the La Torre housing project.
The Piñor estate’s brief appearance on the market drew attention to its secluded setting and extensive grounds. It was no longer being offered for sale at the time of La Región’s report.
