A stone house in Pontevedra is listed for 330,000 euros, 27 kilometers from Santiago de Compostela. It has six bedrooms, a pool, and a 3,000 m² estate. The listing leaves out impressive details about the property’s legal status and what buyers are getting for the price.
The basic house has six bedrooms over two floors. Upstairs are five double bedrooms and one single. Four of the doubles have private bathrooms; the other two share a bath. Downstairs, a kitchen opens onto a combined living and dining area. The floor also has a guest toilet and what used to be a wine cellar. The covered porch includes a built-in barbecue. The listing does not say whether the house is furnished or when it was built.
Outside, the estate has landscaped gardens and fruit trees. A traditional hórreo also stands on the property. There is a large kiwi vine and a partly covered grapevine. The listing mentions a pool and covered parking for six cars, but gives no information about the pool’s size, age, or maintenance, details that matter to rural buyers.
The property also has a 45 m² independent apartment with its own entrance. Inside are a bedroom and bathroom. Its kitchen is open-plan. The listing does not clarify whether the annex is officially registered as a separate dwelling or is simply extra space, a distinction that could affect its use or mortgage valuation.
Heating comes from a diesel boiler with its own fuel tank, and the house uses a water chlorination system. The listing omits the water source. It also says nothing about sewage arrangements or the property’s energy rating. Past utility costs and the tank’s capacity are not provided either, leaving buyers with little indication of annual expenses.
The location is presented as a selling point: 27 kilometers from Santiago de Compostela and 20 from Lalín, with a claimed 15-minute lead to Santiago by motorway. But the exact municipality is not named, making it impossible to check local services or confirm travel times. The listing also leaves unclear whether the hórreo is properly registered. The same question applies to the pool and parking, an impressive issue in rural sales, where surprises are common. As reported earlier, even well-planned rural projects can run into unexpected legal or practical problems.
Before putting down a deposit, buyers should check who the seller is and whether there are outstanding debts. They should also confirm the total built area, as the Notariado recommends. Those needing a mortgage should review current lending terms and obtain an independent valuation. The listing does not break down taxes or transaction costs, and remains available for anyone seeking more photos or details.
The property stands out for its size and rural setting, but the lack of clear legal and technical information is a concern. At 330,000 euros, buyers need solid facts and documentation alongside attractive photos. The listing shows why sellers in Spain’s rural market need to provide these details up front: without them, even appealing properties leave buyers uncertain.
