Traditional Cantabrian architecture

Between centuries-old stone walls, in the town of Marina de Cudeyo, Cantabrian region of Trasmiera, stands this semi-detached house from the 19th century that preserves the authenticity of traditional Cantabrian architecture. The house opens onto a 1,200 square meter garden surrounded by a 2.80 meter high stone wall. Large windows flood the rooms and connect the interior with the landscape. The house has two floors. The ground floor leads to a living room that is integrated with the kitchen and the upper floor houses four large bedrooms. A distinctive element is the access, from the terrace, to another part of the house that requires comprehensive renovation and totals 250 square meters, they say in The Sibarist. roman g.aguileraroman g.aguileraroman g.aguileraLocation: Marina de Cudeyo (Cantabria)Surface: plot of 1,200 square meters and 400 builtCondition: goodPrice: 620,000 eurosPhone: 91 308 40 50
