Do you want to make your dream of living in a charming Casa Indiana come true? This is a great opportunity to pull it off! Ideal for tourism business! Maisons de Rêve is pleased to present to you EXCLUSIVELY this jewel of Casa Indiana, to be renovated, located in Somao (Pravia). With 5.81 km² and around 300 inhabitants, it belongs to the Bajo Nalón region, is only 5 km from Cudillero, 2 km from Aguilar beach and just 10 minutes from Asturias airport. It is located in a privileged place, on top of a hill as if it were a fortress that contemplates the wild Cantabrian Sea on one side and the steep Asturian mountains on the other. It has been deservedly awarded as 'Exemplary Town of Asturias 2020' by the Princess of Asturias Foundation. This rural parish has been able to maintain the richness of the Indian heritage legacy that left in the ostentation of its villas the reflection of the success achieved in the Americas. The first impression you get when you arrive in this charming town is that you have been transported to another era, a trip to the past through its impressive houses. It is considered the town with the highest concentration of Indian houses in Asturias. The Indians were those emigrants who, at the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth, after leaving for America in search of a more prosperous future, returned to their native home after having reaped great fortunes. That economic opulence allowed them to build large and luxurious mansions (in most cases, because there are always exceptions) and, sometimes, to become benefactors of the land where they were born. The house that we offer you is called the 'CASA DE LA CAPILLA', stands out for its intense red color that attracts attention, its tropical vegetation, but also full of more common plants such as hydrangeas or calla lilies, which in summer bring to the town a beautiful color, its large glazed galleries... that mixture of Indian-style construction with traditional Asturian architecture. The contrast of the intense colours of the eclectic and modernist façades together with the wood and the sober colours of granaries and bread baskets. Its strong point is its EXTRAORDINARY LOCATION. It is located in a privileged place in the town, just in front of the Church and its main square. It was ordered to be built by Felipe Fernández and his wife Mercedes González Pire once they returned from Argentina. Years later, it would be a brother of the woman who had made her fortune in Cuba who would make renovations in the house, leaving it with its current appearance. It sits on a plot of 1,116 m2 and the house has 231 m2 divided into 3 floors. Outside we find a beautiful garden area, a tent to leave cars, a large granary built on a large building (approximately 120m2) and another large warehouse (approximately 80m2). These warehouses could be used as apartments, workshops,... There are endless possibilities. The house needs to be renovated, as is logical, since it is an old construction. IDEAL FOR INVESTORS. On the main floor we find an entrance hall that gives access to a living room, a living room and the kitchen that has independent access to the garden area. We went up to the first floor through its staircase with its wooden handrail and its cream-colored wrought iron of the time. There is a large hallway that leads to the 6 bedrooms and ends in a large living room with a spectacular gallery and a full bathroom with windows. On the upper floor there are 2 bedrooms and 2 more rooms. Spacious and very bright house, light permeates all the rooms, it preserves elements common to all Indian houses such as hydraulic and wooden floors, paintings on the walls and ceilings, original carved wooden doors, large windows and galleries where you could spend hours contemplating the beautiful views, reading, sewing or enjoying a coffee. There is the possibility of acquiring the two plots that are attached to the house (see plan) of 2,526 m2 for an additional €180,000. They are only sold together with the house. A unique opportunity as an investment for tourist accommodation or to fulfill the dream of living in an Indian house with so much history. Don't think twice and come and see this architectural gem! You will fall in love with it as much as we do!
