Unique architecture on the sand

Engel & Völkers is pleased to present this exclusive frontline beach property in Santa Marina, Ribadesella. With a unique location and double orientation, connected to the promenade and the street Dionisio Ruisánchez. Crossing the south garden we find a cosy porch in front of the main entrance. The spacious entrance hall, through a stone staircase, leads us to a large living room with fireplace and access to the terrace, distributed in different levels and areas, living room, library, all with huge windows overlooking the sea. This room extends, with a huge sliding design door, to the main dining room, which leads to the kitchen and the service area, which has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and access to a private porch, separated by a screen of vegetation from the rest of the garden. From the living room, descending several steps, we reach the master bedroom, a large bedroom with fireplace, dressing room, bathroom, living room and exit to the terrace, overlooking the garden and the sea. The first floor is accessed by a staircase with a striking design, which leads us to the different bedrooms, two with sea views and three with mountain views, these with access to another cosy terrace. Some of them have en-suite bathrooms and dressing rooms and all of them have built-in wardrobes. Another bathroom completes this floor. On the ground floor, there are two more rooms and a bathroom. Slate roof recently renovated in its entirety. The house has a garage with a pit and a semi-basement with boiler room, storeroom, changing rooms, toilets and bicycle storage area. The spectacular architectural design was made in 1955 by Ignacio A. Castelao, but even today it enjoys a timeless modernity that integrates it into the landscape. A multitude of original details can be appreciated: its colourful stained glass windows, the wrought ironwork, the perimeter railings, the gates and grilles on doors and windows. Inside there are also five murals (two mosaics and three frescoes) by the prestigious Asturian painter Antonio Suárez. The building combines the use of different materials, especially limestone, wood and iron, which, together with a well-kept garden, make this property one of the most outstanding on Ribadesella's seafront promenade. The house is situated in the central part of the property and is slightly elevated, giving it spectacular views of the sea. Possibility of segregating in the south area and building 2 semi-detached houses with a maximum surface area of 120m2 each.
