We have for sale this Unique 17th-century mansion which is located in Icod de Los Viños. This historic 17th Century property is registered in Catastro as built-in 1600 however there is uncertainty as to the precise date of construction.

The built area of the house, including patios and tanks, is approximately 1,100 sq. Meters. There is approximately 800 sq. Meters of the garden, incorporating No 9, which currently has no building on it.

The renovation to the property is approximately 75% completed, some major reconstruction has taken place with the majority of it being the rear part of the building where it was deconstructed and re-built to today’s standard re-placing the older materials with more substantial materials. The house is a timber-framed construction and is predominantly of Tea, which is a highly prized wood coming from the central section of the Canary Pine and valued for its color, longevity, and resistance to insect invasion and very hard to find today. The remaining work to be done consists of replacing flooring in some areas and where necessary, the current owner has a substantial reserve of tea timber on site for this, the finishing of the electrical installations, and cosmetic plastering. Under the current owner plans it is anticipated a further €150K would achieve this.
