Carmen Martínez Bordiú sells her property in Cantabria with MIKELI
Carmen Martínez Bordiú tells us
“The first thing that captivated me was its surroundings, because it is truly a privileged setting. You get the feeling of being outside the world.”
Those who have visited this property, located within a natural park in the Valles Pasiegos, understand Carmen’s statement. They can feel her words as if they were their own. This is due to the emotions evoked by the extraordinary estate of over 50,000 m², together with the surrounding landscape. The tranquility, calm, and harmony bring you closer to a state of serenity.
While the sun bathes this south-facing property, a sheer mountain cliff over 100 meters high protects it from the north. From this height, soaring above Carmen’s Pasiego house, vultures dive toward the valley, offering those present a unique and privileged spectacle from the multiple terraces.
More than terraces, in this case, they could be called viewpoints, as from them one can take in the immensity of the valley, its endless mountains, and the rich pastures that create breathtaking scenery. In winter, the snow cloaks everything in white—a wonderful landscape to admire from the fireplace of this exceptional Pasiego house.
As Carmen Martínez-Bordiú explains, “There are many houses, but privileged places like this are truly rare.” This idyllic location captivated her and has served as a refuge, a place to escape the city and the everyday worries of life.
What motivated Carmen to sell her house in Cantabria?
With great sorrow, she made the decision to sell her property. This way, someone else will be able to enjoy everything this place has offered her.
What led Carmen to make this decision was her relocation of her permanent residence. She is now living in Portugal. The distance makes it even more difficult to find a moment to escape to her retreat in the Cantabrian valleys.
The curiosities and peculiarities of this Pasiego mansion are hidden in every corner. From its access, which is a fork in the road cutting through the mountain rocks, to its bathrooms, where the mountain is literally present as it serves as a wall. For example, the bathtub is embedded directly into the rock.
All the decorative elements, furniture, and even the smallest details have been carefully chosen and designed to Carmen’s exquisite taste. This makes each piece sold with her house distinctive, unique, and part of her personal story.
When we talk about this mansion as a place to escape, it means truly disconnecting. There is no mobile coverage, no phones. It has only a landline and television.
At MIKELI Luxury Real Estate, we will be delighted to share with you every uniqueness and explanation of the abundant details that make this property truly one of a kind.
