Manoir De Mendiola : Un Chef D'œuvre Architectural Unique à 15 Minutes De Saint Sébastien

Mendiola Mansion is not merely a large residence. It is a property with its own architectural identity, designed by the renowned San Sebastián architect Miguel Garay (1936–2023), whose career was closely linked to contemporary Basque architecture and the San Sebastián School of Architecture, where he also made a significant contribution as a teacher.

Mendiola Mansion, in Andoain, forms part of Miguel Garay’s documented work and was designed in the late 1970s, at a particularly significant point in his professional career. The COAM’s Arquitectura magazine itself included Mendiola House among Garay’s selected works, alongside other projects developed in Gipuzkoa.

Set in a private, nature-surrounded setting just 15 minutes from San Sebastián, this exceptional villa offers approximately 900 m² of living space distributed over three floors. The generous proportions and distinctive character of the design make this a property rarely found on the market.

The residence has five bedrooms and six bathrooms, as well as a comprehensive leisure and wellness area with an indoor swimming pool and gym. It also features a garage, fireplace and aerothermal heating system, combining the character of an architect-designed home with modern amenities and comfort.

One of Mendiola Mansion’s greatest assets is that it has recently been updated and improved, including major work on the building such as the renovation of the roof, windows and insulation. These improvements preserve the property’s architectural character while enhancing its efficiency and comfort.

The property belongs to the body of work developed by Miguel Garay during the 1970s and 1980s, a period characterised by considerable formal sensitivity and the pursuit of a distinctive architectural language connected to the cultural context of its time.

Mendiola Mansion therefore represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire much more than a large residence: an architect-designed property with history and character, combining nearly 900 m² of living space, first-class facilities and a privileged location surrounded by nature, with San Sebastián just 15 minutes away.

A mansion for those who value architecture, privacy and the uniqueness of a truly one-of-a-kind property.

A PRIVILEGED LOCATION: PRIVACY AND CONNECTIVITY

Mendiola Mansion enjoys an exceptional location that combines the privacy and tranquillity of a natural setting with the convenience of being in Andoain, perfectly connected to San Sebastián and the main cities of the Basque Country.

Located just 15 minutes from San Sebastián, this mansion offers proximity to the city, its beaches, and its gastronomic and cultural attractions, while retaining the feeling of living in a private setting surrounded by nature.

Andoain also has excellent road and public transport connections, providing easy access to San Sebastián, Tolosa, Irún and the rest of Gipuzkoa. Andoain railway station offers connections to San Sebastián and other destinations throughout the region.

Its location is particularly appealing to those seeking a private residence with easy access to the area’s main airports. San Sebastián Airport, in Hondarribia, is nearby, while the international airports of Biarritz and Bilbao considerably expand national and international connections. San Sebastián Tourism places these three airports approximately 20, 45 and 105 km from the city, respectively.

This combination of natural surroundings, privacy, proximity to San Sebastián and excellent transport links makes Mendiola Mansion an especially attractive location both for residential use and for an international project.

A private retreat in the heart of nature, with the city and the region’s main connections just minutes away.
