A 19th-Century Hacienda-Styled Farmhouse at the Heart of Grand Canaria
With its atmospheric, covered wooden courtyard balconies suspended above its avocado tree-shaded central patio, this wisteria-clad, 19th-century finca offers timeless island romance with curated interiors that highlight the property’s raw, natural charms.
The farmhouse’s authentic architecture marks it as one of the island’s last remaining hacienda-styled fincas, its standout feature its verdant central patio that serves as the home’s extended living area. Seating areas under the patinaed zigzag of dark wood balconies merge with the indoor common spaces, an elegant, stone-floored living room with a fireplace, an artfully tiled, terrace-facing farm kitchen and the spare, light infused dining area with a sister space outdoors.
The finca sleeps six in three bedroom-bathroom combinations. The primary bedroom is reached via a covered wooden balcony, a view space with a private en-suite bath and shower room. The other two bedrooms are set at garden level, one a double with an adjacent bath with a shower, the third a room with double twin beds and an en-suite bath with both tub and shower.
Avocado trees, wisteria, cacti, citrus and the allure of old stones make the outdoor spaces hidden-garden-styled magical. Add a barbecue, ping pong table, pétanque and dining area overlooking red-tiled rooftops ringed by mountains with the sea in the distance, and you’ve got a winner!
This heart-of-the-island finca comes with outdoor activities like ping pong and petanque, with a swimming pool planned by autumn 2025.

Around
The property is at the heart of Gran Canaria island, in the tranquil rural area of Vega de San Mateo, within the hamlet of Lomo Caballo. A path leads to the village center, that hosts a weekend market. There are shops and services about five minutes’ drive from the home.
Playa de las Canteras in Las Palmas is situated about half hour away by bus or car, with the expansive white sand dunes of Maspalomas about an hour away. Roque Nublo, one of the island’s hiking destinations, is 18 kilometers away (40 minutes), its panoramic rocky outcropping reached in about 40 minutes on foot. Guayadeque Canyon is another spot of wild beauty that’s a favorite of hikers, and La Ventana offers unforgettable views after walking through pine forests.
