* From January 1, 2030, all properties for sale or rent in Spain will need to meet a minimum 'E' energy rating, with the minimum rising to 'D' by 2033.

Laguna Negra and the Sierra de Urbión mountains sit close by, which means this stone house in Molinos de Duero gets to name-drop some of Soria's main tourist draws. The village itself delivers nature and tranquility, the kind of place where people actually use those words without irony.
Now, about the layout.
It's complicated.
The listing describes it as “customized and adapted to your needs,” which is estate agent code for “the current arrangement doesn't make much sense, but that gives you options.”
1,002 square metres built but only 100 square metres usable suggests a lot of unconverted or partially finished space. Six bedrooms, one bathroom. Three floors that need rethinking.

Ground floor has a hall, spacious kitchen, two rooms, storage room with fireplace, boiler room, and the sole bathroom with bathtub. First floor gets confusing: two halls, one leading to a bedroom that's the only one with heating, the other leading to two bedrooms with wooden floors. Then four more rooms, one providing access to two additional rooms, one with access to the attic (and somehow back to ground floor), another with an oven and two sinks. Second floor is just attic space.
The photos show natural stone walls, exposed beams, rustic finishes. Some areas look finished and charming, others look like building sites mid-renovation. It's got character without question, but it also needs a clear plan and probably significant investment to turn into something coherent.
The listing positions it for family residence, tourism project, or rural guesthouse. Given the layout chaos and single bathroom for six bedrooms, the guesthouse route would require serious reconfiguration. Tourism project feels more realistic if you're willing to commit to the work. Family residence depends on whether you find the maze-like floor plan charming or maddening.
Whether it's layout changes, structural issues, a full gut, rewiring, or just a lick of paint, use the Renovation Budget Planner to estimate the costs, completion timeline, and recommended contingency you'll need for the project. Then download it and keep it handy for contractor negotiations.
Molinos de Duero sits in Soria province, surrounded by nature. Laguna Negra's a draw for tourists, Sierra de Urbión for hikers. If you're banking on tourism income, the location supports it. If you're after a quiet life in the mountains with a project to keep you busy for years, this delivers.
€490,000 for 1,002 square metres of natural stone with tourist-area proximity. The price assumes you're buying potential rather than a turnkey situation, and you'd be right.
