4 Bed Villa for sale
Sant Pol de Mar, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain
Full Description
We present a unique piece of heritage: a spectacular Catalan farmhouse with origins dating back to 1168, although its current structure was renovated and consolidated in the 19th century. Located in a prime spot in the heart of Sant Pol de Mar, the property is just a few meters from the town center and the beach, combining historic tranquility with the conveniences of coastal living.
The property is distinguished by being comprised of two buildings separated by an old path, which gives it a unique layout and multiple possibilities.
The farmhouse sits on sloping land, taking advantage of the incline of the nearby mountain to create a multi-level structure.
Ground Floor: Originally, the main entrance was on the south side, leading to a foyer (currently divided, but easily reconfigured). On this floor, we find the large kitchen with access to a small terrace, as well as bedrooms and a full bathroom.
Upper Floor (Independent): This floor has its own staircase and entrance, allowing it to function as a completely independent dwelling or be integrated into the main house. The wooden beams are in good condition or have been replaced with modern beams.
Basement/Cellar: In the lowest part of the house, there are two spacious brick vaults with independent access. These rooms, which served as a cellar and tool shed, have the potential to become a spectacular rustic living room, gym, or recreation area, and are connected to the main floor by a staircase.
Separated from the main house by the old road, there is a long and very distinctive building, historically known as "the stables." Its design is remarkable, with reinforced windows adorned with solid brick, giving it a meticulous and unique finish. This space offers unlimited potential to become an artist's studio, guest house, or coworking space.
The exterior reflects the farmhouse's agricultural past and adds exceptional value:
Threshing Floor and Courtyard: It features a threshing floor and a tiled courtyard on the upper level, which formerly served an agricultural purpose.
Water Resources: The property benefits from an irrigation pond fed by the farm's wells. The oldest well is brick, and there are other modern wells.
This farmhouse requires a complete renovation to update its facilities and finishes. However, its strong character, rich history, and prime location make it a unique opportunity in Sant Pol de Mar.
Ideal for visionary investors, history buffs, or anyone wishing to create an exceptional residence combining rustic luxury with beach living.[IW]
