Everything you need to know about this house / villa for sale

This large Catalan country style house was built in 1998 and is located in Palou Alt, just on the border of the town of Sant Pere de Ribes, a short walk to the shops and only a 5-minute drive to the centre of Sitges. The property has been recently renovated to improve its comfort and style using only the finest quality materials: a combination of terracotta clay tiles throughout the house, hard wood double glazed windows imported from Germany, under floor heating and exposed wooden beams with Catalan vaulted ceilings. South facing, the house enjoys natural light and country views.

The rooms are distributed across 3 main floors plus a basement. An entrance hall on the ground floor leads to the living-dining room and the kitchen which includes designer appliances, including a stainless-steel worktop, the kitchen has access to a terrace overlooking the pool. A guest toilet completes this floor. To the left of the entrance we access the laundry room and garage.

Half a floor up from the living space there is a bedroom with its own terrace (currently being used as a TV room), then a total of 3 bedrooms on the first floor: 1 double bedroom with en-suite bathroom plus 2 double bedrooms which share a bathroom, whilst the second floor is composed of the impressive master bedroom with private bathroom, walk-in wardrobe and private terrace from which the lovely sea views can be enjoyed.

Heading down to the basement, here we find several practical areas including a pantry and a large wine cellar. There is also a 143m² open space, currently used as an office, which would make an ideal gym or large playroom.

The house boasts attractive outdoor space; stairs lead from the kitchen/dining area to the swimming pool. There is a shaded chill-out area and side access to the garden through wrought iron gates.

The property has a particularly high level of security: cameras, exterior and interior motion detectors, iron shutters, etc. for total peace of mind.
