Everything you need to know about this country house for sale

This immaculately restored masia is located in a lovely countryside setting just 10-minutes (8 km) from the centre of Girona city.

The property, parts of which date from the 17th Century, offers an impressive 1,000 m² of beautifully restored living space with approximately 1,500 m² still to be restored. The property boasts a total of 9 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.

The house is set in 2.8 hectares of private land, part of which forms a large lawn garden with a swimming pool, part of which is set to pasture and the rest is woodland. The property also offers a beautiful walled courtyard, ideal for al fresco dining and for entertaining large numbers of people.

The house is built across three levels and a key feature of the property is the impressive size of the living areas, particularly the bedrooms. The restoration works have fully respected the original architecture of the property and the house still boasts a host of original features, including handmade terracotta floor tiles, beautiful Catalan vaulted ceilings, the original bread oven and lovely stone arches.

The property is on mains electricity and the water is provided by 2 private wells. The house has central heating throughout.

The house would make a wonderful family home and could easily be split into two or three independent dwellings. Given the property's proximity to Girona city, it would also make an attractive commercial venture, such as a guest house or a boutique hotel. The fact that there are still around 1,500 m² to be restored also makes it an interesting investment opportunity. 

The River Ter is just a minute's walk from the bottom of the garden (fishing is possible) and the open countryside provides ample opportunities for long walks and cycle rides.

This is one of the most beautifully restored properties that we have seen in the Girona area. The restoration works took five years to complete and the attention to detail is exceptional. 

The property offers a host of possibilities, either as a private residence, a commercial venture or an investment opportunity, and must be seen.
