Description
This elegant country house, ready to move into, is located in the old town of Santa Cristina d'Aro, just a few minutes from the beautiful beaches of the Costa Brava, half an hour from Girona and one hour from Barcelona.
The house, which dates back to the end of the 16th century, has been completely restored with exquisite taste and noble materials, maintaining the architectural elements of the Catalan countryhouses, such as the tuff floors, the stone lintels of the doors and windows, the Catalan 'volta' vaults, etc. The result is a house that elegantly blends the rustic and the classic.
The main facade, covered with climbing ivy and beautiful bougainvilleas, maintains its original structure. A large hallway welcomes us and leads us to the main living room with fireplace and a large dining room. On the ground floor there is also a TV room, a fully equipped kitchen, a wine cellar, an office and a guest toilet. From the kitchen there is access to the covered porch with dining area. Its large windows open up to the dining room, the outdoor living room and the swimming pool area.
The master bedroom with its soaring wooden beamed ceiling is one of the most impressive rooms in the house. Its eight large windows offer stunning views of the surrounding landscape. It also has a 45m2 bathroom with dressing room.
On the upper floor there are six further double bedrooms, three of them with en-suite bathrooms.
The generous outdoor area is dominated by an imposing saltwater swimming pool with a porch that invites us to enjoy the space. And its well-tended garden, with its olive and fruit trees, offers a space of calm and harmony.
It is equipped with solar panels, water softener, heating with cast iron radiators, city gas cooker and hot water, two water accumulators that allow to have hot water instantly in any of the bathrooms of the house, controlled sprinkler irrigation system, alarm system, fibre optics.
