The core of the house was built in the eighteenth century, with later additions in the nineteenth century. It started life as a mixed farm, growing olives, wheat and other arable; it also processed its own grain as evidenced by a millstone that still remains. In the 20th century it was used for some years as a hunting lodge but then fell into decline. It was bought by the present owners in 2000 and has since undergone an extensive period of loving restoration and investment. The house has 12 spacious double bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, 11 of which are en suite; two large reception areas; two exterior reception areas; spacious halls and corridors and two kitchens one for house guests and one for a professional chef. It has a dining room that can seat 36. There is also a laundry, a sauna and a steam room. Thirty metres away from the main house lies the service cottage. It is currently used as office and staff quarters, but it has been renovated to a high standard and is suitable for additional guest accommodation. It consists of a kitchen/living area downstairs (12m x 3m) while upstairs there are three bedrooms and one bathroom. You cant see any light from the house nor hear any traffic, and in spite of being within easy reach of Girona Airport, it is not under any flight path. It is the perfect retreat from the pressures of 21st century life. The house is arrived at via an enchanting 2km private drive through forest with some long views down the valley. At the entrance to the drive there is an hotel which, though not part of the estate, offers excellent security. There is opportunity to re-route the drive privately from the hotel (permission in place). The garden has been environmentally designed to be non-watering, and there are spacious lawns and terraces. A feeling has been created of the house being in the forest, and there are breathtaking views from the house out towards the surrounding hills. At the bottom of the valley there are lagoons, pools and a river. The land is there to be enjoyed: many trails have been cut for hiking and cycling. There is a mosaic 18m x 9m heated swimming pool. The pool house, with its quarry tiled floor, offers a spacious, cool retreat from the rigours of the Mediterranean midday sun: a place to eat, read and relax. It houses a kitchen, WC, a barbecue and a dining area with a capacity for 36 persons. There are external showers. 2.250.000 euro RefvL04 Info info@casescatalanes.com www.casescatalanes.com Phone +34 972 591 926 or +34 663 895 059
