BathroomsNestled in the heart of Alella, one of the most sought-after towns on the Maresme Coast, this exceptional 8-bedroom historic estate offers a rare opportunity to own a fully restored home blending timeless elegance with modern comfort, just 20 km from Barcelona.
Recognised as part of Catalonia’s Architectural Heritage, the property has undergone a thoughtful and high-quality renovation. Original features—such as stone walls, vaulted ceilings, and traditional flooring—have been lovingly preserved, while the home has been carefully adapted for modern living. The result is a residence that feels both timeless and refined, elegant yet deeply welcoming.
Spanning approximately 836 m² of living space across three floors, the property is connected internally by a beautiful staircase and externally by a private lift that serves all levels—providing both convenience and accessibility.
The layout has been designed to create a warm, functional flow throughout the home. Living spaces are generous and full of natural light, with high ceilings enhancing the sense of openness. At the heart of the house is a large family kitchen and dining area—ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
The lower ground floor features a stunning entertainment space, complete with the original wine cellar, a stylish bar, and a dramatic vaulted hall that can be used for events, a cinema room, or personal retreat.
Upstairs, there are eight beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with its own unique view of the surrounding landscape—from sunlit vineyards to sweeping vistas of the Mediterranean Sea. These ever-changing outlooks give each room a special atmosphere and a deep connection to nature.
The property features underfloor heating (mains gas) throughout, with solar panels supporting the hot water supply—bringing energy-efficient comfort into this classic setting.
The outdoor areas are equally inviting: landscaped gardens, expansive terraces, and a 10m x 4m swimming pool provide a serene escape. Adding to the charm is a private chiringuito (outdoor bar and lounge area) by the pool.
Additional features include ample private parking, several outbuildings, and a large rooftop terrace with 360º panoramic views of the sea, vineyards, and hillsides. An underground rainwater tank with a 100,000-litre capacity supports the estate’s sustainability and garden irrigation.
The location offers the best of both worlds—peace and privacy, yet close to everyday amenities including shops, restaurants, cafés, international schools, and public transport. The highly regarded Hamelin Laie International School is nearby in Montgat.
A valid tourist rental licence adds an extra layer of opportunity, allowing for commercial use or seasonal rental income if desired.
