This impressive luxury country house in Girona, meticulously restored, stands out for its elegance and uniqueness. The property includes a 13th-century chapel and enjoys unparalleled views of the Pyrenees, surrounded by 2.52 hectares of private land.
Church:
The church, attached to the main house, is a simple yet charming building distinguished by its uniqueness. It consists of a single nave with a rectangular floor plan, covered by a pointed vault, and a semicircular apse oriented to the north. The main façade features a doorway with voussoirs and remnants of a lowered arch made of carved stone on one side, along with the vestiges of what was once an old porch. Inside, the church boasts a stone cornice and stone slab flooring, while the exterior shows concave cornices on the sides and a convex cornice on the apse.
Regarding its history, local tradition suggests that a castle once stood on this site and that it later became a Benedictine priory. Before 1212, there is mention of a fortress that gave its name to a noble family in the area. Documents from the Diocesan Archive record that in 1253, a family founded the chapel and the priory. The church also features various inscriptions and modifications that attest to its evolution over the centuries: a reused stone bears the date 1632, while the side door with voussoirs has an inscription from 1622, in addition to other 18th-century modifications visible on a carved lintel.
The main house has four double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom. The spacious and bright master bedroom offers spectacular views of the garden and the pool. An independent annex, located across the courtyard, houses two additional bedrooms, both with private bathrooms, air conditioning, and large terraces with impressive views.
The open, modern, and fully equipped kitchen facilitates the preparation of high-quality meals. Additionally, the property features a small garden that provides a selection of vegetables, fresh herbs, and flowers.
The 13th-century chapel, a charming space, is currently used as a dining and living room with a unique atmosphere. In the upper gallery, which overlooks the chapel, there is a billiard table and an office area with access to a covered terrace offering exceptional views of the mountains.
The house offers the comfort of air conditioning for hot days and a cozy fireplace for chilly winter nights. Within the landscaped gardens, there is a 12-meter swimming pool, a large area for pétanque, and a lake.
The second annex building has been used as a working studio but could easily be converted into a guest house or staff accommodation.
The property, situated in an elevated position in the heart of the rural landscape, offers absolute privacy and tranquility, with panoramic views of Mount Rocacorba and the distant Pyrenees.
