The Soul of the Estate
Welcome to one of the most singular heritage estates in Baix Empordà. This property not only commands 108 hectares of unspoiled landscape, but also narrates the evolution of European luxury: from its 12th-century medieval origins to its refined Modernist transformation in 1910. A setting that has captivated international cultural figures and now stands as a truly exceptional opportunity for investment or private residence.
Architecture & Signature Spaces
The estate comprises a harmonious ensemble of over 2,200 sqm of built area:
The Main Mansion: A remarkable display of high ceilings, original stained glass windows and hydraulic tile floors. Highlights include the Imperial Salon and a unique conversation piece: a wine cellar that once served as a medieval prison — a privilege historically reserved for castles.
Privacy & Comfort: Five interconnected noble suites, a billiard room and an elevated terrace offering views that, on clear days, extend to the blue horizon of the sea beyond cork forests.
Versatile Annexes: Includes a connected secondary residence and an independent caretaker's farmhouse, ideal for distinguished guests or luxury hospitality projects (holding a hospitality license).
A Private and Productive Sanctuary
The exterior is a haven of tranquility structured around two monumental courtyards. The 2,200 sqm rear courtyard features a private swimming pool surrounded by mature gardens and a Modernist-style garage. The 108 hectares include an active forest management plan (cork production) and agricultural potential, ensuring the estate remains not only a legacy asset but also a sustainable investment.
