Villa for sale in Castelldefels, Barcelona

“I would like to have a garden, a little house, grass, animals, books, paintings, music. And to take from all of this what I want to feel; to express all of these things. . . I want to live a warm, yearning, vibrant life; to have roots in life; to learn, to desire, to know, to feel, to think, to act—those are the things I want, where I must try to reach.”

With these words by Katherine, the house of Lucea welcomes us. As if it were a little piece of the Caribbean, we locate it in the Bellamar neighborhood in Castelldefels, with 395 m². We begin. We walk through the garden of 1,219 m², sit down to live it; the scent of jasmine and honeysuckle fills the air, swinging us in bloom and in white, among centuries-old cypresses and shrubs that have become trees. From even farther away, the smell of salt and young pine.

We move into the interior from the main entrance. A large living room opens up before us, presided over by a floor-to-ceiling window with an infinite view of the magnificent green garden. With different ambiences in colossal spaces, it lets us create areas according to our interests.

We walk through to the kitchen. With a clear modern and relaxed style, it invites us to sit down and uncork a wine with hibiscus flower while, at the same time, we share an escoviche fish. At ground level, and without ever taking our eyes off the garden, we step out from the kitchen. We find the backyard garden: a haven of peace, where the only sound is the silky song of the birds. A nook of peace and absolute privacy wraps us in and gives us complete tranquility.

The ground floor is complemented by a bedroom with an office and a full bathroom. We go up to the bedrooms via a curved staircase that dazzles us and takes us to the most private area. We walk through the entire floor.

Four bedrooms with capital letters, one of them triple—designed for the marriage of husband and wife—with a colossal dressing room and a monumental bathroom; two doubles and a fourth with a study, dressing room, private bathroom, and direct access to the rooftop terrace.

The house of Lucea cultivates tranquility, family, and privacy. It is not a luxury home. It is a home-luxury. If before kissing your beloved you have contemplated the stars, you won’t kiss them in the same way as if you had only looked at the walls of their home. The house of Lucea presents itself exquisitely in flavors, beautiful in colors and nuances, rich in gardens and sensations. With a style that reminds us of colonial Caribbean, it perfectly preserves all the grandeur of flavor and color, as if it were waiting to be loved for the first time.
