Villa for sale in Castelldefels, Barcelona

“I would like to have a garden, a little house, grass, animals, books, paintings, music. And to draw from all of this what I want to feel; to express all these things... .

I want to live a warm, longing, alive life; to have roots in life, to learn, to desire, to know, to feel, to think, to act—this is what I want, where I must try to reach.

With these words by Katherine, the house of sole e de mare welcomes us. As if it were a small piece of the Mediterranean, we place it in Can Roca de Castelldefels, with 580 m².

We begin. We walk through the 1,145 m² garden; we sit down to live it. The scent of jasmine and honeysuckle arrives, setting us in bloom and in white, bathing us in open blue in summer and covered in winter. From farther beyond, the smell of salt and young pine, sheltered by its shade, on the breeze and in the view.

We move into the interior. A large living room opens up before us, presided over by floor-to-ceiling glazing to infinity, and two areas that separate the living room from the dining room.

We head to the kitchen. With a clear italo-mediterranean style, it invites us to sit and uncork a Pérgole Torte while we share a pappardelle sulla lepre. Always with the terrace present, always with the south sun flooding every last corner.

We go up to the bedrooms. One master suite with dressing room and bathroom. Two double bedrooms that share a bathroom. All connected by a second sun terrace, with views, light, and sea.

We go up to the attic and find a fantasy bedroom where the light bursts forth to the pillow. The terrace that accompanies it is the lookout that crowns the horizon.

If before kissing your loved one you have contemplated the stars, you won’t kiss her the same way as if you had only looked at the walls of your bedroom.

One important detail of the house of sole e de mare is the ground floor. A versatile space where we can find a very large work area, as well as a private apartment for family or unexpected visits, with two double bedrooms, a second kitchen, a living room, and direct access to the garden. The floor is complemented by a room for au pairs or assistants.

The house of sole e de mare presents itself exquisite in flavors, beautiful in colors and nuances, rich in gardens and sensations. With a style reminiscent of the region of Tuscany, it perfectly preserves all the grandeur of Italian humanism and the Renaissance, as if it were waiting to be loved for the very first time.”
