Apartment for sale in Castelldefels, Barcelona

It is said that, after traversing all the oceans of the world, the legendary Dutch captain Arjen van Deursen decided to anchor his life in a place that somehow gathered all the landscapes he had loved: the infinite sea, the silent mountain, and a light that seemed written by navigators. That place was Bellamar, in Castelldefels. Welcome to Blauwe Horizon. There he found this unique 170 m² dwelling, located in one of the most exclusive areas of the Mediterranean, where nature embraces architecture and every sunrise recalls the luminous edge of an open horizon. As if it were the refuge of a great navigator, Arjen used to say that a true seaman can only live in a home that has departure and return views. From its 40 m² terrace, Castelldefels unfolds before the eyes, the sea in plenitude and, at the rear, direct access to the Garraf Natural Park, a secret door to trails of ancient explorers. The spacious living room, with direct access to the terrace, was his terrestrial observatory. There he wrote in his notebooks while the light changed as it did on the command bridges of his ships. The open kitchen, bright and oriented toward the blue horizon, reminded him of early mornings aboard the Zeemeeuw, where he prepared strong coffee while the crew still slept. We continue with the bedrooms. Five, three of them doubles, designed for travelers. Arjen used to welcome familiar sailors, old friends from distant ports, and he would give them rooms where the calm of the surroundings made even the saltiest men rest deeply. In total, the apartment has 2 full bathrooms and 1 half bath, distributed with the same functional logic that he so valued in a good ship. On Blauwe Horizon’s floor there exists a hidden heart where one of the captain’s favorite corners hides: a 25 m² wine cellar/party room. There he told unbelievable stories: storms at Cape Horn, skies that seemed to spill over the Baltic, sunsets in New Zealand. The walls still seem to hold the echo of his laughter when he recalled that “every journey ends at a table surrounded.” As details that define the home, the floor includes an elevator, parquet floors, an independent laundry room, and parking for 2 cars. Regarding the community, one could say it is worthy of a great captain; here lies a large pool with panoramic views, where he used to float gazing at the clouds.
