Description of the property

Situated in El Pedró, in L'Escala, on the Costa Brava, this home reflects the character of Mediterranean summer houses built from the 1970s onward. Just a four-minute walk from Platja del Rec, it combines proximity to the sea with a quiet setting surrounded by pines and vegetation.

The garden blends with the existing vegetation, with pines providing shade and privacy, and stone paths leading to the entrance of the home.

Overall, the home offers a good location, open spaces, several terraces, and an independent annex with versatile potential.

Description of the location

L'Escala is a municipality located on the coast of the province of Girona, on the Costa Brava, made up of several population centers: L'Escala, Sant Martí d'Empúries, Riells and Montgó. This seaside town, with a wide variety of seascapes, enjoys a mild Mediterranean climate.

There are beaches close to the urban area, such as Les Barques, and others reached via long seaside promenades that run alongside them, such as Riells Beach. Very nearby is the bustling Port de la Clota, L'Escala's current fishing and leisure marina.

In the southernmost part of L'Escala lies the popular Montgó Beach, a typical cove of fine white sand, flanked by an old defensive tower that serves as a perfect lookout to enjoy striking views.

The Ruins of Empúries, a must-see site: in 1908 the first excavations uncovered these settlements dating back to the 9th century BC. Here you can see remains of the Roman and Greek cities, large Roman forums and walls, as well as the remarkable mosaics of the domus, and Greek statues and amphorae.

Not far from the ruins is the small, charming medieval village of Sant Martí, ideal for a stroll and a well-earned rest in one of its bars and restaurants.

The town of L'Escala is in the province of Girona, just 50 kilometers from Girona Airport and 100 kilometers from Barcelona Airport.
