Townhouse for sale in Albons, Girona

Charming 20th century villa a few kilometers from the sea and with 2ha of land.
Located a few steps from the center of town, this villa stands between urban and rural land: in front of it a town with a restaurant, medical center, convenience store and social club; behind it, the countryside and open views to the fields. This unique property was built in the mid-20th century with very high ceilings and noble balconies, one of the few from this period in the area. The south facing house enjoys a privileged position, being the last urban property in town. A spacious house with many possibilities thanks to its current structure. With options to be a large family home, a small rural accommodation or both at the same time with independent access.

The scene: The house is located a few steps from town via a paved road through which you can reach the beach. The farm is unfenced on a large plot with a small orchard in the back and two hectares of fields that surround it. The land is ideal for both crops or horses. Located just 5 minutes from l'Escala and the beach. It is also just 30 minutes away by car from Figueras with the high-speed train connection to Barcelona.

The tour: We enter through a large wooden door to the large central hall and main staircase. On this floor we find 400m2 that currently serve as warehouse space. However, it's all prepared with windows and doors to become a home, with stone walls and high vaulted ceilings. In the northern part there is a second access to an annex volume with two floors and a secondary staircase to access the main volume.

Reaching the first floor from the staircase located in the entrance hall, we find the residential floor with 4 bedrooms that can be converted into suites due to their size and a single bathroom for the entire floor. A living room with fireplace on the south side and the dining room, kitchen and pantry are located on the north side. It is precisely in this sector where the second staircase connects to the annex volume. On the east façade we also find a large sunny terrace from end to end of the house.

The second floor, which is accessed by the main staircase, has two open-plan rooms that can be converted into a separate apartment or extra accommodation of the main house.

Apart from the 1,000m2 garden, the property has 2ha of arable land.

Practical details: The structure of the property is in good condition except for some beams. Although the house is completely habitable on the first floor, it requires a comprehensive renovation in the rest of the areas. It has drinking water from a private well and mains electricity. There is no sanitation that should be connected to the town. Proximity to the town will make connections very easy when desired.
