This elegant villa, nestled in Calella de Palafrugell on Spain's Costa Brava, boasts an extensive restoration from September 2020 to March 2023, that was focused on bringing light into the space, owing to wide windows and skylights illuminating previously dark areas and opening views of the Gavarres natural landscape. The villa was originally built in the 1970s and has been converted into one of the most wonderful and modern homes.
Set on a plot of 10,000 sqm, the 500 sqm house has been carefully re-designed by the celebrated local architect and decorated by the interior designer from Bloomint Design who has beautifully combined authentic works of art with local artisan pieces and second-hand antique finds.
The villa benefits from general communal areas, an amazing contemporary kitchen, and cozy bedrooms. The landscaped exterior is equally comfortable with numerous lounge areas, old olive trees, a large 18 × 4m swimming pool, perfect privacy, and fantastic panoramic countryside views of the Emporda Plain with the Gavarres in the distance. The lovely pristine beach of Cala el Golfet is a five-minute walk away while the restaurants of Calella de Palafrugell are a short 15-minute walk away. The Cap Roig headland, perfect for forest walks or cycling is literally on your doorstep.
Designed in serene neutral colors, the house is adorned with custom-made pieces of furniture from the Belgian designer and carpenter including the long dining table made from reclaimed pine beams. The villa not only promises aesthetical pleasure and comfort, it also boasts modern facilities such as powerful air conditioning in each bedroom and retractable Smart TV which appears out of the floor! The kitchen is also charming with its central island and micro-cement work surfaces and is equipped 2 two dishwashers, a large American-style fridge, a Smeg induction stove, 3 ovens, and osmosis drinking water on tap.
The property offers 5 en-suite bedrooms, three on the upper level and two on the lower level. 4 bedrooms benefit from flexible accommodation with king-size double beds (180 cm) or twin beds. Bedroom 5 has four single beds and is perfect for kids. All bathrooms offer a shower while bathroom 5 also has a bathtub. All bedrooms feature cupboard space and air conditioning with independent control.
The interior design with a black-and-white color palette makes an elegant contrast with raw wood, stone, and linen fabrics adding some warmth. The villa's layout was beautifully reimagined to comfortably accommodate 12 guests. The kitchen marries modernity and a Mediterranean vibe, featuring custom concrete and raw oak cabinets, and a central island. The living room is designed for relaxation, with a white-painted wooden ceiling, big sofas, and a fireplace.
Outside, terraces with pergolas, a panoramic terrace, and a peaceful garden with a large pool invite you to enjoy the Mediterranean climate.
