Townhouse with a patio in the heart of a "catalan" village between sea and moutains
(We are 2 empty nesters, aged 46 and 47, digital workers and we have this crazy dream to travel the world starting September 2020 for 1 to 6 months at a a time. Please contact us!!)
Our home is a townhouse situated in the very heart of an "Catalan" village which Church is renowed for its 12th century sculpture.
The area is called Northern Catalunya (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_Catalonia)
The house is 2600 sqft (240m2) on 3 levels and has been completely remodelled and decorated in 2011. Back in 1850, it was used as a barn for horses and housed grape pickers. A wisteria was then planted and it is still here in the house but it`s a tree now! its trunk starts on the lower floor, it goes through the wall and comes out to the patio upstairs!
Dowstairs is the garage, laundry+ a 645 sqft (65m2) room.
The second floor features a wide open space with kitchen+livingroom that opens to a patio with barbecue, a great sitting area you can enjoy under the shade of the 100 years old wisteria.
Three bedrooms +2 baths are also on that floor.
Then the study is on the third floor.
Air conditionning in the 3 bedrooms, wood fire place + electric heater.
Home automation
Wifi and high speed internet.
