Description
A spectacular original Catalan farmhouse from 1687 located a short distance from one of the most prestigious towns in the Baix Empordà, which was completely restored by its current owners between 1987 and 1992, and is perfectly preserved today. The architectural value of the farmhouse is remarkable, its antiquity and characteristics make it a valuable example of traditional local architecture. We access the estate through a nice entrance from where you can see the farmhouse, its annexes and the pleasant views of the countryside. We enter the farmhouse directly through a charming patio, with stone vaults, and once on the ground floor, we find the large hall characteristic of this type of construction, a winter dining room and a living room also with vaulted ceilings, where the stables were once located, a large kitchen with direct access to the outside, 3 double bedrooms and 2 complete bathrooms, a guest toilet, and games room, ideal for children. We go up to the first floor via a comfortable staircase, and we are greeted by a beautiful landing, which leads to an open terrace connected to the entrance patio, the master bedroom suite, with dressing room and private bathroom, and the large living room with fireplace and a large window that offers great views of the countryside. On this same level we find another suite bedroom, and the spectacular library, which is surprising for its size and its original interior well, currently only for decorative purposes. On this same level, there is another terrace, this one completely covered and with a surface area of about 60 sqm, which could easily be converted into a living area, ideal as a small apartment with 2 bedrooms, or a work studio, since it also has good views. Leaving the farmhouse, on its west side, are the main garden area, the swimming pool and its changing rooms, porch and summer dining room with barbecue, as well as the small guard house, warehouse, machine room and covered garage for 2 cars. This magnificent property, due to its excellent location in the middle of the countryside, very close to both the village centre and the main beaches of the Costa Brava, medieval towns, natural parks and the main golf courses in the area, can be adapted to multiple functions, as a primary residence, a family holiday home, as well as a hotel/tourist business and, especially, for holding events.

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in Spain will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.
The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.
This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £52,938 more.
