Description

We find this unique house built in the wall of the castle of Hostalric dating from the 15th century. Once we enter through the main door, we have access to an interior courtyard. On the right-hand side there is a large sauna and showers at the entrance to the sauna. From the inner courtyard we also have access to the garage with parking for two vehicles.

Returning to the inner patio, we have access to the first suite, which contains custom-made wardrobes, a large room with large windows and a complete bathroom with toilet and shower. On this same floor we find the second suite of the house which has a bathroom with toilet and shower, a terrace with mountain views and a large bedroom.

On the second floor is the access to the dining room and the kitchen which is fully equipped, by designerbrand and has large windows that give a lot of light. Next to it is the dining room with a large window, which is very comfortable due to its proximity to the kitchen. On the third floor, which goes from the dining room, we find the main living room of the house.

It stands out for its large size, its large windows from which there are spectacular panoramic views of the mountains and the castle of Hostalric. Outside the main living room there is a large terrace with a large mobile barbecue, ideal for sunbathing, having breakfast, lunch or simply relaxing while observing the surrounding natural environment.

Moving on to the third and last suite. Of all the suites, it is the largest and has the best views. It has a very large bathroom with a bathtub and a designer shower. The room stands out for its large size and views. This room has a private terrace located in the highest part of the house. Without a doubt, it is a spectacular house, warm and functional inside and located in a historic environment with very good communication.

-- Declared a Cultural Asset of National Interest (1963), the village of Hostalric preserves one of the most remarkable monumental legacies of the Catalan medieval period and is protected by the imposing modern military fortress. Situated on an ancient volcano, the old medieval castle of the Viscounts of Cabrera maintained control over the Royal Road, halfway between Girona and Barcelona.

From the 17th century onwards, it began to be transformed to adapt to the new times and the new defence strategies of the modern era. That is why, despite being a fortress, it is popularly known as Hostalric Castle. The spectacular wall stretches up to 600 metres and along its route there are 10 exceptionally well-preserved towers.

There are magnificent views over the whole village, the Tordera valley, Montnegre and Montseny. The village is surrounded by gently sloping mountains with magnificent views, ideal for enjoying a fantastic setting for hiking and cycling. Hostalric enjoys an ideal location and very good communications.

It has access to the AP-7 Girona motorway and the C-35 road. The Eix Transversal is just over 20 km from the town and the N-II is just a few minutes away. The Barcelona-Portbou railway line passes through the village and has a stop. Girona is 40 km away and Barcelona is 60 km away. Blanes, the nearest coastal town and the entrance to the Costa Brava, can be reached in 20 minutes by car.

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 £21,487 more.
