Description
This historic luxury property for sale on the Costa Brava is one of the best examples of 19th century colonial style houses on the Costa Brava. It is a typical property from the 19th century era when wealthy Catalans who made their fortune in the Caribbean returned and built their own properties. This mansion is located in the centre of the beautiful medieval town of Begur. The house is part of the architectural cultural heritage of Catalonia and has been preserved in perfect conditions during the last century. The property has paintings and frescoes on the ceilings and walls that represent typical scenes, many with maritime themes, from 19th century Cuba where the first owner founded a tobacco factory. The property has been systematically updated and is in excellent condition with all the luxuries of modern living (including lift, modern kitchen, modern bathroom and central heating), making it a spectacular private residence. The property benefits from 4 bedrooms, 5 bathroom, extensive covered terraces with frescoed walls and several large reception rooms. There is the possibility of creating several additional bedrooms and even converting the property into a luxury boutique hotel. The property is located just 50 m from the main square of Begur and is located on a 1779 m2 plot with easy access by car and a large parking area. The house also has a beautiful garden with a swimming pool, decorative fountains, mature palm trees, a rose garden, orange trees and magnolias. This is a unique opportunity to acquire a piece of history in one of the most beautiful and desired locations on the Costa Brava.

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 £71,850 more.
