Maison Cardedeu

Who hasn’t dreamed of living in a house away from the city’s hustle and bustle, just 15 minutes from Barcelona by AVE, surrounded by nature? In today’s world of online connections, where one can have one nationality, live in a different country, and work remotely for a company in a third country, who wouldn’t choose a healthy, peaceful, and idyllic life?

This is an independent, iconic, modernist, and very unique house. Its architecture, the work of architect Manuel Joaquin Raspall, offers beautiful architectural solutions. Upon entering, you are led to an octagonal space that serves as a distributor, topped with a glass dome that fills almost the entire house with natural light.

Interestingly, the design reflects the era’s concept where all rooms were interconnected, allowing a circular flow through the house. One of the rooms opening from this distributor is the large living-dining room. This lovely space faces the garden, with its pergola, perfect for lying in the shade on warm summer days, relaxing with the scents of the plants and the views. All rooms have exterior windows.

The house is bathed in sunlight from the first rays of dawn, which accompany you throughout the day until sunset, touching every corner. Next to the living-dining room is the kitchen, with direct access to the garden. It’s wonderful to cook while listening to birds and enjoying natural light.

The architecture is curious because the house is built so that its base and foundations, thanks to many small columns, are separated from the ground, creating an air chamber that insulates the house. This keeps it warmer in winter and cooler in summer. This design also allows for renovations, such as moving drains or light points beneath the rooms without altering their architecture.

In the basement, there is a utility area with large period sinks and access to the garden via stairs. The floors are beautiful hydraulic tiles. Heating is provided by radiators. Above, there is an accessible attic covering the entire house, protecting it from cold and heat, surrounding the tower and the glass skylight.

The house needs updating. From the outside, built with pink stone, it stands as a landmark. Its pink hue changes with the sunlight.

The modernist house is in impeccable condition, preserving all its original charm. Although perfectly livable, a renovation proposal of 130,000 euros has been estimated to adapt the layout for today’s families, achieving a perfect balance between modernist elegance and contemporary comfort needs. The owner has made a significant commercial gesture by reducing this amount from the final sale price. Thus, the property is presented with this discount, offering a unique market opportunity.

Take advantage of this unique moment; don’t miss the home you’ve been waiting for—a perfect place to enjoy with your loved ones.
