Grande Tenuta DI Montagna

Historic Mountain Estate with Two Farmhouses and 220 Ha
Located in the stunning natural area of Alta Garrotxa, this extraordinary 15th-century estate, completely self-sufficient and off-grid, spans over 220 hectares of virgin forests and open meadows. The property offers total privacy, tranquility, and spectacular views, with enormous potential for a sustainable tourism project, an equestrian center, or as a family retreat.
THE SCENE
Situated 700 meters above sea level, this iconic estate enjoys a privileged location among ancient oak groves, wide pastures, and terraced land. It is only 12 km from the nearest village, with paved access up to the last 3 km, where a rural track in excellent condition continues. Isolated yet conveniently accessible, the nearest village is a charming authentic locality that has all essential services.
THE TOUR
With a total built area of 1,658 m², the estate comprises two main residences, traditional agricultural outbuildings, and stables for livestock.
The main farmhouse, from the 15th century, is distributed over three levels and has a valid tourist license. On the upper floors, there is a spacious central living area, a kitchen and dining room with vaulted ceilings, 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and additional spaces with great potential to be adapted as living areas. It also includes a separate 2-bedroom apartment for the caretakers, with private access through the old barn.
On the ground floor, the original rooms that were once used for animals, a cellar, and storage retain their rustic charm and can be converted into additional useful areas.
The building has been maintained and renovated in stages over the years. Although it is in good condition and perfectly habitable, there are certain improvements that could be made, and some spaces such as the stables or the old barn are still to be rehabilitated.
Just a few steps away, the second residence—a more recent construction of 320 m²—currently functions as a family holiday home and features 7 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and spacious living areas.
Surrounding both houses are several agricultural buildings, ideal for breeding horses, livestock, or as agricultural storage.
There is also the possibility of acquiring two adjoining estates, adding 50 additional hectares and two listed ruins with rehabilitation potential— a unique opportunity for expansion or creative development.
PRACTICAL DETAILS
Designed to operate completely off-grid, the estate has three natural springs and two large water tanks. Electricity is supplied through solar panels with a backup generator, ensuring a constant and sustainable supply. The residential area is fenced, offering privacy and security. Additionally, it has a telephone line, central heating, and other essential services already installed.
