Lucas Fox presents Torre d’Amer, an exceptional historic property offering the rare opportunity to acquire an authentic castle with over one thousand years of documented history. Located in the municipality of Amer, in the La Selva region of Girona, this fortified tower first appears in historical records in 949 AD and is officially listed as a Bien Cultural de Interés Nacional (BCIN), a designation reserved for Spain’s most significant heritage buildings.
The estate sits on a private plot of almost one hectare, surrounded by nature and enjoying a high level of privacy. A private access road leads to the main building, set in an elevated and peaceful position, with south-facing orientation and open views over the surrounding natural landscape.
Unlike many historic properties that have been recreated or partially rebuilt, Torre d’Amer retains its original medieval character. Its thick stone walls, defensive layout and strategic positioning reflect its original function as a watchtower and means of territorial protection. Over the centuries, the property has evolved and adapted to new uses, while always preserving its identity and historic presence.
The property offers 747 sqm of built area, distributed between the castle, a traditional farmhouse and an independent two-storey annex, conceived as a loft-style space. The three buildings are currently independent, although they could be internally connected if desired, offering a high degree of flexibility. In total, the property comprises 7 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, as well as a fireplace, storage areas and spacious rooms full of character.
The estate is currently arranged as three separate units and benefits from an active tourist licence, allowing for immediate use either as a unique private residence or as an investment project.
The location is highly strategic, combining the tranquillity of a rural setting with excellent connections: 25 minutes from Girona Airport, less than 30 minutes from the city of Girona, and just over one hour from Barcelona.
Torre d’Amer represents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking more than just a property: a place with genuine history, architectural authenticity and long-term potential. A living castle, ready to continue writing its story.
