It is a tradition of old Mediterranean fishermen to seek ancient shelters protected from the southern winds. If we look closely at the map, we find a place that is like an island, with long arms nestled between rocky coasts at the entrances. A whim of this coast, small Mediterranean fjords that extend inward to rest on a low shore. Relaxed. The house SA ILLA CALOBRA reminds us and celebrates the relaxed life of our coasts. Located on Castelldefels beach, with 210 m² of built space, the house presents itself as unique and Mediterranean. Let’s see... Fishermen say there is no better moment than glimpsing the lights of their home from their llaüt. An idyllic moment is crossing our garden. Clearly open, exposed at the bow, intimate under the pergola at the back, where every confidence stays among us and events become unforgettable with indirect lights under the moon. It is important to expressly mention this corner, a unique and social nook where everyone is invited to feel this very Mediterranean life that characterizes us. - An indoor pool where the intense blue maintains its temperature every day of the year. - The garden is complemented by an open space for three. It is said that a boat’s sail covers it in summer and transforms it into the sea. We enter now. Light boldly enters through the living room windows. Imagine entering a place where the outside naturally blends with the inside. From the sofa, your view can focus on the light, a book, or the green of your garden—all at once. Open dining room to the living room, living room open to the light, all created to feel, all felt to relax, all relaxed to laugh and rest. We continue and pass through this space to the kitchen. The Mahón pantry, d’Aló cookies, les Banyes, or a Fritel-la are dishes to taste, to delight in, to cook with direct access to the garden, creating moments to remember. A place to connect where all visits will stay late to enjoy. The floor is complemented by three bedrooms and a dressing room. We go up. Under my bed are shells, algae, sands; your place begins where my sheets end and the sea revives. Master suite and terrace, all charming, spacious, bright, and something that cannot be explained but makes you feel as if you were at home, offering rest. The terrace, the stars of the sea. Stranded on the sand and inspired by its memory, the house SA ILLA CALOBRA transports us to the emotions and feelings of the sea, the fisherman, and his people; people of home.
