Iconic Home At The Foothills Of Puiggraciós

Engel & Völkers exclusively presents this iconic and distinctive mansion with fabulous views of the landscape. It was built in the 1960s with visionary architecture, notable for its interesting dialogue between interior and exterior. Located on the foothills of Puiggraciós Mountain, its land area covers nearly 65,000 m2 of lush forests of protected native vegetation.

With access via two roads, the property is reached by a tree-lined drive that leads to the impressive entrance of the home. The hall opens into a large living–dining room with fireplace, flooded with natural light thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows running from one end of the house to the other, and with access to a large terrace.

The kitchen with pantry, laundry room, and staff quarters are on the same floor. We go down a staircase to the bedroom level, where there is a large suite with bathroom, dressing room and study, plus five additional bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms and direct access to the garden.
In the mezzanine of the house there is a large library and lounge area, from where you can access the top of the home and enjoy stunning sunsets with views over the landscape.

Adjacent to the main house is a second residence featuring a heated pool with sauna and jacuzzi.
The home’s outdoor pool is complemented by a rustic cottage with barbecue area and a tennis court.

L’Ametlla del Vallès is a municipality in the comarca of Vallès Oriental, located south of the Cingles de Bertí (Pre-Coastal Range). Its location gives it two types of landscape: the Vallès plain, predominantly agricultural, and another more mountainous one.

The main urban center lies between both landforms, enjoying a gentle slope. Its history dates back to the year 903, when the municipality’s name first appears associated with the daughter of Count Guifré, to whom it belonged. However, it was not until 1843 that the first town council was formed. Population growth became especially notable between 1970 and 2004, when the number of inhabitants multiplied by 6, reaching the more than 8,000 who live there today. Examples of the comarca’s agricultural past can be found in the farmhouses of Ca l’Arenys, Can Carlons, Can Divino, Can Draper, Can Fàbregues del Bosque, Can Guineu, etc...

We can also find architectural and religious heritage, such as the parish church of Sant Genís de l’Ametlla, built in 906. The Modernista imprint, the result of the momentum at the beginning of the 20th century, is reflected in several buildings, among which the town hall building (1912), Cal Barber, Dr. Balsa’s café (1906), and Can Millet (a farmhouse originally from the 14th–17th centuries) stand out.
