Engel & Völkers presents a unique opportunity to acquire or restore a jewel of Catalan architectural heritage, where classical elegance blends with an outstanding residential setting.
Built in 1928 on commission from Antoni Caballé by the renowned architect Josep Alsina Botet, this majestic property is an exceptional example of the period’s neoclassical architecture. The chalet, of considerable size, is intelligently designed with several volumes at different heights, allowing for perfect integration with and natural use of the site’s incline.
Over the decades, the estate has undergone major extensions that have given the complex an even more imposing character, without losing the essence of its original design.
The estate’s high aesthetic value lies in its ornamental details and classical composition: - The original design features a façade divided into three main sections. - The central section houses the staircase and entrance atrium, masterfully crowned by a spectacular pergola supported by pairs of Doric columns. - The exteriors are enhanced by elegant modeled-mortar balustrades arranged between pilasters. - The monumental entrance is framed by two pilasters topped with modillions and a classical cornice, culminating in small, distinctive turrets.
The estate enjoys a privileged location. This area has historically been known as the residential retreat of Barcelona’s bourgeoisie, characterized by its tranquility, abundant vegetation, and strategic proximity to Barcelona. In addition, the surroundings offer excellent connections to transport services and local commerce.
