Description

Santes Creus, Aiguamurcia Castle / Palace

This house for sale was part of the monastic complex of Santes Creus. It served as a hospital and warehouse at different times, until in 1835, as a result of the Spanish confiscation, the family that currently owns the property bought it. Due to its configuration, the property could be divided into three homes, making the necessary adaptations.

Access to this four-storey house is via Plaça de Jaume el Just, within the monastery grounds.

On level 0 we find a large hall that can be reached from a corridor. A short staircase leads us to the living area of the house, with a large hall with a seating area and an entrance door to the great living room. The living room has an imposing fireplace and enough space to have several areas. In the hall we also find doors to two large double bedrooms, a small dining room, the old kitchen and the staircase that descends to level -1.

A staircase with a few steps also starts from the hall, which leads to another landing that provides access to a complete bathroom, the laundry room and the staircase to the upper floors. This staircase starts in a hall next to the main entrance, with a separate door and a living room-office with a window to the square.

On level +1 we find a night area that could be separate, with a central landing from which access to three alcove-style bedrooms. One of the bedrooms has access to a covered gallery with arches and a large terrace with views, a complete bathroom and a living room.

Following the same staircase, we reach level +2, with an open-plan room on two levels and the possibility of making a new layout to form a separate apartment. Currently, this floor has two bathrooms, wooden flooring and general lighting.

The -1 floor houses the kitchen units and the main dining room, which incorporates an adjoining living area.

A glass door leads to a natural garden on two levels, where we have a fountain, the old laundry area and various trees. The house also has a private garage with access to the square.
