"Charming 18th Century Farmhouse with 7.6 ha of Land, Swimming Pool, and Olive Groves" This unique property, dating back to the 18th century, features a main farmhouse and two annexes. The main house has 761 m2 and offers generously proportioned living spaces with many original historical elements. The annexes have a total of 300 m2 and provide flexible additional space, perfect for agricultural or auxiliary use. Set within 7.6 hectares of flat land, the estate includes 2.5 hectares of irrigated olive groves, a pine forest, landscaped gardens, and charming terraces. Along with the large swimming pool, the property also boasts a tennis court. The Scene Nestled on the outskirts of a vibrant town in the heart of the Empordà region, this historic farmhouse offers a secluded retreat, yet remains conveniently located just a 5-minute drive from all local amenities and only 15 minutes from the nearest beaches. The Gavarres Protected Forest, a designated area of natural interest, is just a short walk away. Surrounded by lush greenery and offering complete privacy, the property is free from immediate neighbors. A beautiful stone-walled patio leads to several original stables and wine cellars located on the lower ground floor. The Tour Upon entering the main farmhouse, you are greeted by a spacious central hall with a grand vaulted ceiling, which leads to various living areas. The ground floor includes a generous living and dining room with a cozy fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, a smaller sitting room, a spacious master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and private terrace, three additional bedrooms that share a bathroom, and an office. Good sized windows throughout the house offer plenty of natural light and lovely views of the surrounding landscape. The upper floor, accessed by two separate internal staircases, offers a third living area that opens onto a large terrace, overlooking the swimming pool and tennis court. The lower ground floor houses the original stables and wine cellars, along with a double bedroom and bathroom. This floor is internally connected to the rest of the house via a staircase but also features separate entrances from the walled patio, making it an ideal space for independent guest accommodation. The Swimming Pool Annex is a single-story building of 64 m², which includes storage space, a pool machinery room, and a covered area perfect for an outdoor kitchen. The Agricultural Annex is a two level structure, built in 2007 for the commercial production of olive oil. The first floor houses a shop/office, storage rooms, laboratory, and toilets. The lower ground floor contains a garage, along with spaces dedicated to production and bottling. Practical Details This property is equipped with all necessary utilities, including mains electricity, water sourced from three private wells, fiber-optic internet, and a telephone line. The house is heated by a gas-oil boiler, ensuring year-round comfort.  Although the property is perfectly habitable, it has been restored in phases over the past 50 years and currently requires improvements and updates.
