In the center of Valldevià, municipality of Vilopriu, located in the Baix Empordà region, so well known for its beautiful landscapes, its medieval villages, and the enchanting Costa Brava, we discover a magnificent 17th century Manor House, of approximately 1,576m2, very well preserved and which stands out for the well-made workmanship and the authenticity of its spaces. It is an ideal property for those who value the constructive tradition and enjoy maintaining its essence. The first 200 years of history were dedicated to the production of wine and olive oil, and from 1800 they turned to livestock.

A large entrance, already renovated, leads us into the interior of the house, where we discover an open sky, which allows the entrance of outside light and makes it even more pleasant. On the ground floor we will find 14 rooms of different sizes, most of which have very well-preserved vaults, and are made of stone, bricks or formwork with reeds. Two of the rooms have squared ceilings, or beams after the roofs were renovated. We will also find a magnificent whole stone tank that was used for wine production, a well that we can access from each floor, animal feeders and an old oil fountain. You can maintain or modify the stone pavements, depending on the use you want to give them.

Climbing some beautiful stone stairs, we access the first floor, the most lived-in area of ​​the house, where upon entering, we discover a large room, with very well-preserved floors and a magnificent vault. We also find a beautiful stone fountain with angels, a chapel, stone pillars, and access to the large terrace with unbeatable views: Empordà, the bay of Roses and sunrises.

On this floor, where it is worth noting that the walls and floors are practically untouched, we have 17 rooms, 3 of them with access to the terrace, the large room, the stately bedroom and a final room with access to the old well of the house. Next to it, we find 4 more rooms, 3 of them with vaults with a lot of detail.

Right next to the main room, we discover the old kitchen of the house that reminds us of the well-made workmanship, present at all times, with a beautiful vault, a hearth stone, a wood-burning oven and the counter and sink with beautiful hand-painted tiles. Next to it we find a second kitchen, smaller, with a fireplace and other hand-painted tiles that also stand out for their beauty. Next to it, we find another small room, and the open sky that gives light to the entrance of the house. From here we can access the room with a balcony that overlooks the north facade, and another room, also accessible from the other side of the large kitchen, where we find the stairs to access the second floor.

But before going up, we will find another space, with an open sky covered with a skylight to give light to the house, a charming pantry or cellar, another room that gives access to the West facade, a third kitchen with a fireplace for the old farmers, and the last room already mentioned, which gives access to the open sky.

On the second floor, where it is advisable to eliminate the poor-quality ceilings and the various partitions for a new distribution, we find 10 more spaces. A hall, next to the open sky with a small room on the side, gives way to a large room, which is a joy for its squares, and which has access to a small terrace (open sky of the house), and access to the West entrance of the house. Likewise, we find another room, with a balcony facing the same facade, which stands out for its beautiful handmade tile flooring.

Just on the other side, we will find another space, which gives way to 2 more rooms, where you can check the good condition of its beams, like most of the beams in the house, and another large room with a reed ceiling where we discover a great jewel of the house, a spectacular wooden structure for the assembly of the vault in the large room, thus, the vault does not work just because it is a vault but it holds on to the structure and we have double security, another demonstration of the well-done workmanship.

Finally we access a last room, very beautiful for its vaults and which gives access to the upper terrace of the house, also with access to the old well, where we can again enjoy the views of the Empordà! It could be a private residence, tourist inn, rural tourist accommodation, space for celebrations and events, whatever you like the most! Do you dare?

It should be emphasized that the roofs of the house are in very good condition, as is much of the cornice, only small details need to be repaired. The facades of the house practically do not need to be touched. We recommend exposed installation to save on labor, as there is a large volume of walls that do not need to be touched, and much of the carpentry can be restored and reused. By the way, we still have a third floor under the roof, but it is inaccessible due to lack of stairs. And there is water and electricity! ��
