What a masia in Arenys de Munt is like

The masias around Arenys de Munt are traditional stone farmhouses, often several centuries old, surrounded by woodland and former farmland. Some estates include several dwellings, making it possible to accommodate several generations of a family or to have a guest house. The size of the land, orientation and access are as important as the house itself.

Countryside and sea a few minutes apart

One of Arenys de Munt’s advantages is its position: in the heart of the valley, surrounded by nature, yet very close to the coast. This combination lets you live in a peaceful rural setting without giving up the beach, the port of Arenys de Mar or the services of the coastal towns. For many families, it is the way to enjoy the countryside without moving far from Barcelona.
