Historic masia sold in the Baix Empordà – Literary legacy in the heart of the Costa Brava

In one of the most emblematic corners of the Baix Empordà, within the Montgrí Natural Park and surrounded by untouched nature, BARNES Costa Brava has successfully closed the sale of a 19th-century historic masia of exceptional heritage and cultural value.

This is a unique estate that once belonged to the family of the renowned writer Caterina Albert (Víctor Català), preserving all the charm of the Empordà’s traditional rural architecture. With more than 1,000 sqm built and five hectares of land with olive trees, the property offers an ideal foundation for a high-end restoration, combining history, location, and future potential.

Situated in the Golden Triangle of the Baix Empordà, the masia enjoys an enviable setting: close to medieval villages such as Peratallada and Pals, just minutes from the Costa Brava beaches, and completely private amid natural landscapes. This area—celebrated for its exclusive lifestyle and harmony of culture, gastronomy, and sea—is one of the most sought-after luxury real estate destinations in Catalonia.

The transaction was led by the BARNES Costa Brava team and finalized by an American buyer, who shared the following words about the experience:

“As an American buyer facing a very complex transaction for a historic property in the Empordà, I could not have received better support than that provided by the BARNES Costa Brava team, led by Jordi Mercader…”

Beyond valuing the technical management and expert guidance, the buyer also shared the deeper meaning behind this acquisition:

“We want to turn this property into our home—a place where our children can grow, fully integrate into the community, learn the local language, and thrive in a safe, enriching environment in this magnificent corner of the world known as the Empordà.”

This testimony perfectly reflects the BARNES spirit: more than selling properties, we help create new chapters of life in exceptional places.
