This unique freehold property, which dates back to the 17th century, has been restored with integrity from original and local materials.Set in 25.5 Hectares ( 65 acres ) of natural woodland, this stunning and tranquil location enjoys far reaching and unobstructed views over the entire valley. Access to the property is via a 1.5 km private track, and in spite of its privacy and seclusion, is only 15 minutes from the city of Girona and a mere 5 minutes from the town of San Gregori.

The farmhouse itself covers 243 sq meters distributed over two floors, with an option to extend the property by 20%. The interior has been left unfinished to allow the new owners to complete their home to their own specifications. An area around the farmhouse has been cleared for landscaping, with ample room for a swimming pooland decking. The property also enjoys its own private water supply. A proposed interior layout includes two/three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, living area and study. A two storey annex to one end of the property could be also be converted into additional living space and would make a wonderful office or artist's studio.

The area in which Canet d'Adri is located is unmatched for its beauty, diversity and its proximity to amenities, whilst remaining secluded, rural and peaceful. The historical rich city of Girona with its narrow medieval streets and magnificent gothic cathedral, its up market bars and restaurants, art galleries, shops and boutiques is a joy to explore. It also boasts its modern side, with international bus and train stations and an international airport (Ryan Air's hub for Europe) only 13 kilometers from the City. The new TGV high speed rail link, opening in 2009, will connect London, Paris, Perpignan, Girona, Barcelona and Madrid.

San Gregori, the town closest to the property at about 5 minutes drive away, is a thriving community with every amenity - banks, shops, pharmacy, school, supermarkets, bars and restaurants. Also nearby is an international 18 hole golf course, equestrian facilities, and a football and sports centre.

A little further a field, but still only a 40 minute drive, is the beautiful and largely unspoilt coast of the Costa Brava . With its beaches and coves, parks and nature reserves, cultural heritage and monuments and the mountains of the Pyrenees, the Costa Brava is unmatched for its rich diversity and rugged beauty.

Only two hours drive from Canet d'Adri are the ski slopes of La Molina and Masella, with more than 100 kilometres of downhill slopes, fantastic for intermediates, good for beginners and experts, and excellent for snowboarders.

A little under 30 minutes from Canet d'Adri is the French border, with excellent roads leading into the heart of France and the French Riviera .The wild beauty of Cap de Cruz National Park and Cadeques, home of Salvador Dali, isalso under an hour away.

In all, this property has it all - and more! Stunning and tranquil location, amenities, and a unique and original building with scope to develop and create. Truly a home to dream of...
