Engel & Völkers presents a unique historic property in the heart of the Güell Colony

Can you imagine living inside a Modernist canvas, with the absolute freedom of a complete single-family home and a private garden where time seems to stand still?

Engel & Völkers has the privilege of presenting to you one of the most unique, authentic, and special properties in the area. Majestically located in Anselmo Clavé Square, in the heart of the protected core of the historic Colònia Güell (Santa Coloma de Cervelló), this magnificent 1894 estate is not just a home; it is a living part of the history of Catalan architecture.

Strolling through this setting is to breathe in the legacy of Antoni Gaudí and his closest circle of architectural collaborators (such as Francesc Berenguer or Joan Rubió), who brought this industrial colony to life by designing residential spaces for the professionals and intellectuals of the time. Living here means taking up the baton of that bohemian, creative, and inspiring atmosphere.

Absolute privacy and limitless space

The first thing that will captivate you about this property is its exceptional character: it is registered as a single built plot, completely unaffected by horizontal property (condominium) regime. Here there are no shared areas or community decisions; you enjoy total independence on a 378 m2 plot, something virtually impossible to find in a historic center.

The home offers an impressive 492 m2 built area according to the Cadastre (398 m2 of living space in the Land Registry excerpt, not including its generous outdoor areas), laid out in spacious rooms with high ceilings and wonderful natural light that floods every corner.

The garden of your dreams and a charming gallery

Stepping outside, you discover an oasis of tranquility. A spectacular private patio-garden of 168 m2, sunny and full of possibilities, where you can create anything from a lush botanical corner to a space for complete disconnection. In addition, the size of the garden allows for planning an attached exterior small house, ideal as an independent guest pavilion, a work studio surrounded by greenery, or a fantastic summer porch with barbecue.

The transition between the interior of the house and this idyllic garden is made through a beautiful 15 m2 ground-floor gallery. Picture yourself here in the mornings, with a cup of coffee in hand, enjoying the silence and the views over your own land.

The interior layout is designed to adapt to any lifestyle, offering a total of 6 very spacious bedrooms strategically distributed across the main floors. However, what makes this property truly magnetic are its two extremes:

• The Attic / Loft (90 m2): An impressive under-roof space divided into two enormous rooms. Its beams and light make it the most romantic corner of the house. Renovation possibilities here are endless: from a dream master suite with en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet, to a painting studio, a writing workshop, or an absolute relaxation area.
• The Basement Level (118 m2 registered): A spectacular, solid space with around 110 m2 of usable area. If you are a wine lover, this is the ideal place to design a private wine cellar; if you are looking for leisure, a games area or family cinema; and if you prefer, it can be transformed into a large professional studio or private parking within your own property.

A prime location

The house stands out on a privileged corner, bordering Anselmo Clavé Square, Fernando Alsina Avenue, and Barrau Street, ensuring open views and exceptional cross-ventilation. All of this in a peaceful setting surrounded by nature, yet excellently connected to Barcelona.

This property is a blank canvas waiting for someone who appreciates the value of the authentic, the exclusivity of space, and the magic of Modernism.

If you are looking for a house with soul, character, and unlimited potential, I invite you to see it with me. Let yourself fall in love with its volumes and start designing the home you have always dreamed of. Contact us at Engel & Völkers to schedule your private viewing.
