Tips

Villa Paula, designed by the famous architect Jerome Granell i Manresa in 1912, is located on Carretera de les Aigües in Barcelona, on a private plot of about 35,000 m², one of the largest private estates in the city of Barcelona.

Of course, you can not miss a vast garden, a swimming pool designed in detail and privileged views that are just a few minutes from the Collserola Natural Park. The house is completely restored, but maintains many original architectural details, such as its façade, the hydraulic and marble floors, the high ceilings with moldings, the stained glass windows, the curved stairs or one of its hallmarks: the green Arabic tiles on its roof.

The house also boasts the latest modern conveniences and includes impressive outdoor areas, such as terraces, gardens, wooden decks and an attractive infinity pool with spectacular views of the city and the sea.

The constructed area of 920 m² includes the main house distributed over 4 floors and a tower, a guest/guard house separated from the main house by a corridor and a garage on the same level as the Vallvidrera road.

The whole house is a tribute to Barcelona at the beginning of the 20th century, which enjoyed great prosperity and where family houses were built with the best materials and craftsmanship. In addition, it was the clandestine residence of the president of the Generalitat Lluís Companys, who hid in Villa Paula at the end of the Civil War, waiting to go into exile in France, where he would be captured and sent back to Spain.
