About this property
Villa Alella is a striking 19th-century estate that pairs historic grandeur with an enviable setting on Spain’s Maresme Coast, just north of Barcelona. Set within five acres of private grounds, the villa is framed by centuries-old pine and eucalyptus trees, a peaceful pond and four distinctive towers that look towards the Mediterranean. Original architectural details, including coffered ceilings, chandeliers and gilt-framed portraits, celebrate the home's heritage, while thoughtful modern updates ensure a comfortable stay.
Outside, days unfold between the saltwater swimming pool, shaded walks beneath 200-year-old trees and leisurely lunches in the outdoor living and dining spaces. Breakfast service each morning adds an extra touch of ease, while Wi-Fi, satellite TV and a contemporary kitchen bring the comforts of modern living to this historic home.
With Barcelona within easy reach, nearby beaches just minutes away and the renowned wine village of Alella on the doorstep, Villa Alella offers an exceptional base for holidays with friends and family.
Villa Alella enjoys a privileged position in the heart of Alella, one of Catalonia's most celebrated wine-producing villages, on the Maresme Coast just 20km from central Barcelona. This sought-after area combines a relaxed coastal atmosphere with excellent access to the city, making it ideal for guests who want to balance beach days, vineyard visits and cultural sightseeing.
The village centre is within walking distance, where you'll find welcoming restaurants, cafés and local wineries producing the region's distinctive DO Alella wines. Montgat Beach, known for its golden sand and calm waters, is around a ten-minute drive away, while Barcelona's world-famous architecture, shopping, museums and vibrant dining scene can be reached in around half an hour by car or train.
Nature lovers will also appreciate the nearby Serralada Litoral Natural Park, offering walking and cycling routes through Mediterranean woodland with views across the coastline.
