Mediterranean Splendor: Iconic Villa of Cantallops in Sant Andreu de Llavaneres (Off Market)

Constructed in 1967 and exquisitely revitalized in 2021, this iconic Mediterranean family villa stands as a testament to timeless sophistication. Designed by the acclaimed Catalan architect Lluis Cantallops, it captures the essence of an era while seamlessly blending modern elegance.


Nestled upon a sprawling hillside parcel spanning nearly 2,000 m², the residence is ensconced within lush gardens, where the Mediterranean charm harmoniously converges with nature’s splendor. Its southern and southeastern orientation ensures both utmost privacy and tranquility, mere moments from the local amenities of Sant Andreu de Llavaneres. This prestigious address also situates the villa a mere 10-minute stroll from the village center, while the nearest beach and marina beckon just 2 km away.


Commanding stunning sea views from its hillside perch, the villa’s landscaped gardens and inviting pool area create a captivating Mediterranean vista, beautifully framing the living areas and bedrooms.


Echoing Lluis Cantallops’ signature style, the villa showcases locally-sourced brickwork and boasts a modular design, with interconnected units that bear his architectural genius. Meticulously overseen by the current owner, the renovation is a masterclass in preserving the home’s architectural integrity while embracing contemporary living. The result is one of the region’s most exceptional residential properties, characterized by expansive open-plan spaces, abundant natural light, and high-quality contemporary finishes.


Spanning a generous 570 m² across two levels, the accommodations are thoughtfully distributed. The main living spaces and modern kitchen, along with four luxurious family bedrooms (three doubles, one single) and three bathrooms, grace the upper level. The lower level features an additional guest suite, complete with an ensuite bathroom, an office space, and a fully-equipped gym. Connecting these levels is the original stone spiral staircase, a nod to the villa’s architectural heritage.


At the heart of the home lies a spectacular open-plan lounge, which encompasses a modern, fully-equipped kitchen with a central workspace, a dining area boasting magnificent southern views over the pool and the endless sea beyond, and a sunken sitting area crowned by a fireplace. Expansive floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors seamlessly merge indoor and outdoor spaces, while bathing the interior in a warm natural glow.


Just steps from the lounge, an alluring 5m x 10m saltwater pool, fringed by cobblestone and surrounded by several terraces, beckons for relaxation and recreation. A shaded pergola adjacent to the pool offers an idyllic setting for al fresco dining. The remainder of the garden is a beautifully landscaped oasis, featuring irrigated lush lawns, a basketball court, and meticulously designed beds of lavender, agapanthus, and other Mediterranean shrubs.


An impressive entryway, lined with olive trees, provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles, including a covered parking space with an electric vehicle charging point.


Central heating and air conditioning dance in harmony, largely powered by solar panels, rendering the villa nearly self-sufficient and ecologically conscious.


No expense has been spared in the renovation, resulting in an elegantly contemporary aesthetic, characterized by polished concrete floors, a harmonious color palette, and consistent materials throughout living spaces, bedrooms, and bathrooms.


This property stands as one of the most remarkable family estates in the Maresme region, nestled in one of the most coveted residential neighborhoods, inviting discerning connoisseurs to experience its unparalleled allure.
