Descriere generală
This is a stylish, large family home that succeeds in combining practicality with good taste. Ideally located in the thriving market town and capital of the area, Tortosa, this property provides 260m2 of brilliantly designed, interior space. Found in the old barrio, this neighborhood is already seeing a rejuvenation with a lot of houses in these old, medieval streets being renovated. But Casa Simanda needs no work whatsoever. It is finished to an extremely high level that combines no less that a leafy, interior courtyard open to the sky with all the modern facilities one needs to live comfortably in the city. It begins when you step off the street into a 60m2 parking and workshop space. Parking! That is one city-headache out of the way. Ascending to the first floor, you arrive in this cute lounge that leads onto that leafy courtyard. Perfect space for the morning coffee and a crisy bacon and brie bagel, lightly toasted naturally. On this floor there is a large double bedroom plus a super chic bathroom. One floor up, you come to this huge open space where the bespoke modern kitchen flows into the dining area and thence to a second lounge. It is a space designed to socialize in, have friends over and dine while perhaps the kids go upstairs to the library to read some Nietzsche or Schopenhauer or perhaps just flick through the easy guide to nuclear fission and bio-engineering. No wonder the people who owned this house were both teachers. Indeed, with the art work and décor that lines the walls, there is an air of genteel calm and learning in the air. Now it must be said between the kitchen and the library, there is actually another floor and on this floor, you have two more bedrooms, a study and another bathroom. There are details everywhere to delight the eye as many of the original features are retained which leaves the house with a powerful sense of authenticity. On the very top floor there is, as we said, the library with an open terrace as well as a greenhouse for growing anything that takes the fancy. And there are very modern features to this house such as, would you believe, underfloor-heating. So, at just €165,000, who would this wonderful, and wonderfully priced, property suit? Well perhaps a couple who wants to live in the embrace of the old town, who enjoy the feeling of age and culture in their surroundings, who have 2.4 kids and perhaps a cat, a penchant to saunter to the river and have a tapa and then a leisurely stroll home to find the aupair has put the 2.4 kids to bed and all they need to do is relax in the leafy courtyard and discuss the nature of life and consciousness. In fact the overriding impression this property gives is one of comfort and good taste, situated in a baroque neighborhood, near all the facilities, amenities, bars and supermarkets of this great town but also offering discreet privacy and a little touch of luxury.
