Stone walls, wooden beams, and centuries of history: a village house in the heart of Montferri, just minutes from the Cistercian monastery of Santes Creus. The house has bags of character, having kept its traditional rustic feel throughout the renovation, original exposed stone walls and wooden beam ceilings have been lovingly treated and preserved rather than stripped out. The property is arranged over three floors and comes with an outdoor covered courtyard and rear access for parking. Stepping in on the ground floor, you're greeted by a spacious, cool entrance hall, from which the stairs lead up to the floors above, while the room itself opens onto the living-dining room. This, in turn, connects to the kitchen and leads straight out to an outdoor terrace with a bathroom, followed by a small garden area, covered at the far end, which houses a summer kitchen and barbecue, a laundry area, and a large rear gate providing access and use as a covered carport. The first floor houses three bedrooms, one internal, and two facing outwards, one overlooking the village's main street and the other taking in views over the woods, fields, orchards and mountains of the Alt Camp. Next to the bedrooms on this same floor is a full bathroom with a shower. Up on the second floor sits the old loft space, now converted and refurbished into a large open room with views over both sides of the house, ready for whatever you need, a home office, playroom, snug, or even, if you fancy, a bedroom. Set right in the village centre on Calle Mayor itself, the house stands out for the quality of its refurbishment, particularly the fully renewed pitched roof, with old materials swapped out for new ones to ensure the house stays secure and watertight for years to come. The lovely village of Montferri is known for its peace and quiet and its easy reach of Valls and Tarragona, but its real claim to fame is the stunning hermitage designed by modernist architect J.M. Jujol, a disciple of Antoni Gaudí, who set out to build a small sanctuary dedicated to the Virgin of Montserrat using materials sourced from the local area, stones and pebbles from the River Gaià and coal from the old, nearby railway stations, to achieve a striking visual likeness, in both grey colouring and rounded form, to the Montserrat mountains themselves. There's no question that this house, tucked away in this unique corner of the Alt Camp, surrounded by vineyards and olive groves at the foot of the River Gaià, has everything you'd need whether you're looking to live here or invest, being in remarkably good condition and set among increasingly popular scenic spots and tourist routes across the province of Tarragona. Don't miss the chance to come and see it for yourself, its condition, its setting, just a stone's throw from the AP2 motorway and a 30-minute drive from Tarragona city centre.
