The traditional stone house known as “La Facina” was constructed in 1949 and acquired by the current owners in 1965. The property has retained its original rustic character and is recognised for its historical and architectural significance, reflecting the region’s traditional rural heritage. Its architecture successfully combines the authenticity of historic construction with the requirements of comfortable contemporary living.
The property is accessed via a spacious stone-built porch, serving as a covered parking area and wood store. This area also accommodates the laundry room (5.75 m²), from which the main living spaces are entered.
A particularly noteworthy feature is the historic wine cellar, accessed via an internal staircase. This space bears witness to the building’s original use for wine production and storage and represents an important element of its protected heritage value.
The ground floor is centred around a 32.5 m² living and dining room, well suited to family gatherings and social occasions. The 10.10 m² kitchen is equipped with an open fireplace and a traditional wood-fired oven, allowing for cooking in keeping with historic methods. A shower room (3.80 m²) completes this level.
A carefully preserved solid oak staircase leads to the upper floor, where four generously proportioned double bedrooms are located. All rooms benefit from ample natural light and enjoy open views across the surrounding countryside.
Heritage Features
The house’s windows are fitted with coloured leaded glass, creating distinctive light effects throughout the interior during the day and a particularly atmospheric ambience in the evening. The property’s distinctive architecture has inspired several artists, who have captured “La Facina” in oil paintings, underlining its cultural and artistic relevance.
Location
The property is situated directly adjacent to the Sant Llorenç del Munt i l’Obac Natural Park, offering a rare combination of protected natural surroundings and proximity to the village centre. The centre of Sant Llorenç Savall is within walking distance and provides essential amenities, including a medical centre, pharmacy, supermarkets, as well as schools and nurseries.
