Home details
On the outskirts of the charming town of Cadaqués along the Costa Brava sits the majestic Casa Lligat. This 10-bedroom villa is nestled in a 5-acre private park surrounded by pine and olive trees and faces the Cap de Creus natural park. With its breath-taking sea views, outdoor spaces and spectacular infinity pool, this haven of tranquillity offers extreme privacy and benefits from direct access to the sea.
Extending over 500m², Casa Lligat offers spacious living areas and can accommodate a maximum of 20 guests. Designed in 1962 by the well-known American architect Peter Harnden, the villa combines modernity, simplicity and high level comfort and refinement, with influences from both Californian style from the 1950’s and rustic Mediterranean style. The property has a rich history: for nearly 20 years, Dali’s personal manager, namely Captain Moore, lived in the house!
The one-storey villa perched on the rock high above the sea has two parts: the main house (4 bedrooms), and six exterior bedrooms with independent access, all connected with gorgeous Mediterranean patios and stone steps. The main house features an open-plan living/dining space with a sunken sofa area, fireplace, piano, and access to a terrace. A fully equipped kitchen with an island and bar seating opens to the interior patio. Outside, a heated infinity pool (please see Ts&Cs) can be found in it’s dedicated area with secure gates, providing peace of mind for those children, and a pool house, gardens, multiple terraces and dining areas for 12-14 guests leave you spoilt for choice for places to spend your time at the villa. Stone steps lead straight down to the seafront, adding to the magical serene feel this villa exudes.
