✍️ Description from the real estate agent

Lucas Fox presents Torre d’Amer, an extraordinary historic estate offering the rare privilege of acquiring an authentic castle with more than one thousand years of documented history. Located in the municipality of Amer, in the La Selva region of Girona, this fortified tower first appeared in historical records in 949 AD and is officially listed as a Bien Cultural de Interés Nacional (BCIN), a designation reserved for Spain’s most significant heritage properties.

Set on a private plot of almost one hectare, the estate is surrounded by nature and enjoys a remarkable sense of privacy. A private access road leads to the main residence, positioned in an elevated and peaceful setting with a south-facing orientation and open views across the surrounding landscape.

Unlike many historic properties that have been recreated or partially rebuilt, Torre d’Amer preserves its original medieval soul. Thick stone walls, a defensive layout, and its commanding position reflect its original purpose as a watchtower and place of protection. Through the centuries, the property has gracefully evolved for new uses while always retaining its identity and historic presence.

The estate offers 747 m² of built space, distributed between the castle, a traditional farmhouse, and an independent two-storey annex designed as a loft-style residence. These three buildings are currently separate, although they may be internally connected if desired, offering exceptional flexibility. In total, the property comprises seven bedrooms, four bathrooms, spacious rooms filled with character, a fireplace, and practical storage areas.

Currently arranged as three independent living spaces, the estate also benefits from an active tourist licence, allowing immediate use as either a remarkable private residence or a distinctive hospitality investment. Additional features include an 80,000-litre water storage tank, biomass heating system using pellets in the castle, and electricity supplied via solar panels. Natural light fills the interiors throughout the day, enhancing the warmth and authenticity of every space.

Perfectly balancing rural tranquillity with accessibility, the property is located just 25 minutes from Girona Airport, less than 30 minutes from the city of Girona, and a little over one hour from Barcelona. Torre d’Amer is far more than a property—it is a living piece of history, ready to continue its story for generations to come.
