In the vibrant heart of Banyoles, just steps from the historic Plaça Major, lies Estada Històrica, a stunning property that seamlessly combines timeless charm with modern convenience. This tastefully renovated home, the work of skilled interior architects, retains its historical character while offering all the comforts of contemporary living. Perfect for long-term stays, Estada Històrica accommodates up to four people comfortably, with an additional room available for visitors, making it ideal for families, athletes, or professionals seeking temporary housing in the Province of Girona.

A Warm Welcome to Estada Històrica

The entrance to Estada Històrica is both grand and inviting. You step through large, rustic wooden shutters that can remain open during your stay, welcoming natural light and fresh air into the property. These shutters lead to elegant glass doors, which open into a warm and welcoming foyer. Here, a cozy sitting area awaits, complete with a sofa, a television, and thoughtfully designed small furnishings for practical use. Wall-mounted bike hangers provide a convenient storage solution for cycling enthusiasts, blending functionality with the home’s aesthetic.

From the foyer, a set of stairs descends into the property’s historical stone wine cellar. This atmospheric space, currently empty, is a unique feature that nods to the house’s rich past. Meanwhile, a short flight of stairs ascends to the elevated kitchen area, a centerpiece of the home.

Living Spaces Designed for Comfort and Charm

The kitchen combines rustic charm with modern functionality, featuring an open fireplace, a large dining table, and state-of-the-art appliances, including an induction hob, oven, microwave, and essential cooking tools. Whether you’re preparing a hearty meal after a day exploring the region or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, this space is designed for comfort and conviviality.

The Sleeping Quarters

The first floor houses the sleeping quarters, exuding warmth and tranquility. A central hallway provides access to two bright and spacious bedrooms. The master bedroom features a queen-size bed, while the second bedroom offers two single beds, which can be arranged separately or together. Both rooms include open wardrobes and are adorned with original flooring—some with traditional Catalan baldosas hidráulicas, others with terracotta tiles—that speak to the home’s heritage. Soft white tones, natural wood, and carefully curated décor create a calming atmosphere, making these rooms a serene retreat after a busy day.

The first floor also features a large bathroom, designed for both style and practicality. This luxurious space includes a walk-in shower, double sinks, and ample storage for toiletries.
