A modern, Passivhaus in the middle of nature.

This beautiful estate is located on a hill (Servians), outside of Alforja, at about 400m elevation. Alforja is a rural village that is approximately 20 minutes by car from both the nearest beaches of the Costa Daurada, as well as from the cities of Cambrils, Salou, Reus and Tarragona. Towards inland, in 15 minutes you will reach the Priorat wine region with its beautiful mountains. Also the wall climbing paradise of Siurana, La Mussara, Arbolí and Montsant are all within 15 to 30 minutes. Barcelona and the airport of Barcelona are both 1.5 hours driving distance. Living in this estate will give you direct contact with nature. It is located right on a popular hiking and mountain biking track, surrounded by forests. The land has 2.2 hectares and has been prepared for permaculture farming. The land includes 2 water deposits (20k and 15k liters), which can both be used for farm and house. Rainwater is collected through 2 roofs and stored in both deposits in a closed loop system with a solar-based water pump so no collected rainwater goes to waste. The land has one existing water well but another well can be dug 30m deep. The construction of the house was finished in 2022. This is a Passivhaus construction of 85 m2. The Passivhaus concept is the world leading standard in energy-efficient building construction. A Passivhaus requires as little as 10 percent of the energy used by typical European buildings – meaning an energy savings of up to 90 percent. It is affordable, comfortable and sustainable. Since this is off-grid with 9 solar panels and 10kWh of lithium ion batteries, there are no monthly bills. The septic system is modern and uses bacteria to shrink the black materials (only needs cleaning every 3 to 4 years) and both gray/black water outputs clean water into the environment. In front of the house there is a 40 m2, shaded terrace. As you walk into the house, you will reach the main open living area of about 60 m2. It consists of a kitchen (by Santos), dining, living room, tv area and office. This area has large window-doors which can be opened entirely. In the middle of the living room area there is a hanging glass fireplace with a chimney that provides heating and cosiness to the area. The house has two queen-sized bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. One of the toilets is a “smart toilet” with functions to clean your behind for males and females. One of the bathrooms also has a sauna. Smart home features include smart lights (Philips Hue), iPhone/Android-based solar panels/electricity monitoring app and a home-based weather station (temp, rain, wind). The owners of the house will be able to control these from their mobile phones even if you are on holiday. Outside in the garden you find an infinity pool surrounded by a solarium deck, exterior kitchen, storage room (10sqm), composting toilet, and large climbing gym with 4 adjustable walls, 40cm crash pads and a campus area. These are perfect for climbers or people who are looking for a new hobby to discover. The recent owners have built a vegetable garden, which is self- sufficient. It collects the water from rainfall in a way that it does not need additional watering. On the land there are about 200 olive trees. It provides the opportunity to either sell or make olive oil and olives for the household. From many points of the estate you can contemplate the surrounding mountains of Prades, Priorat and also the sea. This estate will provide a happy home to whomever will have the opportunity to live in it.
