description

Casa Ricart is a listed stately apartment from the 19th century, the work of architect Josep Font i Gumà. It is located in the centre, next to the Rambla Principal and has been completely renovated and meticulously decorated by a private interior design company. Its architect, Josep Font i Gumà (1859-1922), was a renowned architect from Vilanova who built well-known buildings such as the Xalet Miramar or del Nin or the Pirelli factory in Vilanova, the Hospital del Redós de Sant Josep i Sant Pere in Sant Pere de Ribes or the Hospital de Sant Joan in Sitges. In 1901, Josep Maria Ricart requested planning permission to carry out renovations in the building, according to the project of Josep Font i Gumà, hence the house is known as Casa Ricart. The property occupies most of the main floor of the building and has several rooms that can be used as the new owner prefers. The current design has a layout of four double bedrooms, two bathroom, a large entrance hall, a living-dining room with an open kitchen and an impressive 95 m² terrace made up of three rooms next to the dining room. The large main bedroom has its own bathroom. The wall that doubles as the headboard of the bed is made of original pebbled stone, glazed and illuminated. It has a large number of original elements that offer an exclusive period atmosphere. Among them we find in the living room the original decorative fireplace built in marble, as well as wooden beams, plaster rosettes, original wooden flooring, Roca slate flooring and cabinet-making interior carpentry. These period elements are combined with modern elements such as quality taps, LED linear lighting and other components that provide comfort such as heating by mains gas radiators and air conditioning. In the bedrooms, custom-made wardrobes have been arranged to better adapt the spaces The property has an updated tourist license that allows the tourist rental of the property. La Finca is located on a semi-pedestrian street, making it quieter and less noisy. Rarely does an architectural gem like this come on the market, making it a unique opportunity to acquire a part of Vilanova's modernist heritage.
