Farmhouses for sale in Spain

Buy Farmhouses in Spain

Farmhouses are usually intended for agricultural or livestock farming. They are typically located on rustic land, isolated from urban areas of cities, a feature that makes them stand out from traditional and conventional homes. They are very common in most autonomous communities of Spain, especially the farmhouses in Catalonia.

Generally, farmhouses are oriented to the south, aiming to receive the maximum number of sunlight hours. Their height per floor does not usually exceed 5 meters. The layout of these types of homes was highly dependent on the use given to them. It was most common for the ground floor to be dedicated to agricultural or livestock farming, while the upstairs was intended for residential use, many times as homes in the mountains. For farmhouses with more than two floors, the last one was often used as a barn or storage room. All kinds of materials have been used for their construction, which have evolved over the years and vary depending on the region where the farmhouse is located. Initially, untreat stone was used, especially in mountainous areas. They were assembled with clay, and later lime appeared, finally being superseded by cement.
