The Camí de Miralpeix: Catalonia’s Oasis of Luxury
Imagine for a moment living in a modern mansion, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, with breathtaking views, close to the sea, and where peace reigns in every corner. This vision of an idyllic location comes true in the Garraf region of Catalonia, specifically on the Camí de Miralpeix, which holds the title of “the most expensive street in Catalonia.” This exclusive enclave is located in Sitges, and acquiring a property in this coveted area comes at an average cost of around 2.7 million euros.
Camí de Miralpeix, situated on the western edge of Sitges, offers an unparalleled natural environment from where exclusive views of the Mediterranean Sea can be enjoyed. This space is reserved exclusively for luxurious mansions and houses, sharing the neighborhood with hotels of the same caliber and a prestigious golf club.
Despite its secluded location, most services, shops, and supermarkets can be found in the urban center of Sitges, a municipality with over 30,000 inhabitants that relies on tourism and culture for its economy. The hotel sector and the Sitges Film Festival stand out as fundamental pillars of the cultural scene.
It is worth mentioning that the average salary in Sitges hovers around 2,100 euros, surpassing the national average of 1,700 euros, demonstrating the economic strength of this locality.
Sitges not only attracts tourists but also acts as a magnet for celebrities. For instance, the legendary footballer Lionel Messi acquired the Hotel MiM in Sitges for 30 million euros, showing his interest in settling in this picturesque town during his final years as a player for FC Barcelona. Additionally, figures like Eusebio, Txiqui Beguiristain, and the Brazilian Romário, all former members of the Dream Team, also chose Sitges as their home at one point.
On the international stage, Sitges has been chosen as the backdrop for music videos by some of the world’s most influential artists, such as Shakira and Ed Sheeran. Nationally, the Estopa duo and actress Penélope Cruz have selected this charming coastal municipality to carry out their artistic projects.
Although the Camí de Miralpeix holds the title of the most expensive street in Catalonia, it falls far behind the national ranking. The top spot is comfortably occupied by the Coto Zagaleta development in Benahavís, Málaga, where the average price of a home exceeds 10.7 million euros. Doing a simple calculation, with the money you could use to purchase four mansions in Sitges, you could buy one in the aforementioned Andalusian development.
The second and third positions are also in Málaga, specifically in Marbella. Carrer Mozart has an average price of 7.9 million euros, while Carrer Osa Menor stands at 7.1 million euros. The last two positions in this exclusive top 5 belong to Madrid. El Camino de la Fuente, located in La Moraleja, has an average price of 6.9 million euros, and Paseo de los Lagos, in Pozuelo de Alarcón, is at 6.1 million euros.
The Camí de Miralpeix undoubtedly stands as a gem of luxury in Catalonia, where exclusivity and the beauty of the surroundings come together to create a unique place in the world of luxury real estate.
