HOUSE WITH PRIVATE POOL BY THE CANAL IN EMPURIABRAVA (COSTA BRAVA) — up to 4 people Bonica is a single-storey villa, renovated in 2017, sitting right on one of the canals that give Empuriabrava its name. It has 90 m² designed for four people looking for peace, water and good views without giving up a walk to the beach. The house sits on a dead-end street, in a residential area of villas where traffic is calm, so the mood is quiet from the moment you park. INSIDE THE HOUSE. Everything is on the ground floor, no stairs to deal with. The living-dining room has a table for eating in and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels (in French and German). The kitchen, with a utility area, comes equipped with an oven, microwave, freezer, dishwasher, electric coffee maker and a three-ring ceramic hob: enough to cook without complications. Both bedrooms are doubles and both open directly onto the terrace and the pool, which you'll appreciate on summer mornings. The single bathroom has a shower, and there's a separate toilet. As extra equipment you have an iron and free wifi throughout the house. OUTSIDE. The plot is fenced and has a garden with trees, plus a wilder patch that gives the whole thing a natural feel. The private pool is L-shaped, 8 x 4 metres, and open seasonally, from 1 April to 30 October. Outside you'll also find a patio, pergola, garden furniture, sun loungers, outdoor shower and a covered balcony with views over the canal and, in the distance, the mountains. Since the house is on the canal, there's a private mooring available on request, so if you arrive by boat you'll have somewhere to leave it. WHERE YOU ARE. Bonica is in the Medes neighbourhood, 1 km from the centre of Empuriabrava and 900 metres from La Rubina sandy beach.
