5 reasons to move to a house on the Costa Brava in times of COVID

COVID-19 has accelerated the trend toward Teleworking. A factor that is allowing many families to move and choose a different place to live. Like early retirements, which in many cases are accelerated and leading to the start of a new phase outside the big cities

In both cases, preferences are directed towards the same areas: the beach and the mountains. Two spaces that provide an exceptional quality of life. Proof of this is that the Costa Brava is becoming one of the favourite destinations for people who nowadays reside in the centre of large cities or who live in a property without outdoor spaces.

If you are one of those who have already made this decision and have finally decided to start a new life near the sea, we invite you to discover some houses for sale on the Costa Brava that may be of interest to you.

Below we share with you the 5 most important reasons that convinced many families to move to this idyllic place.

1. The ample availability of properties

The Costa Brava offers a large number of properties for sale in various beautiful places, with a wide choice between villages by the sea or near the mountains. And not only that! This offer is characterized by houses of different types, so that you can find the one that best suits your preferences: houses with sea view, farms, villas, estates … The variety is great!

2. Being able to enjoy outdoor spaces

The great advantage of living in a typical house on the Costa Brava is that you can enjoy and make the most out of the time you will spend in the outdoor spaces that it offers. The vast majority of these houses are characterized by being built on large lots. Gardens with pools, verandas, terraces, roof terraces … Can you imagine the quality of life that this implies?

3. Privacy and tranquility

The Costa Brava has residential areas where people enjoy a lot of privacy. A characteristic that many families ask for when they are looking for housing. The same happens with tranquility and as there are not a lot of excessively crowded areas, this second requirement is more than fulfilled.

4. The proximity to the beach and the mountains

Without doubt, one of the reasons that most people fall in love with this area. And it is of no doubt that the beauty of the mountains and the proximity to the sea are two factors that attract and convince interested people. There is no better life than the one that is offered near the Mediterranean and in the middle of nature.

5. Good weather in both summer and winter

Weather is another decisive factor. The good climate that the entire Mediterranean coast enjoys is perfect for living throughout the year. Neither excessive heat in summer, nor extreme cold in winter. Its mild climate makes the Costa Brava the ideal place to spend long periods of time without any problem. In addition, the vast majority of properties are equipped for living all year round, with heating, air conditioning, and in many cases, a fireplace.
