Located in the centre of the village of Pradell de la Teixeta, in the Priorat region, the house is easily recognisable by its two distinctive large entrance porches. The porches were discovered during restoration work and are the reason the house has been known by this name for many years.
The porch on the left is the entrance to the rural house, while the porch on the right leads to the farm shop selling Priorat gourmet products.
The renovation of the house was carried out while preserving, as much as possible, all the structural elements characteristic of village houses from that era—wooden beams, stone walls, etc.—carefully exposing the original stone walls without going beyond what is appropriate. The stone also provides thermal inertia, which helps retain heat in the winter and keep the house cool in the summer. The finishes and details of the house have been crafted using high-quality materials—handmade terracotta flooring, wood, handcrafted ceramic sinks, etc.—all combined to create a final atmosphere that balances comfort, rustic charm, and modernity.
