Houses for Sale in Catalonia, Spain — Seafront Homes & Golf Villas with Mediterranean Views

Looking for houses for sale in Catalonia, Spain? This region offers one of Europe’s most iconic coastal landscapes, where pine-covered hills meet turquoise coves and golden beaches line the Mediterranean. From modern seaside villas and whitewashed fishermen’s houses to designer new builds with private pools and golf-front villas, Catalonia presents a rare chance to own a home that combines daily lifestyle benefits with long-term investment value.

Why Buy a House in Catalonia by the Sea or Near Golf Courses?

Catalonia concentrates some of Spain’s most diverse and prestigious coastal property markets. Sea-facing homes provide privacy and architectural character, together with immediate access to nature and convenient proximity to Barcelona and Girona. Owners enjoy direct access to beaches, marinas and coastal trails, as well as sea views from terraces, gardens and infinity pools. The Mediterranean climate brings more than 300 days of sunshine annually, and stable infrastructure ensures hospitals, international schools and airports are always close at hand. For golf enthusiasts, Catalonia combines seafront living with some of Europe’s top courses, offering homes that blend leisure, sport and Mediterranean lifestyle.

Where to Find Seafront Houses and Golf Villas in Catalonia

On the Costa Brava, destinations such as Calella de Palafrugell, Llafranc, S’Agaró and Cadaqués offer cliffside villas, beachfront homes and timeless fishing villages with strict planning rules that protect natural views and property values. For those who enjoy golf, the region is also home to prestigious courses such as PGA Catalunya near Girona and Golf Platja de Pals, where villas offer both sea views and direct fairway access.

On the Costa del Maresme just north of Barcelona, towns like Sant Vicenç de Montalt, Sant Pol de Mar and Cabrera de Mar provide luxury homes minutes from the city, with panoramic terraces and private gardens. The area is also known for access to elite golf clubs such as Real Club de Golf El Prat and Sant Cugat Golf, making it an ideal choice for families and professionals seeking seafront living close to the city.

To the south, the Costa Dorada near Tarragona features family-friendly seafront homes beside golden sand beaches, offering affordability and year-round living. Several of its residential communities integrate golf resorts, combining beachfront properties with on-site sporting and leisure facilities.

Within the Barcelona coastal zone, properties in Montgat and Badalona are rare but highly prized, offering urban seafront living just 15–20 minutes from the city centre.

Types of Seafront Houses and Golf Villas for Sale

The Catalonia market offers contemporary villas with pools, spacious terraces and open-plan interiors, alongside restored fishermen’s houses set just steps from the water. Historic Mediterranean homes with white façades and balconies provide unique character, while boutique new builds feature modern systems, gated security and energy efficiency. Golf villas situated within or adjacent to prestigious resorts combine seafront lifestyle with access to championship courses. For investors, some beachfront properties come with tourist rental licences, ensuring immediate income potential.
