Can Bordoi, Noucentisme farmhouse in Llinars del Vallès, Spain.
Can Bordoi is a Noucentisme-style farmhouse in Llinars del Vallès with a rectangular layout and a prominent square tower at its center. The tower features a pyramid-shaped roof, and a glazed gallery on the first floor serves as a balcony overlooking the courtyard.
The original farmhouse dates to the 13th century and appears in census records from 1553 under the name 'en Bordoy'. In the early 20th century, architect Marcel·lí Coquillat redesigned it, transforming the structure to reflect Noucentisme principles.
The name refers to a family that shaped the local area over generations. The way the farmhouse connects living and working spaces still reflects how rural families organized their lives.
The property sits along the B-510 road between Argentona and Llinars del Vallès, making it straightforward to locate. Visitors can explore agricultural and educational activities that show how work and life functioned on a traditional farmstead.
Beyond the main building stand separate structures including a chapel and a round viewpoint topped with an umbrella-shaped roof. These additions show how farming families once created their own religious and gathering spaces on the land.
