Residential areas are spread across the hillside around the old town. The area around the Sant Sebastià hermitage, higher up, has villas with gardens and panoramic coastal views, while the streets closer to the centre put the town's services within walking distance.
Investment Potential
Vilassar de Dalt is a main-residence market, with steady demand from families looking for a house with a garden 20 km from Barcelona. Protection of the hills limits growth towards the mountain, which keeps villas with views in the upper part of town scarce.
Mediterranean Living
The town's emblem is its castle, documented since 1262 and declared a historic-artistic monument in 1931, which holds one of the most notable private historical archives, with more than 8,000 parchments and 70 manuscripts. The municipality also preserves prehistoric dolmens, Roman kilns and the hermitage of Sant Sebastià.
Part of the municipality lies within the Serralada Litoral Park, with trails leading up into the hills from the town itself. The centre keeps its own shops and services, and the residential areas spread across the hillside facing the sea.
