The historic villa that played a starring role in “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” — Woody Allen’s 2008 romantic drama — has come to market, offering a rare opportunity to live inside a movie scene for roughly $28.3 million.

Perched atop Putxet Hill near Barcelona’s Tibidabo mountain, the nearly 11,000-square-foot estate served as the home of Patricia Clarkson’s character in the film, and played host to much of its sun-drenched intrigue.

Clarkson’s played the role of Judy — a distant relative of Vicky (played by Rebecca Hall). Hall’s character stayed with her and her husband at the Spanish abode in the film.

The residence was designed in 1917 by Enric Sagnier, a celebrated Catalan architect whose work blends modernism, art nouveau and classical Spanish forms.

Though less internationally famous than his contemporary Antoni Gaudí, whose work around the city draws visitors from around the world, Sagnier left a deep imprint on Barcelona’s architectural landscape.

The villa is rich in detail and atmosphere, with Plateresque flourishes like arched windows, ornate ironwork and a dramatic oak entrance.

Inside, the main level opens into a grand foyer that flows into a nearly 800-square-foot living and dining salon.

Sunlight pours into a long gallery, leading out to a terrace and a pool carved into the rocky terrain of Mount Putxet.

The property includes seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms, including a primary suite that spans much of the second floor, with dual dressing rooms, a 550-square-foot bedroom and a private terrace overlooking the city.
