His company Alebian XXI, had already acquired part of the gardens in May of 2015 and maintained for two years a purchase option on the buildings.

In 2015 he managed to acquire for 1.2 million the first piece of the property, the sumptuous romantic gardens that he has already begun to rehabilitate based on a meticulous gardening project to give back the splendor of the sixteenth century. The mayor, Andreu Francisco, called for the mediation of the current Marques de Alella, Juan Peláez, a prestigious lawyer who has been expert in this type of negotiations, who has managed to revive the investment after convincing the owners to promote a Transaction that until now had rejected without apparent justification.

Once the sale has been formalized, according to the mayor, the urban improvement plan to be approved by the plenary will be processed, a process that can last for a year and be approved in the autumn of 2017. The construction project and extension of the street Marià Estrada, which can be completed in two years, so that the luxurious hotel could be operational in 2020. The catalog of local heritage protects the entire building, with the exception of two floors added in the fifties that could be Knocked over The new hotel, according to Andreu Francisco, will be a luxury five star establishment, which will be projected with a therapeutic offer of hydrotherapy as a differential fact.

The estate of Cal Governador, in its totality has greater extension than the Parc de la Ciutadella in Barcelona. It occupies 4.2 hectares and 4,553 square meters of buildings. It is classified as a property of local interest, so its exterior structure is protected. It includes inside the farmhouse Can Xeco Monnar, which will also be rehabilitated, several sports courts and a lake. The mayor, Andreu Francisco, showed yesterday his satisfaction “for what it supposes for the economic impulse of the population”.

The future hotel in the estate of Cal Governador, will be the first hotel business of the magnate Sukharev, with real estate interests and health centers in Spain. In Siberia he has interests in the food sector.
