Classic meets contemporary to exciting effect in this apartment in the heart of Barcelona. We like the unique mix of period and contemporary design and the warm sophisticated style.  

Located in the heart of Barcelona at the edge of the elegant Eixample District and the historic Gothic Quarter, this charming penthouse offers chic sophistication and easy access to the best of the city. Situated on the third floor of this renovated Art Nouveau building, and overlooking the sights and sounds of the city below, you are ensconsed in a peaceful hideaway above the bustle of the city. 

The interiors have been renovated with warm earth tones and modern finishes paired with rustic exposed brick and classic details from the buildings early period including the French windows and doors that open out to the views. The main living area is cozy and inviting with the tall bay window overlooking Ronda Universidad and a comfortable and chic mix of modern and traditional pieces including furnishings designed by Roberto Barbieri. The room shares the space with a sleek open-plan kitchen and  dining area for four.

Each of the two bedrooms has French balconies with original doors and both have beautiful king-sized four poster beds decked out in crisp white, embroidered linen and soundproof doors for a peaceful night. 

This is a chic and welcoming retreat in the heart of Barcelona.

Located at the edge of the elegant Eixample neighborhood, a short stroll away from Passeig de Gracia and Rambla Catalunya, the street is praised by locals for being one of the nicest in central Barcelona. Quiet and walkable, there is an excellent selection of good restaurants, shops and galleries. 

Sometimes referred to as the Cuadrado de Oro, it's the epicenter for modernism in Barcelona and features the work of modernist architects Antoní Gaudi (the famous La Pedrera is just a short walk from the apartment), Enric Sagnier and Doménech I Muntaner. Gayxample, the gay district, is also in Eixample and is a lively, cosmopolitan area.
