A Private Penthouse Escape above Barcelona
This sky high penthouse offers the best of big city life with a blissfully peaceful escape above the buzz of Barcelona. We love the clever retractable wall designs that transform and expand the ultramodern interiors and the exterior terraces with panoramic views.
Housed on the eighth floor in central Barcelona, this penthouse apartment is the rare urban find that can provide both breezy private interiors and expansive sunny exterior spaces all with 360-degree views above the city.
Spacious and modern, the apartment features an effortless flow between the spaces with a unique flexible floor plan that can be adapted to accommodate up to four guests. With a mix of cool white finishes, bold black detailing and unique lighting accents offset by warm wood floors, the interiors have a futuristic quality that's invitingly modern.
Laid out to take advantage of the views, the sun-splashed interiors feature a main lounge overlooking the city with the sleek central kitchen and dining island anchoring the room and two en-suite bedrooms on either side with slide away walls that allow one of the bedrooms to double as living space.
The main terrace opens out from the kitchen with loungers and dining for four while the larger rooftop terrace above offers a private urban oasis for lounging with dazzling views over the city.
Additional features
Wifi throughout, Smart TV with satellite and an AppleTV with a selection of movies and music, laundry facilities and a dishwasher, air conditioning and heating system, rain shower and Malin+Goetz bathroom amenities.
The elevator doesn’t go to the last level, so you will have to take the elevator and then walk up one floor to access the penthouse.
Around
The Sant Antoni part of the Eixample district is an area that has reinvented itself as one of the premier dining destinations of Barcelona with world class cuisine as well as a colorful and and quirky area of shops, bars and cultural spaces in neighboring Raval.
You're a short stroll away from Passeig de Gracia and Rambla Catalunya, 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.
A seaside town of celebrated artistic, culinary and cultural treasures, Barcelona is home to stunning Gothic, Medieval, Romanesque and Modernist masterpieces all housed along the sparkling Mediterranean, with the forest covered Collserola Hills as a backdrop.
