Located on one of the most iconic and characterful streets in Barcelona's historic centre, in El Born, is this extraordinary flat, renovated with great aesthetic sensitivity. With 104 built interior sqm, it occupies the real second floor of a historic building dating from 1900 and represents a perfect blend of the charm of the original architecture and the comfort of a carefully executed contemporary renovation. It's just 200 metres from Parc de la Ciutadella, Barcelona's largest green space, a place where you can get back to nature right in the heart of the city.

From the very first moment, the property captivates with the authenticity of its restored and enhanced original features. The high ceilings with exposed wooden beams, the warm natural wooden floors and the impressive stone walls, which form part of Barcelona's ancient city walls, lend a unique character and an extraordinary heritage value that is hard to find on the current market. All this is complemented by double-glazed wooden joinery, ensuring excellent thermal and acoustic insulation.

The flat is equipped with heating by gas radiators and air conditioning by split. It's sold furnished.

The building currently has no lift, but a project has been approved and around €40,000 has been raised through a monthly contribution of €50; by approximately 2028, all the funds required for its installation will be in place. The building has an accessible communal roof terrace.

The area surrounding this flat boasts restaurants, shops, markets, cultural venues and excellent public transport links, allowing you to fully enjoy the Barcelona lifestyle. Furthermore, the beach and the seafront promenade are just a few minutes' walk away, adding further appeal to this exclusive property.
