Description
Exclusive designer-renovated property in the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter
In the oldest heart of Barcelona, where every stone whispers centuries of history, lies this exceptional 120 m² property occupying an entire floor of a historic 1850 building. Completely renovated with a refined architectural and aesthetic vision, this home combines the best of contemporary design with deep respect for noble Catalan tradition: original volta catalana ceilings, natural wood finishes, and wrought iron details that bring warmth, distinction, and character.
Currently laid out as two independent apartments, the property can easily be converted back into a single home thanks to interior connecting doors. This layout offers high rental profitability through legal, short-term lets — a highly sought-after format due to its location in one of the most touristic and secure areas of Barcelona.
However, it also offers the possibility of being transformed into a single-family residence by removing the automated entry, making it an ideal option as a main residence or an exclusive pied-à-terre.
The crown jewel of this property is its terrace of over 120 m² — a true urban privilege with views of the majestic and iconic Gothic Cathedral of Barcelona, dedicated to Santa Eulalia, the city’s patron saint. A 13-year-old martyr who defended her faith with words against the Roman Empire, her story lives on in the cathedral’s walls and the medieval layout of the Gothic Quarter, once the Roman Barcino.
Prime Location
The property is nestled among charming, history-filled streets, just steps away from some of the city’s most iconic landmarks:
• The Jewish Quarter (El Call), with its maze of narrow, mysterious alleys
• Santa Maria del Pi, with its majestic Gothic façade
• Sant Felip Neri Square, one of the most romantic and moving spots in the quarter
• La Rambla, Via Laietana, and the nearby Passeig de Colom, connecting to the sea and the port
• And of course, the magnificent Cathedral — the spiritual heart of the quarter and a true city icon
The building, shared with only two neighbors, also offers the rare future possibility of installing an elevator — a standout feature in the area. Large street-facing windows provide constant natural light, and the automatic entry and alarm system ensure peace of mind at all times.
An urban haven with soul, history, and profitability.
Investing here means becoming part of something greater than just a property: it means acquiring a living fragment of Barcelona, where every corner tells a legend, every street invites wonder, and every sunset from your terrace becomes a moment to remember.
