Are you looking for a real estate agency in Balmes?

Balmes is a wide avenue in the heart of Barcelona, named after the Catalan philosopher and cleric Jaume Balmes. Thinking of buying, selling or renting a home in one of the best areas of the Catalan capital? Then BCN Advisors can be your best partner.

As the map shows, together with Muntaner it is the longest avenue running from sea to mountain. It starts at Pelai street, crosses Eixample and Sant Gervasi, and reaches John F. Kennedy square, where Avinguda Tibidabo begins.

Balmes district at a glance

Balmes is about 4 km long and runs through Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, Gràcia and Eixample; the avenue marks the boundary between the right and left sides of the Eixample. It is a busy thoroughfare linking the sea and the mountains.

Central location

Balmes sits in central Barcelona, close to Casa Batlló and Casa Milà. It is only about a 15-minute walk to the city centre and roughly 2 km from the Gràcia neighbourhood. You can also take the suburban railway: the journey takes around 7 minutes and covers about 2 km. Operated by FGC Catalunya, trains from central Barcelona to Balmes depart from Plaça Catalunya.


Shopping and retail

The area between Passeig de Gràcia and Balmes is one of the city’s main shopping districts. Along Balmes you will find small specialist boutiques, interior design shops and stylish clothing stores with a distinctive character.


Cinema and museum

Balmes is home to one of the city’s top cinemas, Multicines Balmes, which sometimes doubles as a theatre. It is known for subtitled films in the original language and midweek deals. The Museu del Modernisme de Barcelona is also on Balmes, with modernist paintings, sculpture and furniture plus temporary exhibitions. It is the only museum in Europe dedicated solely to Catalan Modernisme.
