This superb property has an outstanding location in Barcelona and is part of an integral renovation project in a regal estate dating back to 1910 with exclusive luxury flats. The building is on the corner of Carrer Girona, which is already being transformed into a pedestrian street and the works are practically finished, and Avinguda Diagonal, which is being transformed into a boulevard-like avenue with a large pedestrian area, green zones and bicycle lanes, significantly reducing vehicle traffic. You will be able to enjoy the best of Barcelona in an incomparable setting: in the heart of Eixample, very close to Paseo de Gracia, the city centre and all the shops and services.
This property, on the 2nd floor, has 128.4 built interior sqm, 17.04 sqm of communal area and 2 balconies totalling 4.7 sqm. As it’s a corner building, it has a great natural light, which is unusual in the area, and unique views with a great depth. An entrance hall gives way to the hallway, which leads us to the spacious 29 sqm living-dining room, which is very bright and has a balcony facing the street. The kitchen is separate and next to it there is a utility room.
The night area has 3 bedrooms. The sensational master suite has a dressing area at the entrance, which distributes the private bathroom and the bedroom. It has a balcony overlooking the street. In addition, there are 2 interior double bedrooms and a separate bathroom.
The flat has the highest quality materials and finishings, as well as an interior design with attention to detail that will combine the classic elements of the regal estate buildings with the most modern. Large spaces and brightness will be important, achieving a balance between traditional elements such as the restored Catalan vaulted ceilings and the comfort and amenities of a new building: underfloor heating and hot-cold air conditioning powered by aerothermics (the latest technology in air conditioning systems that produces energy savings of between 60% and 70% compared to conventional systems), top-of-the-range Siemens appliances, natural wood parquet floors, entrance door with security lock, built-in wardrobes, porcelain tiling on the bathroom walls, Italian designer taps, LED lighting, fibre optic connection, Internet and TV signal sockets, etc.
The building, which has been fully refurbished, has 2 lifts (the original one restored respecting its wooden cabin with a new mechanism and a completely new one), a concierge, an area for charging electric bicycles and a private modernist-vintage style gym with Catalan vault, hydraulic floors and a full bathroom.
The extensive main façade of the building, as well as the many interior courtyards and the rear façade, provide the building with excellent lighting and ventilation. The unusual distance to the buildings parallel to the façade further enhances the feeling and perception of spaciousness. As this is a modernist building with important historical value, the interior design team has prioritised the recovery of some of the original elements. For example, a complete restoration and rehabilitation of the modernist stuccoes of the staircase core has been carried out; and in the independent vestibules, recovered hydraulic mosaic tiles will be installed to maintain the historical value of the property. In addition, the exterior joinery has been replaced with wooden windows and balconies with thermal break and laminated insulating glass.
