description

Located in the heart of Poble Sec, one of Barcelonas most characterful, vibrant and culturally rich neighbourhoods, this beautifully renovated penthouse occupies the fifth floor of an elegant historic building dating from 1930, complete with lift and a communal rooftop terrace. The property offers approximately 95 m² of built area and around 86 m² of usable interior space, combining the distinctive character of traditional Barcelona architecture with the comfort and functionality of a thoughtfully designed contemporary home. The apartment has undergone a complete renovation with particular attention paid to preserving and enhancing its original architectural details. Traditional Catalan vaulted ceilings with exposed wooden beams, restored brick walls and carefully retained original interior doors give the property warmth, texture and a sense of authenticity rarely found in newer developments. The daytime area is centred around a spacious and exceptionally bright exterior living and dining room, filled with natural light and opening directly onto a charming private balcony. The contemporary open-plan kitchen is fully integrated into the living space and features a stylish central island with a breakfast bar, creating a sociable layout that works equally well for everyday living and entertaining. The sleeping area comprises three separate bedrooms. The main bedroom forms a comfortable private suite with its own bathroom, dressing area and access to a bright glazed gallery. This additional space is particularly versatile and would make an ideal home office, reading area or peaceful retreat. The remaining two bedrooms, one medium-sized and one single, provide flexibility for family members, guests or additional workspace. A second full bathroom serves these rooms and the rest of the apartment. The property is equipped with individual gas heating via a boiler as well as air conditioning, ensuring comfort throughout the year. Its location makes it easy to enjoy many of Barcelonas most appealing areas on foot. Montjuïc, Plaça dEspanya, the city centre and the waterfront are all within easy reach. Poble Sec itself is known for its lively yet authentic atmosphere, excellent restaurants and tapas bars, traditional theatres, local markets and independent shops. Excellent transport links are provided by nearby L2 and L3 metro stations, numerous bus routes and convenient road connections via Avinguda Paral·lel and the Ronda del Litoral, providing easy access to the rest of Barcelona and the airport.
