€1,580,000
Description
In the very heart of the prestigious Quadrat d'Or, within a beautifully restored historic building, lies this remarkable modernist residence, an exceptional opportunity to shape a home defined by character, scale, and architectural heritage. Just moments from Avinguda Diagonal and a short stroll from Passeig de Gràcia, its location places you at the very center of Barcelona’s most refined urban landscape.
Positioned on the noble “Principal” floor, this corner apartment immediately conveys a sense of grandeur and possibility. High ceilings elevate the space, while its predominantly exterior orientation, bathed in eastern and southern light, creates an atmosphere of openness and brightness throughout. With a total surface of 228 sqm according to the Land Registry, the property unfolds in a distinctive fan-shaped layout, offering remarkable flexibility to reimagine each space according to contemporary living standards while preserving its historic essence.
From the moment you enter, the residence reveals its architectural richness. Original modernist features hand-painted frescoes on ceilings and walls, refined mouldings, elegant parquet flooring, and ornamental woodwork, speak of a bygone era of craftsmanship and artistry. The presence of a double gallery, a rare and highly valued feature, enhances both the depth of the interiors and the quality of natural light, creating spaces that feel both expansive and intimate.
The main living area is conceived across two generous interconnected spaces, opening onto a balcony and an impressive gallery framed by eight large windows. Adjacent to this, a semi-open room offers further versatility, ideal as a study, library, or additional living space, complemented by its own smaller gallery. On the opposite side, a separate kitchen with dining area connects to a balcony overlooking the inner courtyard, offering a quieter, more private perspective of the building.
Further into the residence, three bedrooms are arranged to provide both independence and adaptability. The main bedroom features an en-suite bathroom and two balconies overlooking the street, reinforcing its presence and natural light. A connected single room adds flexibility; ideal as a dressing area or extension of the suite, while an additional bedroom with its own balcony and a separate bathroom completes the layout.
The building itself has been recently refurbished and offers the convenience of a lift and concierge service, blending classical architecture with modern-day comfort. Equipped with natural gas radiator heating, the property ensures year-round livability while maintaining its original charm.
Surrounded by the boutiques, services, and daily conveniences that define this part of Eixample Dreta, and with excellent transport connections, this residence represents more than a renovation project—it is an opportunity to create a truly unique home within one of Barcelona’s most distinguished and architecturally rich settings.
