Gallery Properties presents this property on the second-floor corner of a historic building. This 113m² apartment combines historic charm with contemporary design.
The daytime area comprises a living and dining room with a fully equipped open-plan Bulthaup kitchen featuring high-end appliances: an oven, microwave, NEFF dishwasher, wine fridge and the latest small appliances, making the space practical. A separate laundry area includes a Miele washing machine and dryer, offering functionality without sacrificing style. The sleeping area consists of a principal suite with a private bathroom with a shower tray, a second double bedroom and a versatile third room that can be used as a single bedroom, study or office. The bedrooms include dressing areas. Two face the street and the other is internal. A second full bathroom, also with a shower tray, completes the sleeping area and adds convenience.
Additional features include high ceilings with traditional Catalan vaulting, natural finishes, air conditioning and underfloor heating with an aerothermal system, an armoured door and smart home automation. It is sold fully furnished with a carefully selected collection combining contemporary design and an appreciation of craftsmanship: Nani Marquina rugs and lighting and furniture by brands including Quadratto, Pardo, Luxcambra, Lumes and Lifra.
On the ground floor, the communal areas begin with a heated indoor swimming pool with soothing jets, surrounded by soft lighting and architectural details inspired by ancient Roman baths. You can continue with a sauna, a simple yet essential space for refreshing body and mind: the heat surrounds you, stress melts away and your senses feel revitalised. Here, wellbeing becomes part of your daily routine, with a moment of retreat that feels both natural and enjoyable. Completing this area is the private gym, a carefully designed space with separate areas for cardio, strength and free movement. State-of-the-art machines and a complete set of dumbbells give you the flexibility to train your way. After an intense workout, freshen up in the shower before returning home. With every detail considered, including private changing rooms, exercise becomes an easy and enjoyable part of daily life.
On the rooftop is a terrace filled with greenery, ideal for relaxing in the Barcelona sunshine or cooling off in the outdoor showers.
The building dates from 1580 and has a fully Gothic structure, albeit adapted to modern life, visible in its walls and ornamental details. Just beyond the wooden entrance door is a light-filled inner courtyard. Distinguished figures have passed through the building: Pere Costa gave it its current structure; Josep Verdaguer made the house his main residence; Ricardo Bofill reinvents the space with structural respect and architectural vision, providing a basis for future restorations.
Its location is a short walk from the port of Barcelona, one of the Mediterranean’s most dynamic ports with its exclusive marinas, and within easy reach of Barceloneta beach. It is surrounded by all kinds of businesses and services: restaurants, organic shops, gyms, hospitals, schools, shopping centres and green spaces, among others.
For transport, numerous bus and metro lines are just a short walk from the door.
An excellent opportunity both as a home and as an investment, offering a modern property in one of Barcelona’s most dynamic and well-connected areas.
