Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
It's hard to find a terrace of this size in Eixample. Barcelona's tourist heart has it all, from Catalan modernist masterpieces to intimate cafes loved by locals.

With plenty of light, space, and comfort, it's a great option for those whose priorities are functionality and location.
