Located in the heart of Barcelona’s trendy Dreta del L’Eixample, this bright and airy home is decorated in earthy tones – inspired by Bali – creating a comfortable space in an ideal location for exploring the city. Start your mornings here with coffee and churros at the kitchen’s breakfast bar or explore your neighbourhood which is home to speciality coffee shops and some of Barcelona’s finest cuisine. Stained glass sliding doors lead from the living room to an interior balcony complete with dedicated workstations so you can catch up on emails or meet that important deadline if you need to. A step to the left of this space opens up to the home’s small balcony space, perfect for spending an afternoon reading in the Indonesian-inspired hammock, or sipping on sangria in the evening as you enjoy the views. Take advantage of this home’s great location and see countless sights, many within walking distance of your door. The Arc de Triomf, which was built in 1888 as the gateway to the fair which was held in the Parc de la Ciutadella, is just a two-minute walk away, while the park itself is only eight minutes away on foot, and is the... perfect place for leisurely strolls admiring the beautiful fountains. See Gaudí’s architecture at Casa Battló and Casa Milá, which can be reached in twenty and twenty-three minutes on foot, respectively, or explore the city’s gothic quarter – just a seventeen-minute walk away. Whatever’s on your Barcelona bucket list, from cultural sights to the city beach – just fourteen minutes away on public transport – this home is ideally situated to see it all.
