Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This home in Sant Gervasi is a design lovers' haven, with stylish furniture and traditional features. The open-plan living room is just the spot to unwind with a glass of sangria, while the kitchen is all set up for cooking feasts at home. There’s a desk in the third bedroom if work is on the cards, though we hope you’ll make some time for sightseeing, too. Location-wise, this neighbourhood is a little more residential, with both mountain nature walks and cultural landmarks within easy reach. There are tapas bars on your doorstep, though if you feel like jetting to the inner city, Les Tres Torres station is a few steps away.
