Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
A calm, light-filled apartment in the heart of L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample, the living areas carry a beach-inspired feel that keeps things relaxed, and the bedroom catches good morning light – a gentle way to start a Barcelona day. Urgell and Universitat metro stations are both close by, putting the rest of the city well within reach, and the UNESCO-listed Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau is a thirteen-minute drive.
