Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
High above the streets of Barcelona, this cosy home offers beautiful views and comfort. While we found a lot of the furniture to be a bit dated, there's more charm in this home than many others – a small collection of art books and knick-knacks add warmth and reinforce a relaxed vibe. As for the location, this home is located on the most important avenue in Eixample and within walking distance to the famous sights.
