Surrounded by museums, markets and neoclassical architecture along the adjacent Via Laietana, this apartment's central location puts you right in the middle of one of Barcelona's most exciting neighbourhoods. While in other cities, this excellent position might mean a trade-off with the quality of the home, that's certainly not the case here. Retaining the high wooden-beamed ceilings and sections of exposed stonework from the original building, the recently renovated interior is serenely stylish, with chic furnishings, subtle lighting and a minimalist kitchen to boot. As well as a pair of French doors leading to a Juliet balcony in the living room, the building also benefits from a communal roof terrace so you can soak up some sunshine during the summer months. If you'd prefer a larger green space, Ciutadella Park takes just over seven minutes to reach on foot. Somorrostro Beach is only a twenty-two-minute walk away, as well.
