This extraordinary and exterior penthouse is located on one of the most desired avenues in Barcelona — Avenida Diagonal. It enjoys a very central location being a 10 minutes walk from Paseo de Gracia, though yet within a very residential micro location. Upon entering the penthouse you realise directly that its layout is very different from any other property in Eixample. It offers very exterior exposure, spacious bedrooms and astonishing views of Sagrada Familia and the Tibidabo mountain. Right upon entering you have two large bedrooms on each side of the hallway entrance, where one of them enjoys a large and private bathroom. Later you approach the open and fully equipped kitchen that has direct views of Sagrada Familia. The kitchen is eventually connected to the spacious living room with direct access to the 27 m² terrace that is perfect for outdoor living all year around. The living room is eventually also connected to the master en-suite bedroom that also offers a bathtub. There is also a guest toilet in the entrance hallway. The apartment has been renovated to combine modern look with comfort with utmost attention to detail and high end finishes and appliances. Its layout and views, combined with the outdoor space, sets a perfect harmony throughout the home and offers all the aspects one could wish for in a penthouse on such a privileged location in Eixample. The house comes with A/C conduct, fully equipped kitchen, concierge service in the building and a separate service elevator for transporting goods. The location is very strategic as both Paseo de Gracia and Paseo de Sant Joan are a step away while the neighbourhood of Gracia is equally few minutes walk up, a unique combination of two worlds. La Dreta de L’Eixample begins in Plaça de Catalunya and its central axis revolves around the Passeig de Gràcia and the Cuadrat d’Or. It is delimited from the busy Calle Balmes to the renovated Passeig de Sant Joan and from the commercial Ronda Sant Pere to the convenient Avinguda Diagonal. It is one of the most expensive and exclusive neighborhoods in Barcelona, along with Pedralbes and Sarrià-Sant Gervasi. It is impossible not to make reference to the luxury of Passeig de Gràcia, with the boutiques of the most exclusive brands in the world, or to the stores on La Rambla de Catalunya. However, the rest of its streets are as or more interesting. In them resided part of the Catalan textile bourgeoisie of the early twentieth century, which has left its mark on the spectacular royal estates and modernist houses designed by the most famous architects of the time, as the Pedrera or Casa Batlló of the great Antoni Gaudí. As a result, the characteristic homes of this neighborhood are spacious apartments with high ceilings, moldings, elaborate flooring and balconies. Many buildings and apartments preserve this original architectural heritage and it is possible to find recently remodeled apartments, penthouses, lofts and even studios, which revive these elements, as well as apartments with a lot of potential to be reformed. This side of L’Eixample is equipped with all kinds of services and stores, as well as educational centers, mainly state-subsidized and private schools. You will find it very easy to move around on foot or through the public transport connections to the most expensive stores and restaurants in the city. The Eixample Dreta is the best neighborhood if you want to admire and live in the noble zone of the fascinating Catalan modernism, to reside in one of its characteristic regal estates, and to coexist in perfect balance with the vibrant and luxurious commercial life. It is ideal if you want to walk every day through its wide and tidy streets, with easy transport connections, have all kinds of services and facilities available, including arranged or private schools, and enjoy the most chic, cultural and cosmopolitan atmosphere in Barcelona.
