We’ve always felt a pull to those homes that honour the tradition and history of their environment – places where you can feel the beating heart of a city. And this home, located in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, perfectly captures the unique charm of the medieval streets that lie below.

Inside, the original nineteenth-century features have been lovingly restored and complemented with elegant details. The artistic energy of the city fills this home. As the day begins, open the doors in the bedroom and allow the gentle sound of the city to drift into the room. Whether you’re enjoying a slow breakfast around the dining table or catching up on emails at the desk, there’s an inspiring quality to this home.

Stepping outside, wander through the beautiful Plaza Real where locals and tourists mingle in the bars and restaurants – only a minute's walk away. Follow the narrow streets filled with artisanal stores towards the iconic La Rambla – a ten–minute walk. Afternoons can be spent on the seafront, enjoying the laid back atmosphere of the city’s coastal location.

As the day draws to a close, wind your way back through the Gothic Quarter, where the iconic architecture can be seen from a new perspective. When you’re feeling full of inspiration, this home provides a tranquil space to relax in the heart of the city.
