Situated only steps away from the luxurious shopping destination of Passeig de Gràcia, Sunshade Dandy is so close to the Modernist attractions that you'll be stumbling upon them on every corner. Great location aside, this home is all about the terrace. While the insides aren't the most exciting, a combination of views and comfortable chaise lounges will give you an additional seating, dining and suntanning area – on sunny days at least.
