Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
The region of Sant Andreu is somewhat off the beaten track – a perfect location for escaping the tourist trail and experiencing authentic Barcelona. Among a huge array of boutiques, cafés, tapas bars, and restaurants, this home is a sophisticated base for exploring this lesser-known area. And even if you do want to venture out, the Fabra i Puig metro is just six minutes away. Inside, the vibe is minimalist but very colourful. A vivid orange sofa, bright green dining chairs, and a yellow divan make up this playful palette. It feels fresh and bright overall, with understated art and furnishings, and plenty of space to relax. After your morning espresso, head out to discover the neighbourhood, grabbing a Catalan pastry from a local ‘fleca’ en route. The Sant Pacià church is an eleven-minute walk from home, a 13th-century Roman marvel which is still standing perfectly to this day. Look out for the decorative mosaic flooring – Gaudí left his mark on this region as well. If you fancy visiting his most famous works, you can get to Casa Milà in under twenty minutes by metro.

About El Born
El Born is the ‘it’ neighbourhood of Barcelona. It’s the type of place that will serve you Japanese fusion before traditional tapas and showcase one-of-a-kind boutiques rather than chains or traditional designer fashion. It’s a sanctuary for trendsetters who want to see a different face of Barcelona, and much less crowded than its neighbouring Gothic Quarter. For the culturally curious, there’s also a Picasso Museum and the Santa Maria del...
