Apartment for sale Barcelona El Born

Located in the heart of El Born, on the iconic Carrer de Rera Palau, this exclusive 144 m² apartment is situated on a real fourth floor in a turn of the century building with an elevator, offering a unique blend of history, elegance, and modern comfort. Thanks to its corner layout, the property enjoys exceptional natural light, with the living-dining room facing Plaça de les Olles and Carrer de Rera Palau, while three of the four bedrooms also have exterior views.

Currently undergoing a complete renovation, scheduled for completion in April/May 2025, the apartment is being transformed into a luxurious home that respects and enhances its original architectural features. The floors will be covered in natural wood arranged in a herringbone pattern, framed by an elegant perimeter of the same material, while the living and dining areas will retain traditional hydraulic mosaic carpets, characteristic of historic Barcelona homes. The original coffered ceilings, with their central rosettes, will be carefully restored to maintain the property's stately character.

The apartment consists of four bedrooms: three doubles — two with views of Carrer de Rera Palau and one overlooking Plaza de Les Olles — as well as a fourth single bedroom with a walk-in closet and views of the interior patio. The bathrooms have been designed with premium materials and high-end finishes, featuring brushed gold fixtures, custom ceramic shower trays, decorative herringbone wall tiles combined with microcement, and illuminated niches in the showers and vanity areas. The bathroom furniture will be made of wood, with ceramic countertops and designer vessel sinks.

The kitchen, designed to offer the highest functionality and style, will include lacquered wood cabinetry and Bosch built-in appliances. A central island with a ceramic countertop and decorative side panel will serve as a focal point, while brushed gold fixtures add a touch of sophistication. Among the premium appliances, the kitchen will feature a ceiling-integrated extractor hood, a wine cooler, and a paneled fridge-freezer.

For ultimate comfort, the apartment will be equipped with a Samsung ducted air system for both heating and cooling, as well as underfloor heating in the bathrooms with independent thermostats. The original doors and windows will be carefully restored and fitted with double glazing for optimal thermal and acoustic insulation. Additionally, the sale price includes a walk-in closet and a built-in wardrobe in the entrance hall.

This property represents a rare opportunity for those seeking a sophisticated residence in one of Barcelona’s most desirable neighborhoods, where historic charm seamlessly blends with luxury and contemporary design.
