BathroomsSotheby’s International Realty is pleased to present this unique home:
Enric Granados, The Beauty of Imperfection.
The house is at the midpoint between two aesthetic trends: on the one hand, it maintains elements of Catalan modernism, with details present both in common areas of the building and in the ceiling moldings inside the house.
On the other hand, it follows a line of Asian aesthetics known as Wabi-Sabi. This is a philosophy originating in Japan that breaks with many of the typical rules of decoration, as it opposes the absolute symmetry, to discard the old and maintain the standards of perfection in every detail. Despite this, in this house no detail is left to chance. According to this style it is necessary to decorate with the essential and with natural elements. In its distribution it flees from the symmetry of minimalism and is committed to let the spaces breathe and offer a sense of freedom within the home.
This combination of aesthetic trends, together with the qualities used for the finishes and its privileged location make this house a completely unique element within what the city of Barcelona has to offer.
The apartment was completely renovated with the highest qualities of the market; all its components were thought to the smallest detail. Thanks to the fact that it is located on the sixth floor, the apartment is characterized by being extremely quiet, despite being in the heart of Barcelona. At the same time, it enjoys natural light throughout the day as it has orientation on both sides of the building, street and block lung.
The apartment of 173 m2 built, has a social area where we find a kitchen-dining room, living room, terrace, office and a guest bathroom. The day area has an open kitchen with Siemens appliances, dining room and living room. This portion of the property overlooks the heart of the block, being extremely quiet and diaphanous. In turn, the apartment has a quiet balcony from which you can see the Sagrada Familia.
The night area consists of three bedrooms, two of them en suite with full bathroom. All of them equipped with large built-in closets. This area is completed with a courtesy bathroom and a hall with a sofa, designed as a reading room.
If you are interested in this cohesion between aesthetic trends, do not hesitate to contact us so that we can show you this unique property.

Location
The old Esquerra de l’Eixample is, together with La Dreta de L’Eixample, one of the first areas of the city to be urbanized. It is located in the heart of the city, between Avinguda Diagonal, Balmes street, Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes and Comte d’Urgell street.
This neighborhood with a long history is home to some of the most important facilities since the beginning of the urbanization of the city, such as the University of Barcelona, the Hospital Clínic and the emblematic Mercat del Ninot. The numerous regal, classical and modernist estates that fill streets like Aribau, Muntaner, the pedestrian Enric Granados among others, are an example of the Eixample designed by Cerdà. You can find apartments that are beautiful modernist jewels of medium or large size and buildings that have been completely renovated.
A good part of the life of the neighborhood happens in the island interiors and the premises of first floors that occupy small new and traditional stores, many restaurants, places of leisure and night clubs. As the nerve center of Barcelona, its communication with the rest of the neighborhoods is excellent by public transport, and if you have a car you should know that it is very desirable to locate one of the few parking spaces with the purchase of your home.
You should have Antiga Esquerra de l’Eixample on your list if you want to live in the neighborhood with one of the widest gastronomic offers in the city, with the most emblematic facilities, with a lot of nightlife and if you want to feel the cosmopolitan spirit of the Barcelona neighborhood par excellence.
