Barcelona · Gothic Quarter
Living in the Gothic Quarter, Heritage and history are the key strengths of this neighborhood.
This area includes some of the city’s main points of interest, such as Plaza Reial, the Cathedral, and the Call. The location is unbeatable, with the sea nearby and abundant culture within reach. In fact, the Gothic Quarter is in the most central area, next to Plaza Catalunya, La Rambla, Via Laietana, and the port. It also serves as the city’s political center, as it houses various institutions, such as the City Hall and the Generalitat.
The building where this magnificent apartment is located once belonged to the Guarro family, a highly esteemed family in Barcelona who commissioned Puig i Cadafalch to design this building. The Guarro family were patrons (contributing to the construction of the Palau de la Música) and politically, one of them served as a cultural councilor for the Liga Regionalista.
In this building, Puig i Cadafalch based his design on a very innovative structure for its time. The building is part of the city’s architectural heritage and is listed with a level C protection.
Built in 1922 by Puig i Cadafalch during his Noucentista period, his works from this period are characterized by greater austerity and a stronger focus on functionality, without compromising on elegance and architectural quality. The facade features a differentiated treatment between the lower, middle, and upper levels. The ground floor is distributed with columns that support five semicircular arches on the mezzanine, the main floor has a gallery with six pairs of Tuscan columns, on which rests the stone balcony of the upper floor. The next three floors have individual wrought-iron balconies, finishing with another stone and iron continuous balcony on the top floor, and the building is closed with a stone balustrade adorned with six urns.
147 m² property distributed as follows:
A living-dining room with plenty of natural light, maximizing the use of all the spaces in the apartment. This creates a single open space that merges the two areas.
