Amenities and special features of this development
This historic property has been completely restored and sheds a new light on the hidden industrial heritage of Barcelona. Located in the sought-after Barcelona neighborhood of Eixample Dret, the main facade and the original interior stairs are a classic example of the Eixample style of the early twentieth century and is listed as protected heritage by the city of Barcelona.
The interiors have been completely redesigned to adapt to modern life. Interior load-bearing walls have been replaced by columns to expand the living spaces and to increase natural light and views throughout. The internal ‘patio de luz’ has been enlarged to brighten lower floors, and from the fourth floor, there are panoramic views of the city. There are exterior facing flats, and courtyard facing flats that feature large windows overlooking a restored 19th century mill with peaceful terraces for enjoying the morning sun.
As a completely refurbished property, there is the comfort of a modern property with the history of a classic ‘finca regia.’ The kitchens are equipped with state of the art furniture and appliances. Comfortable interior climates are maintained with central air conditioning by Mitsubishi, radiator heat, and solar panels.

Eixample Dreta: Location and surroundings of this development
Today, Eixample symbolizes the elegance of Barcelona. Its network of octagonal blocks is considered a masterpiece of urban planning. In addition, it is said that its designer, Ildefons Cerdà, is the father of urbanism. Some of the most outstanding architectural works of Gaudí's Catalan modernism and its contemporaries are found in these tree-lined residential streets.
However, until the end of the 19th century, this area was full of fields, factories and mills. Barcelona was a city overcrowded and drowned between walls. When these walls fell, the Eixample was born. The old industrial areas were demolished as the city grew. The few structures that survived were redesigned and reconverted. Sharing the patio with this outstanding residential project, is a restored original flour mill that has become a classic example of brick architecture of the time. Barcelona elites began to build their wonderful buildings in the right part of the Eixample district at the end of the 19th century. Today, the rehabilitation of this area is in full swing with new pedestrian areas, new shops and new life.
This development enjoys a magnificent location for urban life. It is located in a quiet street, intended for pedestrian use in the near future and only a few minutes from the beaches of Barcelona. Born's trendy area, full of bars, restaurants, galleries and museums, is just around the corner. The heart of the Eixample, the Passeig de Gràcia, is a few steps away. There are the best luxury hotels in Barcelona, as well as designer shops and restaurants.
