A Place Of One’s Own

A Place Of One’s Own: Catalonia

This light and bright one-bed apartment in Eixample blends traditional Catalan architecture with striking modern design. A wrap-around balcony provides a fantastic vantage point from which to watch the comings and goings of the city. Fix up your breakfast in the fully equipped kitchen with an oven, electric cooker, microwave, fridge, freezer and two types of coffee machine – Nespresso and Keurig. The smart coffee table is perfect for relaxing with your coffee and the morning’s paper. Enjoy carefully curated art prints on the walls, and a range of leafy greenery watered via self-irrigation. Beyond your front door, Gaudi’s masterpieces the Sagrada Famila and Casa Milà await.
