Vinçon Legacy

Vinçon Legacy: Catalonia

It should come as no surprise that an interior designer was involved with the creation of this plush apartment. The chromatic and textural harmony and adept pairing of old and new furniture is no happy accident. Elsewhere in the home, you’ll find a fully functional kitchen and bedrooms with comfy beds to leave you feeling seriously well-rested. Located between Eixample and the Gothic Quarter, there is no end of cafes, tapas bars and eateries within easy reach. Carrer dels Tallers, famous for its vintage shops, is a three-minute walk away, while the delicious Chocolate Museum is a leisurely twenty minutes to the east. Take advantage of the glorious Barcelona sunshine with a picnic at Ciutadella Park or catch the bus for just over twenty minutes to Barceloneta Beach.
