Description
Located just off Passeig de Colon and Via Layetana, this 2-bedroom apartment has been renovated to a very high standard. This combined with its proximity to Port Vell, Santa María del Mar, and the Ramblas makes it a fantastic Barcelona property. The apartment has 90 m with a 16 m terrace and is in one of the oldest parts of the Gothic quarter amongst the historical buildings of Ciutat Vella and the original Roman wall. The building features a Dragon relief on its façade and its origins date back to 1736. The building is entered via a stone archway and you enter a lovely staircase patio. The apartment has been exquisitely renovated with beautiful stonework exposing the different stages of the building's development through the years. There are original exposed vaults, beamed ceilings and brick walls in the entrance hall and bathrooms. The interior embraces the old and the new, balancing the restoration of the original doors, windows and floors with all the requirements for a contemporary living environment including double glazing, air conditioning and wireless internet connection. Special emphasis was given to the selection of STARK designed furniture in the bathrooms, a SMEG kitchen and AGABECOV lighting. The living area can be isolated from the rest of the apartment by the large wood and glass doors and the kitchen is high quality and has been specially designed to fit in the space and has been tastefully done in stainless steel with a sleek and modern look. It comes equipped with a SMEG fridge, dishwasher, gas stove, oven, sink and microwave oven. The apartment has two double bedrooms. One along the stone façade with a lovely balcony to the street. A heavy curtain isolates the room from the living area. The second bedroom with direct access to the terrace through an iron frame door and is kept separate and private from the living area by sliding glass doors. The two complete bathrooms are beautifully designed around a former well. The main bathroom, beside the stone façade, has a bathtub and a charming window that allows natural light in. Both bathrooms have Phillipe Starck designed basins, toilets and showers. One of the best features of this apartment is the 16 m private terrace, which has a wooden floor and an outdoor shower for those hot summer days. Bougainvilleas and palms create a green, tranquil atmosphere. Please contact us to arrange a viewing.

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in Spain will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.
The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.
This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £15,539 more.
