Description
Located near Via Laietana, this property stands out for its remarkable tranquility, providing a pleasant contrast to the bustling energy of this major thoroughfare. The building is on a typical narrow street of the Gothic Quarter, with the imposing silhouette of a Gothic convent in the background. Before reaching Via Laietana, the alleyway outside the building opens onto a plaza where the majestic Hotel Ohla Barcelona stands, next to a lively pedestrian street filled with shops. Upon ascending three floors (either by stairs or lift) and stepping through the apartment door, you are welcomed into a serene, cocoon-like atmosphere. Even with the windows open, none of the hustle and bustle from Via Laietana filters through, whether facing the alley or the inner courtyard. On this side, the spacious living room opens to a terrace overlooking tree-lined gardens and historic buildings, lending a charming, rustic feel. The 114 m apartment features three bedrooms, two of which are suites, and has been completely renovated while respecting the original style. The architect prioritized quality materials throughout: the floors are clad in solid oak parquet, and the bathrooms are finished with marble in soft shades of beige, complemented by brushed gold fixtures. This harmonious colour scheme extends to the kitchen, where the broad granite countertops are paired with high-end appliances and a wine cooler. The layout is practical and well-considered: a spacious entryway divides the apartment into two sections. On the left, facing the alley, is a bedroom and a suite with a balcony, while on the opposite side, the living room and kitchen open onto a large balcony, with the second suite at the far end. Additionally, the apartment features its own private storage space that is very easy to access from the building's entrance, perfect for bicycles or other belongings. Please contact us for further information and 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 £17,641 more.
