Opis:

In Calle Rossello, one block from the temple of the Sagrada Familia, the loft is in a beautiful building from 1931.

It is a ground floor flat but, unlike what happens usually for this type of properties, the access is not from the street but from the interior of the building, like every other flat. The apartment gives to the rear of the building, which ensures security and silence. It has armoured door and alarm system.

The loft has a total surface of 96 m2.

It has been refurbished completely. The renovation has recovered and enhanced the original style of the unit, such as vaulted ceilings and brick walls. All the installations are brand new and so are all the windows. The loft is arranged in a large open space with American kitchen. This area gives access to a private patio partially covered where it is possible to enjoy a drink or a meal or spend quiet time outdoor. The large open space also features a guest bathroom.

The night area includes a spacious bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and large bathroom with shower.

All rooms have windows for ventilation although being a ground floor unit, the apartment does not receive a lot of natural light, apart from in the lounge and the kitchen.

The building has a communal roof terrace with breath-taking view to the Sagrada Familia, the whole city, and the sea.

The location benefits from all the advantages of being close to the temple, with plenty of restaurants, bars, cafes, and shops.

The beautiful Avenida Gaudi (rambla that goes from the Sagrada Familia to the Hospital de Sant Pau) is around the block.

Paseo the Gracia and Rambla de Catalunya can be reached on foot in 15 minutes or in a few minute bus ride.

Transport links are excellent, with the closest underground stop (Sagrada Familia, lines 2 and 5) at only 4 minute walk.

EIXAMPLE SAGRADA FAMILIA, THE RESIDENTIAL AREA AROUND GAUDI'S MASTERPIECE

This part of the Eixample is most commonly known just as 'Sagrada Familia', and it surrounds what is simply one of the most famous and magnificent monuments in the world.

Visited by over 3 million people every year, the temple of the Sagrada Familia is the second most visited destination in the world.

The area started to develop in the 19th Century when factories were set up. The original Sagrada Familia was meant to be the church for the people in the area. However, when Gaudi took over the project from the original designer, he transformed it into the architectural wonder we know now, parts of which have been declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Thanks to Gaudi's drawings and projects, the construction continued although for several decades it went very slowly.

Now the works are proceeding faster and the basilica is scheduled to be finished in 2026.

The Sagrada Familia is not the only landmark of this area.

The magnificent Hospital de Sant Pau is located right at the border between the areas of Sagrada Familia and Horta-Guinardo and it is connected to the basilica by the beautiful semi-pedestrian Avenida Gaudi, a diagonal street that offers a central pedestrian area full of nice cafes and restaurants with outdoor terraces.

Like the Sagrada Familia, also the Hospital de Sant Pau is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a magnificent place to visit.

The area of the Sagrada Familia is of course the destination of million of tourists all year long. However, tourists tend to move around the basilica, its surrounding souvenir shops and tourist restaurants, without spreading across the whole area. Therefore, if one does not live right next to the basilica, there are good chances that his/her property is not going to be overwhelmed by organised groups in owe after the visit to the mystic temple.

The area is very lively, and offers plenty of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, and services of all kinds (gyms, schools, medical centres, clinics, beauty centres, etc.).

Transport links are excellent, with several underground stops and buses.
