4-bedroom apartment 343 m² in Barcelona Gothic Quarter

In one of the city’s most iconic settings, on Portaferrissa Street in Barcelona’s historic centre, you’ll find a rare residence within the prestigious Palau Palmerola. This restored 18th-century landmark combines heritage architecture with contemporary comfort, placing you just moments from the Cathedral and Plaça de Catalunya. The apartment stands out for its scale, refined renovation and access to landscaped communal gardens — a remarkable green retreat in such a central location.

Inside, the home unfolds through a generous entrance hall into a series of elegant, light-filled rooms designed for both daily living and entertaining. Original brick walls and exposed wooden beams bring warmth and character, while high ceilings and carefully selected natural materials reinforce the sense of quality throughout.

The layout includes four double bedrooms, most with en-suite bathrooms, as well as a versatile additional room that could serve as a library, TV lounge or quiet retreat. The principal suite offers a more private atmosphere, complete with a walk-in dressing room, a bathroom with bathtub and peaceful views over the surrounding gardens and trees.

Highlights include

• Designer kitchen with high-end appliances and separate pantry
• Wood flooring, custom-made joinery and built-in wardrobes
• Double glazing, air conditioning, alarm system and lift access
• Balcony and abundant natural light

One of the property’s most unusual advantages is access to the communal garden. In the middle of the Old Town, this landscaped space creates a sense of calm and privacy that is exceptionally hard to find. Views over the greenery also enhance the atmosphere inside the apartment, especially from the main living area and principal suite.

Living here means having Barcelona at your doorstep. From cultural landmarks and historic streets to shops, restaurants and transport connections, everything is close at hand. The location also benefits from proximity to international schools and the everyday convenience of a well-connected central address.

With 343 m² of interior space, four bedrooms, five bathrooms and a meticulous renovation within a listed period building, this is a distinctive home for buyers seeking space, heritage and a prime Barcelona address. Offered for sale at EUR 1,600,000, it presents a rare opportunity in one of the city’s most exclusive residential settings.
