Three things that make this one different.

Fifth floor, five homes, one keyed lift.

Top of the building, dual aspect north-west and south-east with cross ventilation, four neighbours in total, and a lift that opens straight into the apartment. Come and see it at whatever hour suits you — evenings and weekends included, and take as long over it as you like.

A 2020 renovation on one aerothermal system.

Heating, cooling and domestic hot water all run off it. Fully electric throughout — no gas, no boiler, no flue, nothing left to replace. Energy rating B: 42 kWh/m² a year consumption, 7 kg CO₂/m² a year emissions.

81 m² of roof nobody can build again.

Private and exclusive to this apartment — not shared, not a rota, no one else holds a key. In a medieval quarter with four-metre streets and heritage-protected rooflines, permission for another one is not slow to obtain — there is no permission to obtain.

What "penthouse" means at this address

81 m² of private roof. Nobody else holds a key.

Top floor of a five-home building, and the roof above it is exclusive to this apartment. Decked over two levels and screened on every neighbouring side. The jacuzzi position is built and serviced — structure, water, drainage and power all run to it — and a brand-new jacuzzi is installed on completion, included in the price, as shown.

Everything you can see stays. Bring your luggage.

The apartment sells with its contents. Beds, sofas, wardrobes, dining table and chairs, the televisions, the lamps and rugs, the fridge-freezer, hob, oven and the kitchen down to the plates — and the rooftop furniture too. It has been renovated, furnished and finished by one owner, and it is being sold that way rather than emptied first.

There is nothing to order, nothing to wait on and no fit-out to project-manage from another country. Take the keys in the morning and you can sleep here that same night.

What is included is set out item by item in the written inventory, which is annexed to the contract and prevails over these photographs. It goes out with the dossier, so you read it before you offer.

Room by room

Open any line for the detail and the photograph.

Rooftop terrace with pergola, dining table and built-in bench seating

81 m² on two levels, exclusive to this apartment — composite decking, covered pergola over the lounge, dining area and built-in bench seating, screened on every neighbouring side. The jacuzzi position is built and serviced — structure, water, drainage and power already run to it — and a new jacuzzi is installed on completion, included in the price. Nobody else in the building has access to the roof.

Living room with original timber beams, corner sofa and shuttered balcony doors

Open reception under original timber beams with oak floors and shuttered balcony doors. Living, dining and kitchen share one continuous, light-filled volume.

Open-plan white kitchen with breakfast stools under timber beams

Handleless, fully integrated, with an island and breakfast bar. Induction hob, built-in oven, integrated fridge-freezer, dishwasher and microwave — ready to cook in from the first evening, with nothing left to buy, fit or wait for.

Principal bedroom with balcony and shuttered window

Both with full-height fitted wardrobes and generous natural light. The principal opens to its own balcony; the second is a quiet room set to the interior.

Bathroom with walk-in rain shower and graphic cement floor tiles

One en-suite. White tile over graphic cement floors, matte-black fittings, walk-in rain showers behind frameless glass.

Second bedroom, styled, with framed prints and bedside lighting

Sold with its contents, down to the kitchenware and the rooftop furniture. What that means precisely is a written inventory, listed item by item, sent out with the dossier and annexed to the contract — so what is included is a matter of record rather than of recollection, and it prevails over anything shown in these photographs.

Steps up to the upper level of the rooftop terrace

Five homes, one per floor, fully renovated and completed 2020. Keyed private lift opening directly into the apartment. Video intercom with camera, and an alarm system. Nota simple, cédula d'habitabilitat and energy performance certificate are all available on request.

Living and kitchen seen together under the restored beam ceiling

Dual aspect — north-west principal, south-east secondary — so the apartment takes light from two sides and ventilates across. Rare in the Gothic Quarter, where most flats face one way into a narrow street.

Aerothermal heating, cooling and domestic hot water on one system. Fully electric installation throughout — no gas, no boiler, no flue. Energy rating B: 42 kWh/m²/yr consumption, 7 kg CO₂/m²/yr emissions.

Barcelona Cathedral seen from the rooftop terrace

Plaça Reial and La Rambla at the end of the street. La Boqueria market, Port Vell and Maremagnum are all within a short walk, and the waterfront a few minutes beyond them — all of it on foot, none of it needing a car or a plan.

The full dossier has the floor plan, the nota simple, the energy certificate and the inventory of what stays with the apartment. All of it goes out before we ask you for anything at all.

What it costs to hold

Two fixed charges.

That is the whole of it. Five homes share the building's costs, the renovation is five years old, and the entire property runs on one aerothermal system for heating, cooling and hot water — fully electric, no gas, no boiler to replace.

€94.17 / month Community fee 2026
€539.28 / year IBI property tax 2026 · Ajuntament de Barcelona

That is the community fee and the council tax — the two charges you cannot avoid. Both figures are the 2026 amounts and are subject to change by the community of owners and by the Ajuntament respectively. Your own electricity, water and home insurance sit on top, as they would anywhere. Ask us for the last two years of community minutes and the current position on any special levy; they go out with the dossier, unedited.

Energy certificate Rating B · 42 kWh/m² per year consumption · 7 kg CO₂/m² per year emissions
