Barcelona, Vallcarca i els Penitents

A character-filled Modernist home ready to be reimagined

Comfi Homes presents this distinctive property on Avinguda de la República Argentina, set within an elegant Modernist building dating from 1929.

Offering 104 m² of built area and 96 m² of usable interior space, the apartment stands out for something increasingly rare in Barcelona: the opportunity to undertake a complete renovation while preserving a collection of beautiful original architectural features.

Throughout the home, high ceilings with decorative coffering and original hydraulic mosaic floors in different patterns reveal the character of the period and provide a remarkable starting point for a sensitive contemporary renovation.

The property occupies an exterior first floor with a south-east orientation, allowing for pleasant natural light throughout the day. The living and dining area opens onto balconies overlooking the avenue, creating a bright and generous main living space with considerable potential for a new layout.

The kitchen is currently independent, although the existing configuration offers the possibility of opening it towards the entrance hall to create a more fluid and contemporary relationship between the different living areas.

The sleeping quarters comprise three bedrooms. One opens onto a gallery that benefits from morning light and could be transformed into an attractive principal suite, with the potential to incorporate a private bathroom alongside a dressing area or home office. The remaining two bedrooms share a generous bathroom, while the layout also offers scope to introduce a separate laundry area.

The apartment is offered in shell condition, with the walls stripped back, providing a rare degree of freedom to develop a completely bespoke interior. Rather than adapting someone else's renovation, the next owner can define the materials, layout and atmosphere from the outset while restoring and celebrating the property's original features.

The building itself is also undergoing a process of improvement, including works to the main façade, entrance and staircase, together with the installation of a lift currently in progress.

Located between the character of Gràcia and the greener surroundings of Vallcarca, the property offers a residential Barcelona setting with convenient access to local shops, services and public transport.

A compelling opportunity for those looking beyond a conventional renovated apartment: a home with history, architectural identity and the potential to become a truly personal Barcelona residence.
