229 m² duplex located in Casa Burés, one of the most impressive estates in the Eixample of Barcelona, completely restored.
This 229 m2 duplex penthouse located on the fourth floor of the building and is achieved by recovering the old roofs of the building. Something that makes this property have a unique touch.
On the first floor we find, on the one hand, the day area consisting of a kitchen open to a spacious southeast-facing living-dining room. The night area is made up of a bedroom and a full bathroom and a second circular bedroom that is composed of a master suite that houses a bathroom, a dressing room and some beautiful stairs that go up to a second floor that leads to a majestic work area in a circular shape that would be part of the upper part of one of the towers of the farm.
The new architectural design maintains the most outstanding elements, such as the sloping ceilings and balustrades, and incorporates skylights that add luminosity and originality to the place.
A very modern interior design, with neutral tones and soft lines inspired by nature, allows you to comfortably enjoy the sun, the views, and all the typical terraces of Barcelona's Eixample.
The spacious common areas open only to the owners have also been taken care of, consisting of two common areas, the ground floor and the upper terraces, which allow residents the possibility of relaxing and enjoying this beautiful environment. The ground floor includes an indoor pool, gym, home cinema, wine cellar and work area, as well as a professional kitchen with dining area, ideal for celebrations with large groups of friends. The upper terrace offers an outdoor pool. In addition, the price includes a storage room for each of the homes.
The Burés house was built between 1900 and 1905 by order of Francesc Burés, owner of one of the most important textile companies in Spain at the end of the 19th century and, initially, it was intended to house the headquarters of his company on the ground floor, the 1,000 m² family residence on the main floor and 12 rental apartments of 300 m² each. One of the first elevators in the city was installed in the building to facilitate access to the upper floors.
After a period of neglect, Casa Burés has been rehabilitated from its foundations to recover its original splendor. In the process, each one of its original elements has been preserved and recovered by the hand of expert craftsmen under the control of the Catalan Heritage Department, given that it is a listed building. They have tried to recover the past, maintaining the windows, the hydraulic floors, the moldings on the ceilings, each door and each window, achieving a spectacular result that takes us back a century to the origins of Modernism.
On the other hand, with the rehabilitation, the interior design with soft lines and neutral tones has managed to bring the spaces to the 21st century without losing their original essence, allowing natural light to enter all the spaces of the estate.
This is a unique opportunity in which to acquire a modernist jewel of great unique heritage value. At the same time, it offers great convenience and comfort with a luxury service and exclusive community areas.
Casa Burés is excellently located in the Eixample district right on the corner of Girona and Ausias March streets, between Paseo de Gracia and the recently remodeled Paseo de Sant Joan. A few minutes walk from the Palau de la Música Catalana, Las Ramblas and the Mercat de La Boqueria, the Ciutadella Park and the charming Born neighborhood, the OneOcean Port Vell and the beaches of Barceloneta. Casa Burés is in an ideal situation to enjoy the Mediterranean lifestyle of Barcelona.
