Apartments for sale in Barcelona
The apartment is the most common way of living in Barcelona and also the core of the BARNES selection in the city. This page brings together the apartments we have for sale in Barcelona: from two-bedroom homes in the centre to large family apartments, including penthouses.
Most of the supply is in the Eixample, above all in the Dreta de l'Eixample, complemented by apartments in Turó Park, Pedralbes, Sant Gervasi - Galvany, the Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample, the Gothic Quarter and Diagonal Mar.
Where the apartments in our selection are
- Dreta de l'Eixample: the neighbourhood with the most apartments in our selection. Early 20th-century buildings near Passeig de Gràcia and Rambla de Catalunya, with high ceilings and large windows.
- Turó Park and Sant Gervasi - Galvany: stately apartments around the park and the Diagonal, on quiet streets with local shops.
- Pedralbes: spacious apartments in the upper city, often in buildings with communal gardens, pool and parking.
- Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample: classic buildings in a lively neighbourhood full of shops.
- Gothic Quarter: apartments in restored historic buildings in the heart of the city.
- Diagonal Mar: recent buildings by the sea, with communal services.
Sizes and property types
The selection covers very different needs: one- or two-bedroom apartments for those looking for a home in the centre or a pied-à-terre, three- and four-bedroom apartments for families and some larger homes with five or six bedrooms. They also include penthouses with terraces, one of the scarcest property types in the city.
Period building or building with services
An apartment in an Eixample period building offers high ceilings, mouldings, hydraulic tiles and a generous layout, with city life on foot. An apartment in a more recent building in the upper city or on the seafront brings services such as concierge, pool, communal garden and parking. If the first type interests you, we recommend our guide to buying an apartment in an Eixample period building.
What to consider when buying an apartment in Barcelona
- Floor level and orientation: they determine light and views, especially on narrow streets.
- The building: condition of the façade, roof and common installations, lift and any works planned by the community.
- The layout: in older buildings, whether the apartment can be adapted to modern living without losing its original features.
- Outdoor space: balcony, terrace or patio, highly valued in the city.
- The surroundings: schools, transport, shops and green spaces depending on your lifestyle.
Choosing a neighbourhood
Each neighbourhood suits a lifestyle: the Eixample, urban life and modernist architecture; the upper city, more space and tranquillity; the seafront, recent buildings by the sea. We compare them in our guide to buying a luxury apartment in Barcelona by neighbourhood.
