The neighbourhood and its surroundings

The lower part of the neighbourhood, near the Paral·lel, is the busiest, with theatres, restaurants and shops. Pedestrianised Carrer de Blai is lined with bars and terraces. Further up, the streets become quieter and approach the gardens and viewpoints of Montjuïc. Its position lets you walk to Sant Antoni, the Raval and the port.

Life in Poble-sec

Living in Poble-sec means having Montjuïc as a great park on your doorstep: gardens, sports facilities, museums such as the MNAC and the Fundació Joan Miró, and paths with views over the city and the sea. The neighbourhood combines this urban nature with an intense cultural and culinary life.

What to consider when buying an apartment in Poble-sec

• The building: its condition, the quality of the refurbishment, the lift and parking.
• Floor and orientation: they determine light, views and noise.
• Outdoor space: terraces and balconies make a real difference in value.
• The layout: the balance between living areas, bedrooms and bathrooms.
• The condition of the home: renovated or in need of updating.

Renovated or in need of updating

A renovated apartment allows you to move in straight away, with modern installations and finishes. An apartment to update gives you the chance to adapt the layout to your taste and to restore original features such as high ceilings, mouldings or hydraulic tiles. Our team will help you assess each option.

Street and slope

In Poble-sec, the exact location matters a great deal: the lower streets are busier and noisier; the upper ones calmer and sometimes with views. It is also worth considering the lift, as many buildings are old, and the light on each floor in narrow streets.

Main residence or city apartment

Poble-sec can be a choice for a main residence, thanks to its services and neighbourhood life, or for an apartment in Barcelona for regular stays. For a main residence, layout, light and nearby services matter most; for occasional use, ease of access, building security and maintenance.
