The Dreta de L′Eixample starts at Plaça de Catalunya and its central axis revolves around Passeig de Gràcia and the Cuadrat d′Or. It is delimited from the busy Calle Balmes to the renovated Passeig de Sant Joan and from the commercial Ronda Sant Pere to the convenient Avinguda Diagonal. It is one of the most expensive and exclusive neighborhoods in Barcelona, along with Pedralbes and Sarrià-Sant Gervasi.
It is impossible not to refer to the luxury of Paseo de Gràcia, with the boutiques of the most exclusive brands in the world, or the stores of La Rambla de Catalunya. However, the rest of its streets are just as interesting, if not more so. They were home to part of the Catalan textile bourgeoisie of the early twentieth century, which has left its mark on the spectacular royal estates and modernist houses designed by the most famous architects of the time, such as La Pedrera or Casa Batlló by the great Antoni Gaudí.
As a result, the characteristic homes of this neighborhood are spacious apartments with high ceilings, moldings, elaborate flooring and balconies. Many buildings and apartments preserve this original handcrafted architectural heritage and it is possible to find recently remodeled apartments, penthouses, lofts and even studios, which revive these elements, as well as apartments with a lot of potential for renovation.
This side of L′Eixample is endowed with all kinds of services and stores, educational centers -mainly private and charter schools-. You will find it very easy to get around on foot or by public transport connections to the most expensive and fashionable stores and restaurants in the city.
This is the best neighborhood if you want to admire and live in the noble area of the fascinating Catalan modernism, reside in one of its characteristic royal estates, and live in perfect balance with the vibrant and luxurious commercial life. It is ideal if you want to walk every day through its wide and orderly streets, with easy transport connections, have all kinds of services and facilities including charter or private schools, and enjoy the most chic, cultural and cosmopolitan atmosphere of Barcelona.
