Everything you need to know about this apartment sold
Constructed between 1900 and 1905, Casa Burés offers the possibility to acquire a property in Barcelona's Eixample district in one of the world's most impressive and best preserved Modernist buildings.
The renovation of Casa Burés not only preserves the building's structure and its listed decorative elements, but also maintains all the advantages of its Modernist architecture: light, space, habitability, high quality materials and the search for new solutions and maximum comfort.
Every door, window, ceiling, floor, sculpture and pane of stained glass has been painstakingly studied by experts in Catalonia's Modernist heritage. The most valuable elements were restored by specialist craftsmen, while others were replaced by identical pieces adapted to suit today's purposes or given a new lease of life as decorative features.
The renovation process has reinterpreted the building's Modernist values and adapted them to suit different lifestyles, in the form of 26 exclusive, luxurious properties.
The 16 Berenguer Apartments measure between 120m² and 170m². These former rental apartments have been lovingly restored and present a unique opportunity for true lovers of the Eixample district.
With a variety of options for size and layout, some facing the street and others the tranquil inner courtyard, all of these apartments preserve the building's Modernist air thanks to their high ceilings, large picture windows and hand-tiled mosaic floors.
The fresh, welcoming interior décor combines traditional style with functional touches such as the combined living room and kitchen, separated by sliding glass screens in order to maximize light and to save space.
The Casa Burés development offers owners access to services and amenities unrivalled anywhere else in Barcelona. 2 communal areas – the lower ground floor and upper terraces – entitle residents to indulge, laugh and relax in exquisite surroundings. The lower ground floor has been transformed into an indoor pool, gym, home cinema, wine cellar, work space as well as housing a professional kitchen and dining area, ideal for entertaining large groups of friends. The upper terrace offers an outdoor pool. At Casa Burés you can enjoy unbeatable quality of life at all times of the year.

Extras
One-of-a kind for over one hundred years: Constructed between 1900 and 1905, Casa Burés takes its name from its first owner, Francesc Burés, owner of one of Spain's most successful textile companies. Originally, the ground floor housed the company's headquarters while the 1000m² first floor was Burés' family home. The upper floors – which were accessed by one of the first lifts to be installed in Barcelona – then comprised twelve 300m² rental apartments. The building's façade at the junction of Carrer Ausiàs March and Carrer Girona is just as imposing today as when it was first built. It is inside, however, where Casa Burés' greatest treasures are to be found.
Modernist values: The renovation of Casa Burés not only preserves the building's structure and its listed decorative elements, but also maintains all the advantages of its Modernist architecture: light, space, habitability, high-quality materials and maximum comfort.
Preservation of the past: Every door, window, ceiling, floor, sculpture and pane of stained glass has been painstakingly studied by experts in Catalonia's Modernist heritage. The most valuable elements were restored by specialist craftsmen, while others were replaced by identical pieces adapted to suit today's purposes or given a new lease of life as decorative features. For example, sliding doors that previously divided rooms now partition the separate areas for daytime and night-time activities. And the exquisite wallpaper patterns that once adorned the walls of the bedrooms inspired the design of the new ground-glass screens that have taken their place.
Nothing has been forgotten.
