About this property
GEM HOUSES BARCELONA presents this unique 103 m² ground floor apartment with a wonderful 74 m² private garden, located in the Progrés neighborhood of Badalona. A very special home that offers the independence and privacy of a town house in the city center. The building consists of only two homes, which belonged to a single family, a circumstance that explains the intimate and familiar atmosphere the building still retains. The home has an independent entrance directly from the street through a double door. Upon entering, we are greeted by a long hallway with high vaulted ceilings, arches, antique doors of great height, and beautiful original hydraulic floors that anticipate the character of the entire property. We find four rooms. The first is a spacious double bedroom with a storage room and a window to the street, which receives the pleasant morning sun. The other three rooms have windows to interior courtyards, promoting light and natural ventilation. The layout offers great flexibility, as the interior walls can be modified to enlarge the rooms, change, or create a configuration completely adapted to the needs of the future owner, always after technical verification. At the end of the hallway, we find the living-dining room, a cozy space with large windows and a door that communicates, via stairs, with the garden. From the dining room, a beautiful double door gives access to the kitchen, which retains charming original elements, such as an old marble sink, the countertop, and a traditional pantry. There is the possibility of opening the kitchen to the dining room to create a larger and more open living area. At the back is the full bathroom next to a practical laundry area, both with windows to interior courtyards. One of the great attractions of this home is its private garden of approximately 74 m². The abundant vegetation, climbing plants, and tall trees create a lush and almost tropical atmosphere, providing privacy, shade, and coolness. It is an ideal space for relaxing, reading, growing plants, or enjoying outdoor meals and gatherings with family and friends. Under the stairs, there is a pleasant covered porch, perfect for setting up an outdoor dining area protected from the sun and rain. Beneath the rest of the house, there is also a large space that can be used as a wine cellar, storage room, workshop, or large storage area. This area needs restoration but has windows and vents that facilitate ventilation and help prevent the typical humidity of basements. The property retains magnificent hydraulic floors, high vaulted ceilings, arches, antique doors of great height, and other original architectural details. All these elements provide warmth, authenticity, and a unique personality, offering an excellent base for a renovation that respects the essence of the house. Although the house needs updates to adapt it to current needs and tastes, it has been inhabited until recently. Located in a quiet and consolidated area close to the center of Badalona, the home is surrounded by shops and services, near the commercial axis of Carrer del Mar, the promenade, and the beach. It has good transport links via metro, Rodalies, buses, and convenient road access to Barcelona. A habitable house from the first moment, with pending updates and enormous potential to gradually turn it into a unique and fully personalized home. If you are looking for the essence of an old town house, with privacy, outdoor space, personality, and proximity to the sea, do not hesitate to visit it, with GEM HOUSES BARCELONA.
