La Dreta de L’Eixample begins in Plaça de Catalunya and its central axis revolves around the 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 make reference to the luxury of Passeig de Gràcia, with the boutiques of the most exclusive brands in the world, or to the stores on La Rambla de Catalunya. However, the rest of its streets are as or more interesting. In them resided 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, as the Pedrera or Casa Batlló of 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 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 to be reformed.
This side of L’Eixample is equipped with all kinds of services and stores, as well as educational centers, mainly state-subsidized and private schools. You will find it very easy to move around on foot or through the public transport connections to the most expensive stores and restaurants in the city.
The Eixample Dreta is the best neighborhood if you want to admire and live in the noble zone of the fascinating Catalan modernism, to reside in one of its characteristic regal estates, and to coexist in perfect balance with the vibrant and luxurious commercial life. It is ideal if you want to walk every day through its wide and tidy streets, with easy transport connections, have all kinds of services and facilities available, including arranged or private schools, and enjoy the most chic, cultural and cosmopolitan atmosphere in Barcelona.
