This unique property is a perfect example of how art and history blend in the magical streets of Barcelona. The Palau de Riquer is a historic building built by the fourth Marquis of Benavent, Felipe Mariano de Riquer y de Sabater, during the second half of the 18th century in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, next to the Palau de Orís.
The building consists of a ground floor of 248m2 with high vaulted ceilings, first floor of 199m2 and 2 courtyards of 13m2 in total and the second floor also of 199m2. The palace is currently registered as local commercial, but will be handed over to the new owner with a request for change of use, approved reform project and building license so it could be a local, showroom, art gallery or for personal use. Furthermore, as it has a pre-approved renovation project prepared by a renowned architectural firm it could even be transformed into 3 duplex units with an incredible common area on the ground floor.
This property is a versatile place with many possibilities for an extraordinary buyer with exquisite taste.

Location
It is the oldest district, number 1, the embryo of the city, where all its history begins from the original Barcino, where Roman ruins and medieval Gothic coexist. This district is made up of four neighborhoods, the Gothic, Sant Pere, Santa Caterina, El Born and La Ribera, and Barceloneta, each one more interesting than the other for tourists, since it is the most touristic area of the city, as well as residents. Despite its name, it is one of the most dynamic areas, full of history, art and culture, diversity and very cosmopolitan.
Its two markets are especially interesting, La Boquería and Santa Caterina have everything you need from anywhere in the world.
The buildings are quite old and many are very well preserved. The floors are generally medium to small, and fantastic historical jewels can be found, such as floors with medieval or Roman walls.
So if you are a lover of the city’s millenary history, culture, heritage, the most varied gastronomy, the beach, and entertainment, and you want to make a good investment, in this district you can find your ideal neighborhood.
