Barcelona Eixample investment flat in historical building Casa de los CaracolesThis apartment is located in an emblematic building of the Eixample, known as La Casa de los Caracoles (the house of the snails).The legend says that an old couple used to look for snails in this area, a field at the time, to sell them at the nearby Sant Antoni market. While looking for snails, they found a bag full of gold coins, which made them rich. To thank the snails for changing their lives, they built a palace dedicated to them.The building is from 1895 and with its magnificent carvings and decorations, it is one of hidden gems of the city.The apartment, on the first floor (real second), has a surface of 65 m2 arranged in a living room with space for dining area, kitchen, two bedrooms (of which one double), and bathroom.The living room gives access to a spacious balcony exterior to the street.The apartment needs renovation and has a great potential of becoming a very special flat in a unique environment.
