Can Ricart Lofts is located within the great Parc Central del Poblenou and embodies the spirit of a Smart City: spacious, sustainable, and creative environments where you can reconnect with neighborhood life. An oasis of calm featuring four pedestrian blocks with generous open spaces, combining restored historic buildings with new, spectacularly designed projects. Lofts Nave A The largest of the four historic constructions, Nave A, offers 12 lofts, including 2 triplex units, and features a communal swimming pool. The original arches of the heritage façades have been restored, and the original doors reinterpreted to create bright, welcoming entrances. The rear façade has been moved back to create a pleasant, intimate longitudinal passage. Lofts Nave B Nave B offers 5 lofts next to the iconic restored chimney of Can Ricart. Its façades preserve the original arches, now transformed into large windows and entrance doors. Each loft includes private interior terraces to enjoy the Mediterranean sky in complete privacy.

They feature impressive volumes, interior terraces, private gardens, double-height ceilings with skylights, and an open mezzanine ideal as a study or workspace. Lofts Nave D Nave D is the most reminiscent of a classic American loft, with great ceiling heights, large windows along the entire façade, and a soft, filtered light. The project includes two ground-floor lofts, and on the second floor, one single-level loft and one duplex with a large terrace. The dynamic 22@ technological district attracts talent, digital nomads, start-ups, and major tech companies. The trendy Poblenou neighborhood offers a fascinating blend of hi-tech firms, universities, student residences, hotels, parks, and a rich cultural and leisure scene. #ref:CBE01260
