The Pedralbes neighbourhood is synonymous with exclusivity, elegance and tranquillity. Located in the upper area of Barcelona, next to the hillside of Collserola, it is one of the most prestigious and sought-after residential areas in the city. Surrounded by wide tree-lined avenues, private gardens and majestic properties, Pedralbes offers a distinguished lifestyle, in a green environment and perfectly connected to the city centre.
Its history dates back to the fourteenth century, when the Monastery of Pedralbes was founded, a Gothic complex of great historical and architectural value that still today marks the serene and stately character of the neighbourhood. During the 20th century, Pedralbes established itself as the place of residence of the wealthiest families in Barcelona, and today combines tradition and modernity in a high-quality urban environment.
The neighbourhood is home to luxury and high-end homes: spectacular single-family houses with gardens and swimming pools, new-build estates with communal services, and spacious flats with terraces and unobstructed views over the city and the sea. Its low population density and landscaped surroundings make it one of the most exclusive places to live in Barcelona.
Pedralbes also stands out for its excellent network of services and facilities. Here you will find some of the most prestigious international schools (such as St. Peter's School, St. Paul's School or the Lycée Français), as well as renowned universities and business schools, such as ESADE and IESE. It has private sports clubs such as the Real Club de Polo or the Real Club de Tenis Barcelona, as well as parks such as the Pedralbes Gardens, ideal for enjoying the outdoors. In terms of connectivity, Pedralbes offers easy access to the main roads of the city, such as Avenida Diagonal and Ronda de Dalt, as well as a good network of buses and private transport. Barcelona-El Prat Airport is less than a 20-minute drive away. Living in Pedralbes means choosing the highest quality of life in Barcelona: privacy, security, nature and prestige, all just a few minutes from the heart of the city.
