Not everything is about money when it comes to buying luxury homes. The location, the characteristics of the asset and its 'amenities' are also decisive factors in choosing one home or another. According to data provided by the consulting firm Savills, which has just launched its luxury residential division in Barcelona, as reported by idealista/news , the buyer of high-end housing in the Catalan capital wants to live in the upper area of the city. city, in (minimum) 150 m2 and with an investment close to one million euros.
According to the Ministry of Transport, Mobility Job Seekers Phone Numbers List and Urban Agenda and the College of Registrars, Barcelona registered the sale of 17,533 homes in 2022. Of these, 2.7% had a price of more than one million euros, while the sale of 7% of the total was closed for 750,000 euros .
By location, the upper area of the city is the most in demand for luxury home buyers in Barcelona, with Pedralbes and specific areas of the Eixample district at the center of demand. The seafront and Diagonal Mar also stand out, as well as the periphery, with Sant Cugat or Sant Just Desvern at the head.
By area, Sarrià-Sant Gervasi is the area that registers the most sales of luxury homes between 3 and 5 million euros (7.1% of the total). 77.8% of luxury home sales made in this area are between 1 and 2 million euros. It is also notable that 45% of luxury or prime housing worth more than 750,000 euros is located in this district.
What else does the luxury home buyer in Barcelona ask for?
Regarding the surface area of these homes, the buyer wants spacious homes and a high level of quality and parking . These apartments, according to Savills, cannot be less than 150 m2, and must have, at a minimum, two or three bedrooms and more than two or three bathrooms. The price will start at 750,000 euros, although the most common thing is for the price to exceed one million euros.
As for the qualities of these homes, they have to be renovated and with a perfect level of maintenance. High qualities in the private and common area. Homes must be customizable in the case of new construction. As a curious fact, international buyers show a high interest and sensitivity towards modernist homes with classic facades.
Finally, the 'amenities' of these homes also play an important role : the private terrace and certain complementary services are valued, such as a swimming pool, green areas or a gym. For its part, the requirement for energy and sustainability certifications is not a determining requirement, “although it will gain importance,” according to Savills.
