GRÀCIA: THE VILLAGE INSIDE THE CITY
Gràcia is a big city neighborhood that’s small enough to feel like home. It’s a place where people connect – a village that defines itself by being different. Gràcia proudly keeps its traditions but embraces bohemian creativity. It’s an international community with a deeply rooted Catalan character. It’s a mosaic of cultures that forms an unmistakable single picture. This city village celebrates individualism and celebrates community. In its famous annual fair, neighbors, businesses and schools work hand-in-hand to drape the district in fantastic decorations. Every street is unique. But Gràcia comes together as one.

FROM INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE TO MODERN HOMES
THE PROPERTY
The new Norvet property on Carrer Rabassa 63-65 stands out in its neighborhood. It offers the openness and dimensions of a former factory plus a desirable residential location. This rare combination creates a remarkable development opportunity: capacious lofts with private parking in an in-demand area. Rabassa unlocks freedom. Its living spaces filled with natural light open up new possibilities to truly enjoy your city lifestyle.
A historical study of the property has revealed its story. In the 1920s, a Barcelona businessman – Don Mariano Galindo Ginénez-Brutón – moved his rubber factory to the site from the district of Sarriá, despite the concerns of some neighbors. Rabassa later passed into the hands of a local family who have worked with Norvet to transform their inheritance into homes. Rabassa’s story continues. The next chapter is yours.
