How much does a flat in Eixample cost in 2026?
The Eixample is undoubtedly one of Barcelona's most iconic districts. Its octagonal blocks designed by Ildefons Cerda, wide chamfered corners and tree-lined avenues make it one of the city's most sought-after areas to live. But how much does it actually cost to buy a flat in the Eixample in 2026?
According to the latest registered transaction data and listing prices, the average price in the Eixample stands at 7,314 €/m², making it the fourth most expensive district in Barcelona, behind Sarria-Sant Gervasi (8,768 €/m²), Les Corts (8,318 €/m²) and Ciutat Vella (7,402 €/m²).
Prices by neighbourhood in the Eixample
However, talking about the Eixample as a whole can be misleading. The difference between the most expensive and cheapest neighbourhood exceeds 3,500 €/m². Here is the full breakdown:
| Neighbourhood | Average price (€/m²) | 80 m² flat |
|---|---|---|
| Dreta de l'Eixample | 9,871 € | 789,680 € |
| Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample | 7,957 € | 636,560 € |
| Sant Antoni | 6,703 € | 536,240 € |
| Nova Esquerra de l'Eixample | 6,646 € | 531,680 € |
| Fort Pienc | 6,423 € | 513,840 € |
| Sagrada Familia | 6,281 € | 502,480 € |
Dreta: the most expensive Eixample neighbourhood
Dreta de l'Eixample, with an average price of 9,871 €/m², is by far the district's most exclusive neighbourhood. It is home to Passeig de Gracia, Casa Batllo, La Pedrera and the main luxury boutiques. An 80 m² flat in the Dreta costs an average of almost 790,000 €, a figure that can easily exceed one million euros on the most premium streets.
Behind the Dreta, Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample sits at 7,957 €/m². It is an area with a great cultural offer (theatres, galleries) and an established neighbourhood life. Despite being the second most expensive neighbourhood, it offers a more residential and quieter experience than the Dreta.
Sant Antoni and Nova Esquerra: the balance
Sant Antoni (6,703 €/m²) has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years. The renovation of the Sant Antoni market, pedestrianisation of streets and the opening of new shops have revitalised the neighbourhood. Despite rising prices, it remains a more accessible option than the Dreta or Antiga Esquerra.
Nova Esquerra de l'Eixample (6,646 €/m²) offers prices similar to Sant Antoni with a more residential character. It is a well-connected area, with access to Hospital Clinic and the Diagonal, and generally offers larger family-sized flats.
Fort Pienc and Sagrada Familia: the most affordable options
Fort Pienc (6,423 €/m²) is the Eixample's hidden gem. Located on the eastern edge of the district, next to the Estacio del Nord and the Arc de Triomf, it combines an excellent location with prices below the district average. It is an interesting option for those seeking the centrality of the Eixample without paying Dreta prices.
Finally, Sagrada Familia is the Eixample's most affordable neighbourhood at 6,281 €/m². Despite housing Spain's most visited monument, the neighbourhood maintains a residential character with a strong neighbourhood identity. An 80 m² flat here costs around 502,000 €, almost 290,000 € less than in the Dreta.
What to expect in 2026?
The Eixample maintains a moderate upward trend. Demand remains strong from both local and international buyers. The limited supply of new builds (the district is practically fully built) and rent control regulations in stressed market zones contribute to keeping prices on the rise.
For investors, rental yield in the Eixample ranges between 2.5% and 3.5% gross, below the Barcelona average. However, the safety of the investment and historical appreciation compensate for the lower immediate return.
