What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Spain?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Spain is like. They answered...
"A top floor apartment of 1,850 square feet with two terraces totalling about 400 square feet. It is not typical because top floor apartments are very hard to find," said another expat in Barcelona, Spain.
"A typical expat home or apartment in Spain typically has plenty of natural light, with windows overlooking surrounding streets, squares, and parks. Many feature tiled or hardwood floors, and contemporary design elements, like minimalist furniture and neutral colors. Kitchens are usually equipped with stainless steel appliances and plenty of storage space. Expats often opt for modern conveniences like air conditioning, central heating, and Wi-Fi and cable TV access. Balconies and terraces, often with stunning views, are common and provide plenty of outdoor living space," wrote a member who made the move to Spain.
