Cultural heritage
With two towers crowned by pinnacles and a gallery of segmental arches on the top floor, this historicist-style building of 1915 reminds one of monumental works. Only the wall-base is made from stone, however, the rest being artificial or stucco.
Parked in front of the house, it was usual to see one of the first cars to be licensed in the city: B-28, belonging to Doctor Cera, the second doctor in Barcelona to go out and visit patients in their homes. An automobile enthusiast, he was a founding member and the chair of the RACC.

Observacions
Edifici de l'any 1914, situat en una cantonada, amb una de les façanes flanquejada per dies grans torres de planta quadrada, coronades per sengles pinacles de pissarra, molt aguts. Els principals elements ornamentals són les impostes que marquen els forjats de cada pis, els guardapols motllurats de referència gòtica, i els prominents voladissos.
