Why is it masculine?
Balcón is masculine. While the word does derive from Italian "balcone," the masculine gender is primarily explained by Spanish's default gender assignment rules for words ending in "-ón." In Spanish, nouns ending in "-ón" are typically masculine (e.g., "corazón," "león," "ratón"). The Italian source "balcone" was also masculine, which reinforced this pattern when the word was borrowed into Spanish.
