The building, constructed in 1946, belongs to that generation of post-war residential architecture distinguished by constructive solidity, generous floor plans and an architectural presence that time has only served to consolidate. A full-time doorman, second floor and a significant share in the property are details that speak of a home with real weight and standing.
The renovation has read this legacy with intelligence. Rather than erasing it, it has amplified it: the original ceiling and wall mouldings, the perimeter panelling and the coffered details are preserved and become the perfect frame for an interior intervention of radically contemporary vocabulary. The tension between the inherited and the new is precisely what makes this home so singular — and so difficult to find anywhere else on the market.
The herringbone oak parquet — laid throughout the entire home with meticulous precision — is the renovation's first declaration of intent. Above it, the grand living room unfolds with exceptional breadth, articulated across different areas that flow without interruption beneath generously high ceilings. The living and dining sequence functions as a single large-format social space, capable of accommodating both the most intimate everyday life and gatherings of any scale. Light, filtered through large windows dressed in fine linen curtains, moves softly through the space throughout the day.
The independent dining room, defined by its own ceiling architecture and a bold pendant light installation of striking design presence, offers proportions conceived for entertaining with distinction. Its visual and physical connection to the kitchen reinforces the logic of the social sequence without sacrificing the identity of each space.
The kitchen is, in material terms, one of the most powerful moments in the home. Floor-to-ceiling grained walnut cabinetry creates a volume of great tactile and visual presence that contrasts masterfully with the central island and worktops in white sintered stone. The latest generation of Bosch appliances are seamlessly integrated into the composition. A kitchen that brings together the warmth of natural wood and the mineral coolness of stone — two worlds that need each other.
The private wing, organised along a long corridor treated as a space in its own right, distributes four generous and well-proportioned bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom. The north-facing orientation ensures a stable and comfortable temperature throughout the year, particularly during the warmer months.
Ducted climate control, a full-time doorman and a comprehensive high-level renovation complete a residential offer without compromise on one of the most valued addresses in Madrid's most desirable district.
