Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
With El Retiro Park and the grand boulevards of Salamanca all within walking distance, the upmarket residential neighbourhood of Lista is the place to be. Discover it all from this stylish apartment right in the heart of it all. Not that you'd know it sat in the tranquil shared garden – a rare find for a home this central. While we can't fault the apartment's sophisticated interiors, the last two bedrooms feel a little compact compared to the main bedroom, but there's still everything you need for a comfortable night's sleep. The three dedicated desk spaces will be handy, too, for anyone planning to work or study.

- No time for average – We reject thousands of homes worldwide, so you don't have to.

Local guide
About Salamanca
Salamanca is Madrid’s most glamorous and prestigious quarter. Usually associated with aristocratic façades, wide avenues, and luxurious living (atypical for Madrid’s cosy centre), the neighbourhood attracts domestic and international elite. It’s also home to many embassies and private schools, as well as niche museums and designer boutiques along its ‘Golden Mile’. The demanding clientele has made the food scene equally exclusive, but while you’re likely to find quite a few Michelin-star restaurants in the area, there are lots of relaxed tapas bars for those less willing to splash the cash.
