Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This is an elaborate home that impresses with the broad strokes as well as fine ones. An enviable structure with high ceilings and big windows is filled with custom-made furniture that leaves plenty of space to move around. We loved the use of space that puts desks, chairs and bold art pieces in unexpected places – against all odds, it works.

Local guide
About Puerta del Sol
Puerta del Sol is the epicentre of the city and home to Madrid’s most famous meeting point – ‘Oso y El Madroño’, the bear with the strawberry tree. The central square of this neighbourhood is quite literally where all the roads in the Iberian peninsula lead to, which means it’s really hard to get lost if this is where you want to go. This area is popular both day and night, with buskers, natives, and tourists snapping photos of some of Madrid’s most iconic sights.
Explore the area
Local restaurants, cafes, museums, sites and activities, recommended by our community of hosts and travel experts
Eat, shop, walk and explore Plaza Mayor
With some of the most emblematic sights of Madrid, Plaza Mayor should be the first thing to see on your list.
See a show at Madrid’s opera house at Teatro Real
Founded in 1818, this unique European opera house puts on productions with famous names from at home and abroad. Come and see what's on!
Up your gin game at Las Cuevas de Sandó
An underground haven of sophistication, perfect for sipping something ice cold after a long day. Cuevas de Sandó has a highly curated selection of the world's best gins and spirits.
Dine the 'Madrileño' way at La Bola
Locally recommended, La Bola is a typical Spanish restaurant that has had its doors open for more than 150 years.
Visit the Convent of las Descalzas Reales
Rich widows and unmarried daughters used to bring their dowries when they joined, and it was forbidden to sell or display such treasures. Visit the few remaining nuns and curiosities.
Catch a musical at Lope de Vega Theatre
Although this theatre was used as a cinema for many years, it lead the conversion of Gran Via into Madrid's Broadway. A one-stop-shop for a great night out.
Indulge in churros at San Ginés
Churros in Madrid are almost compulsory. We recommend San Ginés, one of the oldest chocolate shops in the city.
Get your avo toast at La Rollerie
A locally recommended brunch café with a beautiful interior. La Rollerie has a good variety of breakfasts and an outside terrace for those want their eggs al fresco.
Mingle with like-minded foodies at San Miguel market
Originally built in 1916, this market encapsulates the contemporary essence of all the types of Spanish cuisine–and with over 10 million visitors a year, it's a real gastronomic hub.
Escape to El Invernadero de Salvador Bachiller
Those who love this restaurant call it a peaceful oasis in Gran Via. Its menu is small, yet concise, popular especially during brunch–and with vegans.
See the postcard sights at Puerta del Sol
From the famous Tio Pepe sign to the statue of Charles III, Puerta del Sol offers some of Madrid's most famous sights in one place.
