Sitting in the trendy district of Malasaña, this stylish apartment will have you dining on Madrid's finest cuisine and indulging in alternative cafe culture. In every direction of your front door, history awaits. Bring your sketchbook to the nearby Museo del Romanticismo, then photograph the neoclassical architecture of the Calle Gran Vía – lavishly lined with theatres, cinemas, and shops. This wonderfully wild home is a complete contrast to the city outside. Wake up beneath high ceilings and wander past lush house plants into your open-plan living space, where you'll start each day with a Spanish breakfast. Play some records while you discuss your daily itinerary, or focus on some work at one of two desks here. We think that this is the perfect place to enjoy an afternoon siesta, so why not take a nap or watch a Netflix movie with your family? Then, hop under a rain shower and get dressed in this walk-in wardrobe before heading out for the evening.
