About

Penthouse located in one of Madrid's most cosmopolitan, elegant, and vibrant enclaves. Situated in the heart of the Justicia neighborhood, a few steps from Plaza de Santa Bárbara and Plaza de la Villa de París, in a privileged position that naturally connects with the distinguished character of Chamberí and the cultural vitality of the historic center. This environment, one of the most appreciated in the city, combines stately architecture, art galleries, and some of Madrid's most renowned restaurants, cafes, and pastry shops, along with unique boutiques and fashion stores that have made the neighborhood a benchmark for style and contemporary urban living. Located on the sixth floor of a unique building from the early last century, in a suggestive triangle of blocks that evokes the character of some Parisian central neighborhoods. Under this premise, one of Madrid's most recognized architecture and interior design studios—with projects regularly published in magazines like AD or Elle Decoration—has carried out a complete renovation of the home. The result is a carefully balanced blend of the building's classic and historicist language with contemporary and modern design, creating an exclusive, elegant, and highly personal atmosphere. To achieve this, various original elements of the home have been salvaged, preserved, and restored. Plaster moldings, wooden carpentry, brass hardware, flooring, and stained glass coexist with carefully integrated new elements, establishing a subtle dialogue between tradition and contemporaneity that gives the ensemble a unique character. Particularly noteworthy is the recovery of the original colored hydraulic concrete tessellation flooring, of great interest for its rarity and compositional richness, being an unusual type of flooring in Madrid architecture of the early 20th century. The home Upon this careful restoration of original elements, the home unfolds, conceived as a serene and luminous space where architecture and interior design dialogue naturally. The 102m2 cadastral home is organized around a spacious and bright main area where the hall, living room, dining room, and kitchen coexist naturally in a single space. Light, a constant protagonist, enters through the terrace and is projected onto the carefully selected materials and pieces in the interior design project. The terrace, intimate and very quiet, functions as a natural extension of the living room, offering a true haven of tranquility in one of Madrid's best areas. The private area consists of two bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of them en-suite, conceived with the same attention to detail and quality of finishes that characterizes the entire home. Due to its character, location, and scale, this penthouse is especially suited for what the French call a pied-à-terre: a refined urban residence, designed to enjoy the city on extended stays with the comfort and charm of one's own home. Furniture, wall sconces, and decorative art pieces selected from antique dealers and flea markets in Italy, France, and Spain complete the project, creating a unique piece: a penthouse designed for those who value architecture, design, and the privilege of living the city in one of Madrid's most exclusive neighborhoods.
