Do the Twist Madrid

Property Description

On a quiet, cobbled street where pavement cafés spill out onto the road, this apartment puts you a stone’s throw from the central Plaza Mayor. Foodies will enjoy the close proximity to Saint Michael Market, a haven of fresh produce and stalls selling street food and local wine. The streets here are packed with late-night tapas bars and trendy eateries, and if you want to get your culture fix at the world-famous Prado, it’s four stops on the metro from Sol (a six-minute walk away).

The building dates back to 1915, and it still retains the old-world charm of a traditional Madrid apartment with big windows letting the sunlight stream in. French-style doors open up to the wrought-iron Juliet balcony, perfect for people-watching on your leafy street. If you’ve stocked up on fresh, local produce from Saint Michael Market (five minutes’ walk away), then you’ll be glad of the full kitchen, tucked away, galley-style.

Home truths:

*The bedroom has a large bed for a good night's sleep but it does limit space, we'd recommend travelling light
