Calling on the influences of Indonesian beaches in its calm decor, this stylish apartment in Madrid’s Almagro neighbourhood is a treat for those looking to experience the best of the city’s art and culture. Often compared to London’s upscale South Kensington district, Almagro is packed full of galleries, grand mansions and foreign embassies, as well as countless fine-dining restaurants to tempt your tastebuds. Open and bright, the home’s main living area is punctuated by soothing neutral tones reminiscent of sand, land and sea with vibrant pops of green in the houseplants and a large bookcase framing the room. Chill out here with a glass of wine while a record plays or catch up on your creative work at one of the desk spaces provided. The two bedrooms, meanwhile, are just as peaceful with their earthy tones and boho-chic accents, while the two sleek bathrooms and their rainfall showers are ready to pamper and prepare you for a day of relaxing bliss. When it comes to sightseeing, walk three minutes to visit the stunning Sorolla Museum or stroll twenty-five minutes to enjoy some retail therapy along the famous Gran Vía. You’re also just under a half hour’s walk from El Retiro Park, while the National Museum of Romanticism is fifteen minutes away on foot.
