Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

Inspired by the open space and golden colours of the Sahara, this dreamy apartment immediately feels like home. Drift through the open-plan living area and you won't believe all that space belongs to you. It blends the privacy of a rural retreat with the convenience of city comforts. Topping off the palatial layout, a spacious balcony welcomes you to feel the energy of the city. But, just feeling the vibrancy of Madrid isn't enough. The energising metropolis is a vivacious mix of culture and charisma that deserves to be witnessed first-hand. If you're a history enthusiast, various museums are dotted around the city. For a more lively scene, Madrid is famous for the plethora of upbeat bars and clubs that go until the early hours of the morning. However you spend your days, make sure to try out the abundance of enticing restaurants. Tapas and paella are two obvious choices for mains, complemented by the sugary goodness of chocolate churros. If a glass of sangria enhances the flavour, so be it.
