Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
A light-filled Madrid apartment where beach-inspired decor feels pleasingly out of place – and somehow works. The living area opens directly onto a sunny terrace, making it easy to drift between cooking, a late lunch in the sun, and an evening glass of wine as the city hums below. A record player adds a characterful note to the living space. Step outside and you're a seven-minute walk from the Temple of Debod, a 2nd-century BC Egyptian temple transplanted to the edge of Parque del Oeste – one of Madrid's more quietly remarkable sights.

About Argüelles
Argüelles is a residential neighborhood of Madrid, popular with young professionals and students. It’s a green and quiet area, surrounded by parks and universities. You won’t see many tourists here – none of Madrid’s famous attractions are located in the immediate vicinity. However, the area is well-connected and you can get to the busy centre in less than 30 minutes.
