Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Located just above Gran Via in the trendy Chueca neighbourhood, this apartment is the sort of place you look forward to returning to after a long day of sightseeing. The interior design is impressive for its unshowy restraint, with the chandelier above the dining table the only example of decadence. Everything else feels rather subtle, from the sleek grey kitchen and multi-layered coffee table in the living room to the parquet panels above the bed in the master suite. The surrounding neighbourhood is renowned for its tapas bars, lively nightlife and street markets, but many of the Spanish capital's main attractions are close by, too. The home sits pretty much equidistant between Parque de El Retiro and Palacio Real de Madrid, with each taking about fifteen minutes on foot to reach.

About Chueca
Chueca is the epicentre of LGBT+ culture and nightlife in Madrid. By day, this bohemian neighbourhood is home to cobbled streets fringed with ochre-hued buildings, sidewalk cafes and local shops catering to the gay community. But at night, it truly comes alive – stores stay open late and the bars even later.
