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

A smarter, more sophisticated home in this sought-after part of Salamanca, you're unlikely to find. Set in a beautifully renovated period building, it comes with 19th Century high ceilings, tall windows and Juliet balconies, but also with a generous helping of modern glamour. Think chic furnishings, gorgeous wood floors and a striking flame effect fire built into panelling in the living room wall. We love the flow here, with a spacious, sociable living room moving through to a dining area with a sleek, contemporary kitchen off it. There's everything you'll need to cook special meals at home and views out over the street from one side and over the pretty, internal courtyard to the other. Two big bedrooms and bathrooms offer enough space for a group of up six, and it's perfect for a family or a group of friends here to experience this beautiful city. And have we mentioned the added bonuses in this building? Grab a bottle of wine in the evening and head up to the lovely shared roof deck, or spend the afternoon bobbing around in the communal rooftop pool. There's even a fitness room if you're feeling inspired.
