Description

Three west-facing balconies line the façade of this 167 sqm residence in Recoletos, bringing afternoon light into the street-facing rooms and creating a direct connection with the surrounding neighbourhood. Positioned on an exterior-facing third floor, the property is currently undergoing a comprehensive renovation.

Three-metre ceilings lend the interiors a notable sense of volume. The new scheme builds on these proportions to introduce a contemporary floor plan while retaining the architectural setting of the building’s classical façade.

A generous living and dining room will form the principal reception space, accompanied by a fully equipped kitchen. A separate TV room introduces a second, more informal setting, allowing everyday relaxation and entertaining to occupy distinct areas of the home.

The private accommodation comprises three double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom. This arrangement gives every bedroom a high degree of independence and provides equally considered accommodation for residents and guests.

The transformation extends beyond the apartment itself. An approved comprehensive refurbishment of the building includes the staircase, entrance lobby and façade, followed by the replacement of both lift cabins. Work has already begun in the communal areas and will be supervised by Studio Lesarc.

The result will bring the renovation of the residence and the renewal of the building’s principal communal spaces together, while preserving the classical architectural presence that characterises the property.

Recoletos provides one of Salamanca’s most established residential settings. Retiro Park, Puerta de Alcalá and Serrano are all nearby, alongside boutiques, galleries, restaurants and the everyday amenities associated with this part of Madrid.

Once the works are complete, both residence and building will have evolved in parallel: 167 sqm of renewed interiors, three private suites, distinct reception spaces and three street-facing balconies within an updated classical setting.
