2-bedroom duplex apartment for sale in a historical building in Madrid

Newly renovated duplex apartment for sale in a beautifully restored historical building next to Retiro Park, Madrid.

The Palacete of Ramón and Cajal was the main residence of Ramon y Caja, winner of the Nobel Prize in Medicine, and the place where he set up his laboratory in which he worked during last years of his life. The historical value of this property is therefore second to none and the building has been completely restored to create an exclusive residential complex.

The residences offer elegance, historical value and excellent facilities such as parking and storage rooms. The building is opposite the Astrological Observatory, a natural continuation of Retiro Park, and the apartments therefore enjoy fantastic green and leafy views. The building has a traditional façade with classical elements and some parts of the building have been also recovered including the staircase and ceiling moulds in the apartments.

This 2-bedroom duplex unit offers quality, elegance and tranquillity. As we walk into the property, we find a spacious lobby with a large open kitchen and dining area on the left and an airy living area to the right. This floor enjoys 5 large windows overlooking the interior beautiful garden.

The sleeping area is located upstairs with the master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a second bedroom and bathroom.

A private communal garden provides an oasis in the middle of busy life of the city and the interior patio will be the canvas of a painting representing one of Ramon y Cajal´s scientific sketches. The location is a privilege: very well connected to the rest of the city and the cultural hub of Paseo del Arte is just around the corner.
