Excellent renovated property in Recoletos

Recoletos is the prime area of the Salamanca District, the closest area to El Retiro, and specifically this residence is just steps away from the largest and most representative park in Madrid. The Salamanca District is one of the most significant areas of Madrid, both for its distinctive layout and the residents who have traditionally inhabited its emblematic streets. Its construction dates back to the second half of the 19th century and is part of the urban expansion carried out during the reign of Isabel II. The precursor to whom it owes its name was the Malagueño José de Salamanca y Mayol, Marquis of Salamanca, who conceived a new location with a carefully planned development to house the aristocratic and bourgeois classes of Madrid. Of a 19th-century style, it is characterized by its special regular grid layout with perpendicular streets. Its buildings are of particular interest due to their architectural quality and the beauty of their facades. Traditionally, Salamanca was a residential area, especially inhabited by the country's political and economic elites. In the last fifty years, this residential character coexists with other activities such as business, diplomatic, and especially commercial, as it is one of the most important luxury fashion areas in the capital. The Parque del Buen Retiro is the true protagonist of this neighborhood of Madrid, which is bordered by Calle de Alcalá and Calle O'Donnell on the northern end, Calle Doctor Esquerdo to the east, Avenida del Mediterráneo and Paseo de Reina Cristina to the south, and Calle Alfonso XII on the western end.
