Amenities and special features of this house

The Petit Palais constitutes an architectural jewel, located in front of the Royal Palace of Pardo, an emblematic site with a vast history, built at the end of the 19th century by Doña María del Carmen de Aragón-Azlor e Idiáquez, XV Duchess of Villahermosa together with her husband, who had their main residence in Madrid in the Palacio de Villahermosa, currently the Thyssen Bornemisza Museum. They were patrons of the arts and lovers of culture. The building was the second residence of the Dukes where they spent their free time. Characterized by its Neoclassical lines echoing the ancient architecture of the Habsburgs in Spain. The Duchy of Villahermosa is one of the main titles of nobility in Spain, created in 1476 by Juan II of Aragón, in favor of his son Alonso de Aragón, stepbrother of Fernando el Católico. It was granted first class greatness in 1520 by Emperor Charles V. It is a house where, as we enter, we are greeted by an area of ​​Hungary, with magical gardens with different statues, a magnificent wrought iron gazebo with a beautiful central sculpture, one of the few that remain original from such an ancient period, and in which, Through a staircase we access the Palace. Upon entering, we are surprised by the luxury of its interior, original, with furniture from all eras that begin with the Renaissance and end in the 19th and early 20th centuries. All the rooms are divided thematically, characterized by its old fireplace, still in use, numerous works of art full of beauty, tapestries that are no longer made today, antique furniture, frescoes on tapestries with a floral romantic style in keeping with the natural environment and a spectacular staircase in the main hall where one of the main elements in her rest are the two huge mirrors in which she saw herself reflected when she went up to her rooms. This house still has those main elements. It is a jewel to walk through its rooms, which are brighter, darker, cooler and warmer depending on the time of year. We observe immense rooms with privacy in each one of them, it offers us different spaces to read, to have tea, to receive friends, for an intimate or group dinner and a no less important detail, the beautiful glass gallery, devised in times of Alfonso XIII in order to have privacy, without losing the possibility of looking outwards. In short, it is a real privilege to have this gift of our history and to be able to enjoy it.

El Pardo: Location and surroundings of this property

A few kilometers from Madrid is the Royal Site of El Pardo, a place of great heritage and ecological wealth. Former kings' hunting ground, the forest of the place reaches 13,000 hectares. Without a doubt, its beautiful palace stands out among so much beauty and history. The El Pardo palace was originally a hunting lodge for King Enrique III (1405), increased by Carlos V and his son Felipe II and by the Bourbons Felipe V, Carlos III and Carlos IV, who gave it its current shape on Plans by Francesco Sabatini. Fuencarral-El Pardo is one of the 21 districts that make up the city of Madrid. Administratively it is divided into the neighborhoods of El Pardo (81), Fuentelarreina (82), Peñagrande (83), Pilar (84), La Paz (85), Valverde (86), Mirasierra (87) and El Goloso (88). This district is the largest, but not the most populated. As Monte de El Pardo is found within it, the urbanized areas represent less than 50% of the district. It is also a business district, as many large companies have their headquarters there. It represents the north end of the city and is one of the greenest as it is close to the border between the city and the wooded areas of the north. To the north, it borders the municipalities of Hoyo de Manzanares, Colmenar Viejo and Tres Cantos. To the northeast, it borders the Soto de Viñuelas urbanization (Tres Cantos), the municipality of San Sebastián de los Reyes (including the Ciudalcampo urbanization, the Fuente del Fresno urbanization, the La Granjilla urbanization, and the Dehesa Boyal) and that of Alcobendas, the Monte de Valdelatas, the division that forms in Cantoblanco through the M-616 El Goloso-Alcobendas highway, and the urban continuum that forms at the height of the Telefónica District with the La Moraleja Business Park through the M- 603 Fuencarral-Alcobendas and the road that leads to Avenida del Monte Valdelatas in Alcobenda), in the neighborhoods of El Pardo, El Goloso and Las Tablas. To the northwest, it borders the population center of Las Matas (Las Rozas de Madrid), the population center of Los Peñascales and the Finca El Pendolero (Torrelodones). To the south, it borders the Tetuán district (in the Valdeacederas neighborhood) separated by Villaamil street in the El Pilar neighborhood, and with the Moncloa-Aravaca district. To the southeast, it borders the Tetuán district (in the Almenara neighborhood), separated by Sinesio Delgado street (even numbers are part of Fuencarral-El Pardo) in the La Paz neighborhood. To the southwest, it borders the Moncloa-Aravaca district separated by the La Florida urbanization farm and the M-40 highway in the El Pardo neighborhood, and the division of Arroyofresno street together with the intersection formed by the M- 605 (Carretera de El Pardo) and M-30 in the Fuentelarreina neighborhood (bordering on the Ciudad Puerta de Hierro residential area). To the east, it borders the Hortaleza district (bordering on the Sanchinarro area), separated by the A-1 in the Las Tablas area, and the Chamartín district (bordering on the Castilla neighborhood) in the La Paz, separated by the M-30 motorway and Paseo de la Castellana (the odd numbers are part of Fuencarral-El Pardo in this section). To the west, it borders the municipality of Las Rozas de Madrid in the El Pardo neighborhood (including the population center of Mingorrubio).
