Wohnung Am Paseo De Las Delicias

The alarm clock rings, and when you open your eyes, you realize something that, living in Madrid, seems almost miraculous: there’s an immense silence. Being on the eighth floor, the noise of cars, buses, or the hustle and bustle of the Paseo de las Delicias simply doesn’t reach you. There’s a distance between your family and the street that grants you incredible peace to start the morning without any shocks or stress. You get out of bed and don’t need to fumble for the light switch. Natural light is already illuminating your room. That is, without a doubt, the most beautiful quality of this apartment. Because it’s such a high floor and there aren’t any buildings attached to cast shadows, the sun streams through the windows first thing in the morning. This brightness floods the spaces and gives you a warmth that instantly lifts your spirits. You walk towards the living room and feel the warm floor beneath your feet. Since the apartment has been completely renovated, everything is so easy. Those of us with families know that dealing with renovations and children is a real headache.

The rooms flow naturally, the insulation is modern, and everything is designed for comfortable living. The 126 square meters of living space are noticeable because you can all be getting ready at the same time without bumping into each other. You sip your coffee looking out the window, gazing at the open sky, enjoying the knowledge that everything in the house is new, practical, and works perfectly. It’s time to head out into the world. You grab your backpacks, take the elevator down, and walk through the entrance of your building, a very well-maintained building that has stood since 1956. And here comes the stark contrast of daily life: as you step onto the sidewalk at Glorieta de Luca de Tena number 3, you go from the absolute silence of your home to the vibrant life of the neighborhood. You have traditional shops, bakeries, and a supermarket...
