Madrid, Villas and Luxury Homes for sale - Prestigious Properties in Madrid

Luxury real estate in Madrid is divided into several prime locations: the Austrian Madrid started by the Hapsburgs in the 16th century characterised by the Plaza Mayor, the Palacio Real, the Almudena Cathedral and the Opera. This tranquil and prestigious location has much to offer: history, shopping, restaurants, green spaces and exclusive apartments. Another important zone of Madrid is that of the Bourbons, built during the 18th and 19th centuries. Starting with King Carlo III's ambitions projects including the Museo Prado and the Parque del Retiro, and ending in the 19th century with the luxury properties found in the Salamanca district where elegant shops, wide avenues, interesting museums and historical buildings make it one of the most tradtional and exclusive neighbourhoods in Madrid. The third side to the city is linked to its famous nightlife, but if you want to remain close to the buzzing areas of Chueca and Malasaña yet still get some sleep, you could buy a luxury home in an international “barrio” such as Alonso Martinez. Alternatively head for the modern residential district of Chamartin or choose an exclusive, contemporary property in the north-west neighbourhoods of Pozuelo de Alacon, Majadahonds and Las Rozas. In the north-east don't miss the luxury homes of Moraleja.
