This unique property stands out for its exceptional natural light and generous floor area, making the most of every corner of its historic structure. Being entirely exterior-facing, all its rooms enjoy direct natural light, creating a warm and vibrant atmosphere throughout. The property features three spacious en-suite bedrooms, ensuring maximum privacy, as well as a convenient guest bathroom. One of the most valuable elements of the house is its original natural wood parquet flooring, which has been carefully sanded to restore its original splendor and texture, lending an authentic and welcoming character to the property.
The building's architecture is a fundamental piece of Madrid's heritage, designed by the renowned architect José López Sallaberry between the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is a Neo-Plateresque style building that masterfully combines exposed brick with exquisitely detailed stone ornamentation. This space has a fascinating historical legacy, as it housed the printing presses and editorial offices of the prestigious ABC newspaper for almost a century. In the 1990s, the building underwent a spectacular renovation to become the ABC Serrano shopping center, preserving its façade and much of its original grander spaces intact.
Its location is undoubtedly one of the most coveted in the capital, situated in the heart of the prestigious Salamanca district. Located at the intersection of major thoroughfares and possessing an imposing block shape, the building has become one of Madrid's most photographed and iconic landmarks.
