BARNES presents an extraordinary penthouse that redefines rarity and luxury, majestically positioned in the epicenter of Madrid’s most illustrious neighborhood. Overlooking the iconic Fuente de Cibeles, mere steps from the monumental Plaza de la Independencia, and a whisper away from the serene expanse of Retiro Park, this residence occupies the prime of prime—a location so coveted it stands unrivaled in the city’s storied landscape.
This apotheosic 692 m² penthouse, born from the masterful fusion of two top-floor units, is a symphony of grandeur and possibility. Towering ceilings soar overhead, flooding the space with light and amplifying its palatial proportions, while a sprawling private terrace unveils breathtaking views of Madrid’s historic heart—where every glance captures the elegance of Cibeles and the timeless charm of the city beyond. Sunsets here are not just moments; they are events of unparalleled splendor.
Set within a distinguished estate dating back to 1900, this property marries historic gravitas with modern opulence, its finishes, qualities, and potential decorations meticulously crafted to reflect the prestige of its unrivaled address. From the underfloor geothermal heating to the state-of-the-art home automation and double-glazed sliding windows, every element exudes a level of refinement worthy of this iconic locale. A bespoke reform project (see attached plan) invites you to sculpt this vast canvas into a residence of your dreams—imagine grand living spaces adorned with luxurious materials, a regal library with bespoke detailing, or a dining hall worthy of royalty, all harmonizing with the sophistication of its surroundings.
Five stately bedrooms, six lavish bathrooms, and a versatile playroom flow effortlessly into an expansive living/dining/kitchen area, perfect for both intimate evenings and extravagant soirées—each space designed to uphold the exceptional standards demanded by such a distinguished setting. Modern comforts like air conditioning, electric shutters, a lift, and concierge services elevate the experience, while the east-north-west-south orientation bathes the penthouse in a golden glow from dawn to dusk, enhancing its already exquisite finishes.
In this unparalleled location, the pulse of Madrid is at your doorstep—vibrant cultural hubs, elite institutions, and seamless connectivity via metro, bus, and train stations—yet the residence remains a tranquil retreat above it all. This is not just a home; it is a legacy, a rare jewel in the crown of the city’s most prestigious district, where every detail of quality and décor rises to match the grandeur of its celebrated address.
