Well located and exclusive

Situated just a few metres from the Retiro Park between Alcalá and O’Donnell streets, the LR15 building is located in an exclusive enclave in "Barrio de Salamanca", considered by many to be the most desirable neighbourhood in Madrid. A short distance from the city’s prime areas, the 1,668m² development is well located near the city’s most important commercial, cultural, leisure and restaurant offers.

An avant-garde edge to the traditional Madrid architecture

The building’s original 1921 façade, with its classic Madrid architecture and typical balconies, will be preserved and renovated, while two newly built floors will be added to give a modern and avant-garde look to the complex.

Modern, well-lit residences

The development provides 11 luxurious residences in three typologies, with sizes ranging from 130m² to 197m². All are well lit through large windows – either classic balcony windows typical of the original construction period or the new glazing added to the upper floors.

The open-plan living-dining rooms are fully integrated in a seamless and elegant way, accompanied by beautiful and modern designer kitchen. Bedrooms are bright, uncluttered, spacious and relaxing.

A sense of luxury

The main entrance hall is bright, clean and understated, making use of mirrors and marble to provide a sense of luxury. The detailing of the common areas is highly heritage-sensitive because of the building’s protected façade, the design complementing the classic style that is characteristic of the area.

Diverse amenities and an active ground floor

The scheme provides a diverse range of residential amenities to complement the comfortable and stylish residences, including a modern gym with a wellness area, large storage rooms and a three-level courtyard with landscaped garden areas and modern, geometric lighting. Meanwhile, 144m² of commercial space is provided at ground floor level to give the building an active and vibrant street frontage.

Chapman Taylor is designing this sensitive and elegant residential refurbishment on behalf of Belgian developers EQUILIS.
