Pared and Planted: Madrid

In the Salamanca district of Madrid, Retiro Park is just a short walk from this family-sized apartment and there are lots of public transport options in the area to take you all across the Spanish capital. There’s plenty of seating for the whole group in the stylish living room, plus a record player to set the scene. Those working remotely can hide away at laptop desks in two of the bedrooms. The kitchen has everything you need to cook every meal at home if you’re not too busy exploring the fine-dining restaurants of the grand, 19th-century streets around you.

Home truths:
*Air conditioning is only in the living room and one of the bedrooms.
*This apartment is not on the ground floor, but there is a lift in the building.
*While we love the overall design of this home, it is lacking in natural light.
*Two of the bedrooms have dedicated laptop desks for those working remotely.
*There is no private parking with this apartment, but it's in a very central spot with plenty of public transport in the area.
