A lofty space: the magic of a Brutalist penthouse
Description
‘A vital manifesto of a free architecture open to the senses, far removed from intellectual conventions’, by Fernando Higueras and Antonio Miró. Located in one of the most singular jewels of Madrid architecture: the building designed in the 1970s by Fernando Higueras and Antonio Miró, two of the most visionary architects of their time.
Conceived as an urban refuge, this masterpiece of brutalism breaks with convention by fusing concrete with lush vegetation, creating a unique microclimate in the heart of Madrid. A space of sculptural forms and gravity-defying cantilevers, where nature intertwines with architecture and transforms each terrace into a suspended garden.
Here, concrete is humanised through light and vegetation, creating an environment that transcends the concept of inhabiting to become a sensorial experience.
‘A building between party walls that adheres at all times to the boundaries (heights, setbacks, etc.) set by the city council’ Fernando Higueras and Antonio Miró.
The high-quality refurbishment of this penthouse respects the original spirit of the building, enhancing its timeless character and elevating the living experience into a habitable work of art. It will be available July 2025.
It will be available July 2025.
Layout:
A balance between brutalism and nature.
From the entrance, the spaces follow one after the other in a sequence conceived for comfort and connection with the environment.
The social area opens onto one of the iconic garden terraces, where the vegetation takes centre stage and filters the light in a play of organic shadows.
The designer kitchen, with a central island and top-of-the-range appliances, fuses aesthetics and functionality in an environment designed for sharing. The laundry room, in a separate space, provides practicality and order.In the private area, two en-suite bedrooms with refined lines offer maximum comfort.
The master suite, with direct access to the terrace, becomes a personal sanctuary where light and vegetation envelop the space in a serene atmosphere.

This enclave connects perfectly with Conde Duque, Chamberí and Malasaña, absorbing the classic elegance, bohemian energy and avant-garde spirit of these neighborhoods, making it one of the trendiest and most desirable locations in Madrid. Framed by Princesa, Gran Vía, Fuencarral and Carranza, it is located in a vibrant environment, with an infinite offer of culture, vintage stores and cosmopolitan gastronomy. Malasaña, cradle of the Movida Madrileña, preserves its rebellious and historical essence with icons such as El Penta, Vía Láctea and the Plaza del Dos de Mayo, symbol of Madrid’s resistance. A neighborhood with soul, where every corner is part of history.
Its double orientation, as well as the vegetation that surrounds it, give this property luminosity throughout the day, as well as an incomparable tranquillity.
This building is an icon of Madrid architecture. It is not only a place to live, it is an architectural manifesto. Fernando Higueras and Antonio Miró imagined a way of living that broke with convention, where the exposed concrete structure merges with the vegetation in a perfect dialogue between brutalism and bioclimatics. Their design, ahead of its time, responded to a visionary philosophy: to create an ecosystem within the city, where overhangs and vertical gardens generate privacy, freshness and well-being. A living architecture that defies the passage of time and remains a benchmark for those seeking a different way of living, more sensory, more connected to the essence of space. An opportunity to acquire a brand new renovated property, with high qualities, garden, parking space and concierge 24 h. in one of the most emblematic buildings of “brutalist” architecture.
High quality integral reform that redistributes and optimizes the space, with a modern design eliminating architectural barriers as much as possible to give fluidity and luminosity to the different rooms. Thermal and acoustic insulation, hidden air conditioning, kitchen equipped with high-end appliances, laundry in separate space, two terraces, garden, garage and concierge 24 hours.
The Malasaña-Universidad neighbourhood is always a safe bet, due to its high demand and the investment that has been made in recent times in the refurbishment and renovation of façades, streets and squares. This is a great opportunity to acquire a very unique property surrounded by history and with the investment potential of the new real estate investment in Plaza de España, one of the driving forces of the capital, which will increase the value of the whole area.
