Mansions for sale in the city of Madrid

Within the city, the most coveted detached houses sit in El Viso, a garden neighbourhood close to the Paseo de la Castellana. In the Salamanca district, a few palatial townhouses still stand among elegant apartment buildings, and each one carries a small piece of the city's history.

To the north-west, Puerta de Hierro and Aravaca offer larger plots and mature gardens while keeping the centre within easy reach. When you compare Madrid mansions for sale, look closely at the details that make city life comfortable.

• Privacy and security: walls, gated access and a discreet approach.
• Outdoor space that works in summer: shade, terraces and a pool.
• Heritage protection on older townhouses, which can limit alterations.
• Parking, staff quarters and room for guests.

Estates on the edge of the capital

Many buyers look just beyond the city limits. La Moraleja, to the north, is known for gated streets, large gardens and schools close by, while Somosaguas and Pozuelo de Alarcón, to the west, offer a similar calm with a short drive into the centre.

Further out, the foothills of the Sierra de Guadarrama suit those who want space, stone and mountain air, with the capital still within reach for the working week.
