Since the 1930s, some wealthy families in search of the peacefulness they didn’t find in the then center of Madrid, chose this location to acquire large estates and build their private villas. For many years now, the area has been fully integrated into the city, although it has always preserved that halo of exclusivity and quiet elegance.

If we wander through its streets, we will find unique mansions, some of them currently occupied by embassies and institutional headquarters, large villas and luxury developments with beautiful green areas. A highly coveted location and homes of extraordinary value. There are few options to enjoy an exceptional lifestyle in the center of a large city. That’s the reason why the homes at Paseo de la Habana 147 are so special and unique in the city of Madrid.

Just like the area where it is located, the architectural complex of Paseo de la Habana 147 also has its history. To discover it, let's go back to the 1930's, when Mr. José de Oñate acquired an estate of more than 7,500sqm to build a luxurious mansion, where together with his wife and their seven children, he could spend long periods of time. Even then, the family appreciated the value of the tranquility and privacy offered by this estate and its elegant residence, surrounded by trees, gardens and green orchards. They named it "La Hortalaya", the root hortal meaning “orchard”.

Almost 100 years later, in this same location has been built the Paseo de la Habana 147 residential complex. Much has changed in almost a century, but the site not only has not lost any of its charm and elegance, but has gained in value, being one of the most expensive and coveted locations in the city.
