Unique Luxury Loft with Amazing Location and Views (Wi-Fi)

Perhaps the most imaginative home in Buenos Aires. A wonderful penthouse loft, carved out of the attic space of one of Buenos Aires' finest belle-epoque houses in the glorious Avenida de Mayor, historically the country’s most important tree-lined boulevard. Take your Parisian 'cage' elevator (Argentina's second oldest) to your stained glassed front-door, and enter a whole new world of sun and light and amazing views that stretch down the avenue to Plaza de Mayo, to provide a bird’s eye view, as you sit behind your desk, perhaps waiting for the ghost of Evita waving from her famous balcony, then waiting for the presidential guard to do a march-by. As if in secret, the roof has been lifted of this penthouse loft to create a stunning tri- level loft, filled with light and peace, that oozes cosiness from every pore.

Constructed by a Scandinavian interior-designer, with wit and love to provide perhaps the most original space in Buenos Aires, not least because of its most remarkable position close to everything of significance in the city. 50 yards away is Florida, a car-free street that has always been South America’s most famous shopping street (not least because it housed the only Harrods in the world outside London). One block to the right is the Plaza de Mayo, the most important and beautiful square in Argentina that includes the presidential palace. Across the street, and you can go to the Tortoni, the country’s most famous cafe, once preferred by the likes of Gadel, Piazolla, Borges and Einstein, now by all who want to see original tango being danced and sung. Walking distance from the central business and theatre districts and the antique shops of St Telmo, the chic restaurants of Puerto Madero, your new home is less than a $5 taxi ride from Palermo Viejo and right next to the subway.

Local activities swimming, tennis, walking, sailing, cycling, fishing, horse riding, golf, wind-surfing, roller blading
