In the refined setting of La Moraleja, this newly built villa stands as a study in balance between openness and privacy. The entrance leads into a central hall that distributes the living spaces with clarity, where natural light and volume define the atmosphere. The ground floor flows from a formal living room into a dining area and a modern kitchen, all connected by wide openings that extend the interior toward the terrace and garden. Large windows frame the surroundings while maintaining a sense of containment and calm. The upper floor is organized around a landing that opens to the bedrooms, each with considered proportions and finishes. The primary suite includes a dressing room and a bathroom finished in natural stone, while the additional bedrooms share access to two further bathrooms. Throughout, materials such as oak flooring and textured plaster walls contribute to an understated yet precise architectural language.

La Moraleja is technically not Madrid — it sits in the municipality of Alcobendas, about 15 km north of the city via the A-1 motorway — but it functions as the international corporate family's default answer to "where do we live while our kids go to school in English?" The district is a collection of gated residential estates developed from the 1970s onward, with villas on 1,000–5,000 m² plots, private gardens, pools, and the highest concentration of English- and other foreign-language international schools in all of Spain (ICS, Runnymede, King's College, Brewster, Colegio Base, the Lycée Français Saint-Exupéry campus — all within 1 km of each other). It is suburban in the American sense, not the Spanish: you drive everywhere, the streets are leafy, and the social fabric runs through the school gates and the Club de Campo La Moraleja golf clubhouse.
