And how you can live it (and invest in it) with Ancana.
Madrid: It’s not just a city. It’s a way of life. Picture yourself having your first coffee of the day on a terrace overlooking Retiro Park, walking to an art gallery through streets steeped in history, lunching at a gourmet market, and ending the day with a glass of wine on the rooftop of a century-old building. Madrid isn’t visited—it’s lived.
This city isn’t just Spain’s political capital; it’s also its emotional, cultural, and gastronomic heart. Here, past and present coexist with unmatched elegance, and each season brings a new reason to fall in love: from autumn colors in El Retiro to summer festivals along Gran Vía. And today, more than ever, it’s also a strategic destination for investment.
Why Madrid is attracting international investors
In recent years, Madrid has established itself as one of Europe’s most stable and attractive real estate markets. This is due to a combination of proven factors:
- Sustained appreciation: in recent years, central neighborhoods like Retiro, Salamanca, and Chamberí have experienced growth exceeding 7% annually (Retiro reached +9.4%, Salamanca and Chamberí around +9%)
- High demand for tourist and short-term rentals: despite stricter regulations, pressure from the vacation rental and short-stay market remains very high, favoring returns for property owners
- Growing interest from Latin Americans and Mexicans: nearly half of the €2.835 billion invested in Spain by Latin America in 2023 came from Mexico; Mexican buyers stand out for focusing on luxury properties in Madrid
- Golden Visa: though set to be eliminated in April 2025, this program allowed property buyers from €500,000 to obtain residency in Spain, accelerating Latin American investments
- Global infrastructure: Madrid directly connected to Mexico City (Aeroméxico, Iberia, etc.), complemented by AVE high-speed trains and excellent intercontinental connectivity
Cosmopolitan lifestyle with authentic Spanish soul
Madrid is unique in its ability to offer vibrant city life while remaining deeply human. Here, days are long and conversations longer. Among its must-experiences:

- 🏛 The Art Triangle: Prado Museum, Reina Sofía, and Thyssen-Bornemisza. Masterpieces just steps away.
- 🌳 Retiro Park: 118 hectares of history, gardens, and natural peace in the heart of the city.
- 🍷 Gastronomy ranging from tapas to Michelin stars: markets like San Miguel, restaurants like DiverXO or StreetXO, and taverns with centuries of history.
- 🛍️ Luxury shopping and local design in Salamanca, Malasaña, or Chueca.
- 🎭 Theater, opera, and nightlife like few European capitals offer.
Madrid isn’t just a great place to invest. It’s a place you’ll want to live.
