Somosaguas is the quintessential luxury residential area in the northwest of Madrid. Belonging to the municipality of Pozuelo de Alarcón, just 10 km from the centre of Madrid, it occupied an old estate belonging to the Marqués de Urquijo. This area is characterised by its well-consolidated architectural constructions, as well as its gardens, endowed with a character that can only be obtained with exquisite care over the years.

With excellent communications (including the light metro), it is one of the most emblematic places to live and enjoy an incomparable environment. Surrounded by the Casa de Campo, the true green lung of the capital, the prestigious campus of the Complutense University of Madrid, the leading Quirón hospital, the exclusive Somosaguas golf course, and renowned schools such as the American School. This exclusive area is also characterised by its high level of security measures, guaranteeing the privacy of all residents. Somosaguas is, without comparison, one of the most privileged areas of Madrid.
