Relive the history of Buenos Aires only 5 blocks from today’s Recoleta village. In 1894, when the country of Argentina was one of the wealthiest in the world with strong European ties, a Frenchman built this elegant residence on Calle Juncal. You can still feel the old world ambiance in the building’s beautiful church-like façade, tall ceilings, and architectural features, but you can also enjoy modern conveniences like a renovated 'American style' kitchen. This large three bedroom apartment (over 200 square meters or 2,200 square feet) has a large master suite with king size bed, walk-in closet and separate bath, shower and toilet areas. There is a second smaller loft bedroom with its own bathroom with shower. Importantly, in a noisy bustling city like Buenos Aires, all the bedrooms are at the rear of the apartment facing into a common area terrace, and not the street. An office/study with desk, broadband internet access and wi-fi connection is tucked into a loft with skylight off the master bedroom. This unit also boasts a very small bedroom and bath in what was formerly the maid’s quarters which could accommodate a 5th person for a brief stay. Recently renovated by the same architect who did the Art Hotel, the apartment features 15 foot ceilings in the living and dining areas and master bedroom. The apartment has its own private, elegant entrance with marble stairs up to the second floor (considered the 1st floor in Argentina - but there is NO elevator). World class restaurants, cafes, and gourmet grocery and wine shops are all in the neighborhood and within easy walking distance. Two blocks away you can enjoy the café lined Plaza Mitre for an early morning coffee before setting out into one of the most walkable cities in the world; three blocks in the other direction, you’ll find a Metro stop on Avenida Santa Fe. And with the apartment's central location in the city, everything Buenos Aires has to offer is a short taxi ride away.

Belle-Époque blocks, embassies and shaded avenues. The address foreigners picture first.
Recoleta is the Buenos Aires foreigners picture before they ever land: Belle-Époque facades, French mansard roofs, embassies, and tree-lined avenues you slow down on. It is old money and quiet money, and it holds value like almost no other barrio.
