This turn-of-the-century home is perfect for a family traveling together, as well as couples wishing to explore majestic Buenos Aires and stay under the same roof. Completely renovated and redecorated, it is centrally located in the Palermo Viejo area, a historic, and now very hip quarter of Buenos Aires dominated by tree-lined streets, charming architecture, quaint cafes, stylish restaurants, art galleries, designer boutiques and quirky specialty shops.
This home away from home serves as a superior alternative to a hotel or apartment rental, for either vacation or business travelers. It is safe, convenient and quiet. Spacious and comfortable, this unit hosts high ceilings, fully-stocked kitchen, quality linens and furniture, and best of all an entire house to yourself. Four of the five rooms serve as bedrooms, one of which (on the top floor) opens to a private courtyard where you can enjoy your breakfast al fresco.
The bedrooms directly access a sun-drenched roof-top terrace. Reinforced glass ceilings give this home a luminous quality, offering direct sunlight and a warm, homey atmosphere. An outdoor grill allows for you to experiment in a traditional Argentine asado, if you are inclined to cooking. The decor is a delicate blend of modern, antique and rustic; however great care has been taken to preserve the original charm and architectural ambiance by retaining the antique wood floors and doors, as well as the tall windows, which flood the rooms with incredible light.
As a counterpoint, the furniture is both modern and antique, with careful selections which the owners took consideration in picking out. The layout of the house respects the traditional arrangement in which all the rooms open to either the courtyard (patio) or roof-top terrace. The atmosphere is private, elegant and serene.
It is very spacious with over 1237 sq. feet (115 sq. meters).
A perfect alternative for those that do not want to be cramped in a smaller hotel room or apartment, this apartment gets plenty of sunlight throughout the day due to its location and glass panels on the ceiling. No expense was spared renovating and furnishing this apartment. The entire apartment has been completely renovated.
It has a custom designed desk, high-speed Internet access and also Wi-Fi wireless internet is available throughout the apartment.
This apartment is perfect for a longer term stay in Buenos Aires or pampering yourself for just a few short nights. Our company - myArgentinahome - manages several apartments in the area in case you are coming with family or friends and you all want to stay in the same area.

Why the Owner Chose Buenos Aires
Quiet - close to everything - perfect weather (not too cold in the winter, we like to get away from NY's cold winters) and lovely in the fall / spring.
