Rationalist Elegance in the Heart of Retiro: 1932 Icon Completely Renovated In the heart of Retiro, standing on the emblematic Avenida Santa Fe, rises a 1932 building designed by architect and engineer Antonio Ubaldo Vilar, a leading figure in Porteño rationalism. Nearly a century later, it retains its original architectural character—wrought iron balconies and a façade that harmonizes with the Francophile buildings lining the avenue—and has been completely renovated, achieving an exquisite blend of heritage and contemporary comfort. On the fifth floor, this 3,175 sq ft apartment unfolds in a fluid, open-plan layout with pale wood floors and natural light in every corner. High ceilings, spacious hallways, generous rooms. The living-dining area, of generous proportions, opens onto a floor-to-ceiling glazed gallery overlooking the avenue—a versatile space, ideal as an informal living area, home office, or sun room. The fully renovated kitchen combines stainless steel sink, black granite countertop, and complete appliances (refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, and range), and connects to a breakfast bar with seating—the heart of informal entertaining. A distinctive architectural detail of the era remains intact: the original glass block (pavés) panels present in both the kitchen and bathrooms, which provide filtered light and an authentic nod to 1930s rationalism. The apartment features three bedrooms, including a spacious master suite with walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom, plus three bathrooms in total, finished in stone and microcement with spa-quality finishes. Central heating via new radiators and air conditioning throughout all rooms ensure comfort year-round. The entry hall, with crystal chandeliers and custom shelving, sets the tone for the meticulous attention to detail throughout. The building itself offers 24-hour security, ground-floor parking, and an expansive basement storage room. A rare opportunity to inhabit a piece of Porteño rationalist architecture, completely renovated, on one of the most coveted corners in Buenos Aires.
