The La Moraleja villa area in Madrid attracts World Cup stars thanks to its low-rise design, large gardens, and strict security.
The villa is located in La Moraleja, an upscale residential area in the northern metropolitan area of Madrid, Spain. This area has attracted many World Cup players, including Luka Modric and Mateo Kovacic – the Croatian duo participating in the 2026 World Cup; Raphael Varane – the French defender at the 2022 World Cup, and legendary former Spanish national team captain from 2006 to 2018, Sergio Ramos.
According to Promora – a brokerage firm specializing in buying, selling, and renting villas – La Moraleja is also associated with Real Madrid club players due to its proximity to the Valdebebas training ground, high level of security, and privacy assurance.
La Moraleja is developed under the model of low-rise villas, large land plots, spacious gardens, and separation from the urban core. Living spaces here usually revolve around privacy rather than showing off the facade, featuring fences, greenery, private entrances, gardens, swimming pools, entertainment areas, and on-site parking.
Căn biệt thự nằm trong La Moraleja, khu dân cư cao cấp thuộc vùng đô thị phía bắc Madrid, Tây Ban Nha. Khu vực này từng là nơi thu hút nhiều cầu thủ dự World Cup, trong đó có Luka Modric và Mateo Kovacic – bộ đôi Croatia góp mặt tại World Cup 2026; Raphael Varane – hậu vệ tuyển Pháp tại World Cup 2022 và cựu đội trưởng huyền thoại tuyển Tây Ban Nha 2006-2018 Sergio Ramos.
Theo Promora – công ty môi giới chuyên mua bán và cho thuê biệt thự – La Moraleja còn gắn với nhóm cầu thủ của câu lạc bộ Real Madrid nhờ vị trí gần khu huấn luyện Valdebebas, mức độ an ninh và khả năng bảo đảm riêng tư.
La Moraleja phát triển theo mô hình biệt thự thấp tầng, lô đất rộng, sân vườn lớn và tách biệt với lõi đô thị. Không gian sống tại đây thường xoay quanh sự riêng tư thay vì phô trương mặt tiền, với hàng rào, cây xanh, lối vào riêng, sân vườn, hồ bơi, khu giải trí và bãi đỗ xe trong khuôn viên.
The land was originally part of a Mediterranean forest, retaining many oak trees thanks to landscape conservation. The design concept of the villa originated from the largest oak tree on the plot.

The architect organized the house around a courtyard at the lowest point of the land. This layout creates a space connected to the oak tree while helping the structure adapt to the terrain.

The villa’s facade uses white plaster combined with rough stone, a common material in the Mediterranean region. The volume of the house is divided, combining different heights to reduce the feeling of imposition on the land.

The building consists of two intersecting blocks in an L-shape. One block is dedicated to the owner’s private space on the upper floor, while the lower floor opens to the courtyard next to the oak tree. The other block accommodates common functional areas, auxiliary rooms, and children’s bedrooms.

The homeowner desired the entrance to evoke the feeling of a “sea of glass,” inspired by childhood summer memories. From this requirement, the architect designed a lobby block nearly 10 meters high at the highest point. The glass lobby block is located between the two wings of the house, serving as the pivot point of the L-shaped layout.

The two blocks are not placed on the same level but are offset by half a story. This approach helps the house follow the gentle slope of the land while creating short transitions between functional spaces. The glass lobby block at the intersection connects the different levels using stairs and balconies.
