Shopping at a flea market and touring a luxury mansion are no longer incompatible plans: now you can combine the two at the same time thanks to Home Market, a project that gives a second life to furniture, clothing and decorative items from upscale Madrid homes.
The creator of this initiative is La Moraleja Home. The company organizes flea markets in houses that are to be sold or completely redecorated. It is in charge of cataloguing all the objects that the owner wants to get rid of and display them aesthetically in the house. The goal is to empty the house while giving a new opportunity to its furniture.
At Home Market you can buy everything you can imagine finding in a mansion, including antiques for collectors. Prices range from 50 cents to 5,000 euros, depending on the item. Of course, there are plenty of offers for all budgets: there are kitchen utensils for less than €2; plasma TVs from €70; fashion from major brands at €15 ; closets, lamps and even washing machines for €10… Anyone who is thinking of remodeling their home with vintage objects has a great opportunity to get real bargains here to do so.
La Moraleja Home usually prepares its original flea market once a month. Before visiting it, it is advisable to sign up to the list of attendees provided by the company through Instagram. Although they usually organize open days in which registration is not necessary, sometimes an appointment is mandatory.
To be the first to know when the next Home Market will be held, the organizers suggest their followers join their WhatsApp channel, where the best buying opportunities are posted.
