Built with sturdy stone, classic brick, and a skeleton of iron and wood, Casa Montero isn’t shy about showing off. Notice those swirling lines and wavy balconies, especially on the second and third floors-they break all the usual rules about boring straight buildings. The entrance, on Alameda de Recalde, is like a crown jewel: decorated, detailed, and flanked by fancy carvings that probably made the neighbors jealous.
Imagine residents here over a century ago, gliding across the tiles, peeking out bay windows, enjoying a home that was the talk of the town. So if you hear whispers of Bilbao’s glorious past or the giggle of an architect breaking the rules, that’s Casa Montero working its charms. Thanks for joining me on this whirlwind walk through Abando-remember, every corner in Bilbao has a story worth discovering!
