Maguire Residence, Victorian mansion in Recoleta, Argentina
The Maguire Residence displays numerous architectural elements combining Victorian, Gothic, and Renaissance styles on its detailed stone facade and interior spaces.
Built in 1890 by architect Carlos Ryder, this mansion represents the period when wealthy families constructed large residences along Avenida Alvear.
The residence stands as a testament to the European architectural influences that shaped Buenos Aires during its rapid growth in the late 19th century.
Visitors can observe the exterior architecture while exploring the neighborhood, though interior access remains restricted to specific occasions.
The mansion features original garden designs by Carlos Thays, who created many of the most notable parks in Buenos Aires.
