Situated in Málaga's Centro Histórico, this penthouse enjoys a central position within walking distance of essential amenities and cultural attractions.

This penthouse is designed for those who aspire to an urban lifestyle with all the comforts. The layout with one bedroom and the potential to create a second bedroom on the covered terrace offers flexibility. Two private terraces, including a generous rooftop terrace, provide outdoor space amidst the city, ideal for relaxation and entertainment.
The penthouse is part of a small-scale building completed in 2021, guaranteeing modern construction techniques and contemporary finishes. As a new construction project, the property benefits from the latest building regulations and energy efficiency standards, contributing to a comfortable and sustainable stay.
Given its location in the historic center and its penthouse nature, this project does not offer direct access to private gardens or extensive green spaces typically found in more rural developments. The focus is on an urban living experience, with outdoor space primarily provided through two terraces.

This penthouse is a suitable choice for individuals or couples who prefer a dynamic urban lifestyle with direct access to culture, gastronomy, and shopping. It is ideal for those seeking a pied-à-terre in a bustling city or for buyers who value a centrally located home that is both comfortable for daily living and an attractive base for exploring the region. The proximity of facilities like a hospital (243 m) and pharmacy (110 m) adds practical convenience. Considering its location in a historic center and limited outdoor space beyond the terraces, it is less suited for families seeking large gardens or a quiet, residential environment far from urban bustle.
The penthouse features modern, high-quality finishes, in line with 2021 construction standards. This includes durable materials and attention to detail throughout the design. The presence of air conditioning ensures year-round comfort, while double glazing contributes to noise insulation and energy efficiency. Built-in wardrobes provide practical storage solutions. The entrance with an intercom system and an optional alarm system enhance security. The clean lines, bright spaces, and functional layout, including a separate utility room, reflect a contemporary standard of living.
The penthouse in Málaga's Centro Histórico is available starting from €890,000.

The development comprises only one unit of this type, emphasizing its scarcity and potential long-term value.

Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens in Estepona (from €418,800) and Aby Upper in Estepona (from €320,000), which are located in coastal towns with a more residential and resort-focused orientation, this penthouse positions itself distinctly. The price point of €890,000 is significantly higher than the starting prices of the Estepona projects, reflecting the exclusivity of its location in Málaga's historic center. Alba Benalmadena (from €699,000) offers a middle ground but is also situated in a more tourist-oriented coastal town. This penthouse in Málaga stands out for its direct integration into a historic urban environment, with all cultural and commercial amenities immediately accessible. While the Estepona and Benalmadena projects often focus on direct beach access and relaxation in a resort-like setting, this penthouse offers a more dynamic, urban lifestyle with the advantages of the Costa del Sol, such as sun and a pleasant climate, but from the perspective of a cultural and historical hub.
