Penthouses for sale in Málaga

Buying a penthouse in Málaga

In Málaga, a penthouse is the way to have open sky in the middle of the city: your own terrace, light and, from many rooftops, views of the cathedral, the Alcazaba, the port or the sea. The offer is small and varied: penthouses in Centro Histórico buildings, some with a rooftop tower; seafront penthouses on the La Malagueta promenade; homes overlooking the bay in Monte Sancha and El Limonar; and upper floors in the recent towers of Teatinos and Martiricos.

The typical penthouse has around 132 m² of built area plus the terrace, usually with two or three bedrooms; there are also duplexes with an internal staircase and a solarium. 14 of the 31 look out over the sea. They suit buyers who want city living without giving up outdoor space. Check the actual size of the terrace and its waterproofing, make sure the lift reaches the top floor, and look at the orientation, which determines how hot it gets in summer.

Each area offers a different kind of penthouse. In the old town the appeal is character, rooftop views and street life, although parking is rare; in La Malagueta and Monte Sancha it is the sea, with the beach close by; and in Teatinos and Martiricos, recent buildings with parking and communal areas. From any of them, the airport is fifteen to twenty minutes away by car.
