Living in a penthouse is synonymous with style, exclusivity and a unique living experience that many dream of achieving. These spaces, located at the top of buildings, offer advantages that combine luxury with functionality.

What is a penthouse?

A penthouse is a flat located on the top floor of a building. What sets penthouses apart from other flats is not only their privileged location, but also their layout, design and, in many cases, their access to private terraces offering unparalleled panoramic views.

Penthouses vary in size and layout. From one-bedroom lofts to large residences with multiple entertaining areas, penthouse design is often more flexible and allows for greater creativity in decorating and arranging spaces. They usually include luxury features that elevate the living experience.

Panoramic views

One of the main attractions of a penthouse is the ability to enjoy spectacular views. Being at the top of the building, residents can enjoy uninterrupted views of cityscapes or natural landscapes. These views not only offer a feeling of spaciousness, but also fill the spaces with natural light throughout the day, contributing to a warmer and more welcoming atmosphere.

Private terraces

Many penthouses come with a private terrace, an outdoor space where owners can relax, enjoy al fresco dining or create a small urban garden. This outdoor area becomes an extension of the home, ideal for social gatherings, relaxing or watching the sunset. Having exclusive access to a terrace is a luxury that few other flats offer.

Privacy and tranquillity

Being located at the top of the building, penthouses guarantee a higher level of privacy than other flats. No overlooking neighbours means less noise and greater peace and quiet. This quality is especially attractive for those seeking a quiet retreat in the middle of a bustling city. In addition, many buildings reserve access to penthouses via private or controlled lifts, which further enhances the feeling of exclusivity.

Ample space

Penthouses often have higher ceilings than other flats, which creates a more spacious feel. Added to this, the architecture of these spaces tends to make the most of natural light, with large windows and open areas that allow the sun to illuminate every corner of the home.

In addition, being on the top floor often allows for more creative designs and freer layouts, with fewer architectural restrictions. Owners can more easily modify walls or internal layout without affecting other neighbours.

Revaluation

Due to their rarity and attractiveness, penthouses often maintain or even increase in value over time. The exclusivity offered by these spaces makes them a solid investment in the real estate market. In addition, demand for penthouses is always high, so if you ever decide to sell, you are likely to find interested buyers quickly.
