Occupying the top floor of a beautiful building close to Málaga's superyacht-lined marina, this stunning penthouse apartment offers an enticing blend of original period features and contemporary style that's sure to please. It's recently been renovated with no detail overlooked to create a stunning home designed with your needs in mind. A bright and breezy living room is flooded with natural light throughout the day – perfect for the many houseplants that line its shelves – before slowly evolving into a cosy space as the sun sinks towards the horizon. Elsewhere, an inviting rooftop terrace offers spectacular views over the city and is an ideal spot for sunning yourself or unravelling the sunshade for long lunches sheltered from the intense glare of the southern Spanish sun. Finally, two delightfully decorated bedrooms offer you a choice between coastal chic and oriental inspiration to wake up to each morning. Your Plaza de la Marina address places you close to the action, with the eye-catching white stonework of the Iglesia del Sagrado Corazón and the fascinating Picasso Museum within a ten-minute walk, while the far-reaching views offered by the Mirador de Gibralfaro are just a couple of kilometres away. Once you've done your share... of exploring the city's historic centre, why not lay out on a lounger on one of the Costa del Sol's alluring beaches, or drive a short distance inland to the Montes de Málaga for a day of hiking and biking through the lush mountain scenery.
