Apartment for sale in Calahonda, Mijas, Málaga

Beautiful penthouse with private terrace, massive rooftop solarium & panoramic sea views, Upper Calahonda.

€395,000 | 2 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | Private terrace | 56 m² rooftop solarium

Some properties are all about the interior. With this penthouse, it is the combination of a spacious home and exceptional private outdoor space that really sets it apart.

Located within the peaceful, gated Mediterráneo urbanisation in Upper Calahonda, this bright two-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse offers a private main-level terrace plus a massive rooftop solarium, with beautiful views across the surrounding greenery, Mediterranean Sea and mountains.

The apartment has a spacious living and dining area with plenty of natural light. From here, you step directly onto the private terrace, one of the most enjoyable parts of the property.

Glass curtains allow the terrace to be enclosed during the cooler months, effectively extending the living space and making it somewhere that can be enjoyed throughout the year. Open them up in warmer weather and you have a lovely outdoor setting with green views and the Mediterranean visible beyond.

Inside, there are two good-sized bedrooms, a fitted kitchen and two modern refurbished bathrooms.

Then there is the rooftop.

A striking internal staircase with high ceilings and colourful stained-glass windows leads from the apartment to the property's private rooftop solarium. At over 56 m² registered, this is far more than a small roof terrace. It is a genuine second outdoor living area with enough space to create separate zones for dining, entertaining, sunbathing and relaxing.

The current owners have made excellent use of the space, with pizza ovens, an outdoor dining area and sun loungers already in place. There is also plenty of room to further personalise the solarium, including potential space for a Jacuzzi, subject to the relevant technical and community permissions.

The elevated position is what makes the rooftop particularly special. From here you have wide panoramic views across the Mediterranean Sea and surrounding mountains, giving the property a very different feel from a standard two-bedroom apartment.

Between the registered 22.20 m² private terrace and 56.05 m² rooftop solarium, there is approximately 78 m² of registered private outdoor space. The apartment itself has a registered constructed area of 107.88 m², with the official documentation recording 78.09 m² of usable internal space, plus the internal staircase, terrace and solarium.

Mediterráneo, Upper Calahonda

The property sits within an established and secure gated community with attractive, well-maintained communal gardens.

Residents have access to a peaceful communal swimming pool, with toilet facilities at the pool area. Communal parking is available within the development, with plenty of spaces available.

The apartment is positioned one level up and is accessed by a small number of steps. It should also be noted that the communal pool is reached via steps, so the property may not be the best choice for buyers with significant mobility difficulties.

Properties of this type within Mediterráneo do not often come to market, particularly with this combination of private terrace, substantial rooftop solarium and panoramic views.

For someone looking for a Costa del Sol home where outdoor living matters just as much as the space inside, this penthouse deserves to be seen.
