Penthouse apartments are  an essential part of any residential building. Their top-floor location gives them a number of unique advantages. Although there are many different ways of using them, it’s important always to take the particular design and layout into account.

Here are some ideas on how to make the best use of a penthouse

  • Chillout area

A penthouse can be an ideal chillout area to relax and take in the panoramic views. Wherever you decide to create your chillout corner, you can arrange sofas, chairs and tables, as well as rugs and cushions, to make a comfortable, cosy space.

Testa Tip: if the penthouse has high ceilings, you can use curtains to divide up the space and provide privacy.

  • Study or work space

Penthouses are also ideal for creating work spaces or studios. You can have a large table and a comfortable chair, as well as shelves and cupboards for books and equipment.

If you need a quiet, isolated place to work or study, a penthouse like the one in our Alcalá homes may be just what you’re looking for.

  • Games room

For families with children, a penthouse can be turned into a fun and welcoming games room. All you need is a gaming table, a TV with a gaming console, and a good stock of board games, paints and toys to keep the children entertained.

  • Master bedroom

With a large, comfortable bed, your penthouse can become the perfect master bedroom. Add shelves and cupboards for storing clothes and personal items. Also, if the penthouse has skylights, you can enjoy the stars at night.

  • Private gym

With a mat and a set of weights, you can turn part of your penthouse into your own personal gym and workout area. No need for bulky gym machines, just a place where you can move freely and do exercises or practise pilates or yoga.

  • Storage space

If you need extra space in your home, you can use the penthouse, or part of it, for storage. There are many different kinds of storage and shelving systems you can use for storing clothes, books, or anything else you don’t need to use on a daily basis.

If your penthouse has a terrace, like the ones we have in Médico Francisco, you can play with various outdoor storage options.

With the right layout and decoration, you’ll soon create a lively, welcoming atmosphere, with areas of sun and areas of shade, along with magnificent panoramic views.

Penthouses are highly versatile, so to make the most of them you need to explore their potential and create different environments according to your needs. Find penthouses and other kinds of homes on our website. We have the perfect solution for your needs.
