Top-floor outdoor space and three aspects in Cancelada

Forty square metres of terrace wrap around this 3 bedroom penthouse with garden in Cancelada, giving the apartment outdoor space that faces east, south and west. Because the property sits at the top of the building on the second floor, the terrace catches the sun from the first hours of the morning until it drops at the end of the day.

The terrace and what the community includes

The 40 m2 terrace is large enough to divide into separate zones for dining and sitting out without one crowding the other. Having three orientations means you can follow the sun or move away from it as the day warms up. Downstairs, the building provides access to a garden, giving residents planted ground-level space alongside their own top-floor terrace. The building has no lift, so reaching the apartment always means walking up two flights of stairs with shopping or luggage, a point that also keeps the mechanical upkeep of the block simpler.

How the refurbishment changed the layout

On the title deeds, the property is registered as a two-bedroom apartment. During a past refurbishment, part of the original terrace was enclosed to create the third bedroom. This leaves a 90 m2 built area inside alongside the remaining 40 m2 of open terrace. The bedrooms include fitted wardrobes, and the bathroom layout consists of one full bathroom and a separate WC rather than two full bath or shower rooms. Every main aspect bar the north is open to the exterior, bringing daylight into the rooms throughout the day.

What to check when you view

Anyone considering this 3 bedroom penthouse with garden in Cancelada should have their lawyer verify the paperwork for the enclosed terrace space and how that third bedroom sits in relation to the registered two-bedroom deed. When viewing in person, test the walk up the stairs to the second floor and check how the one full bathroom and separate WC work for the number of people who will stay here at once.
