Penthouses

A Penthouse may be defined as an apartment on the highest floor of a block of apartments. They differ from your usual apartment as, more often than not, they are luxuriously finished and furnished. The word “penthouse” was originally used to refer to a separate smaller “house” that was built on the roof of a block of apartments.

Penthouses have been around since the beginning of the 20th century, starting out in the ever-busy city of New York. The demand for property was so high that luxury top-floor apartments were developed to cater to the growing demand.

Architecturally speaking, a penthouse should be set back from the outer walls. This “lost space” is replaced with a terrace where one can easily enjoy the Maltese sun and beautiful views that generally come with a 6th or 8th-floor penthouse – a highly desired feature for any home.

In any block of apartments, the penthouse is generally the most expensive owing to their panoramic views and luxurious living space. Due to the high demand for large penthouses, several developers have taken to developing Duplex Penthouses within high-demand projects.
