In the Cortijo de La Santa Cruz residential development, just a few minutes' drive from the centre of Almuñécar and its beaches, lies this exceptional and unique property, situated next to the protected area that is home to part of the historic Roman Aqueduct, one of the town's most significant archaeological and monumental landmarks.
Situated in a residential complex with a communal swimming pool, within one of its most detached blocks, this property boasts features rarely found in a flat, giving it a truly unique character.
It is a penthouse that includes a spacious 17 m² parking space and a practical 5 m² storage room. As it is on the top floor, it boasts two magnificent terraces that considerably enhance the potential for outdoor living. One of them has direct access from the living room, whilst the second also connects to the living area and two of the bedrooms.
From this second terrace, you can enjoy pleasant, unobstructed views over the avocado groves and, in particular, magnificent and rare direct views of the Roman Aqueduct – a monumental and archaeological setting that lends the property a character that is hard to match.
But, without a doubt, one of the features that makes this property truly special is its direct access to a private plot of approximately 50 m². This is an extraordinarily rare feature in a flat or penthouse and represents a significant added value.
This outdoor space offers endless possibilities: creating a well-tended Mediterranean garden, designing a private vegetable patch, setting up an outdoor relaxation and dining area, or developing a leisure space with a barbecue. A true privilege that allows you to enjoy the advantages and comfort of living in a flat, whilst also having your own outdoor space more typical of a detached house.
The combination of a penthouse, two terraces, a private garden or plot, a communal swimming pool, a parking space, a storage room and views of a historic monument makes this property a rare find in Almuñécar and on the Costa Tropical.
Furthermore, its location allows you to enjoy both the tranquillity of the surroundings and excellent transport links. The N-340 and A-7 are just a few minutes' drive away, providing easy access to Granada, approximately 45 minutes away, and Málaga, around 50 minutes away, as well as opening the door to countless day trips, villages, beaches and experiences throughout the Costa Tropical and Andalusia.
A unique property, with exceptional character and potential, designed for those seeking much more than just a flat: a home with spacious outdoor areas, privacy, history and the opportunity to create your own garden in a stunning setting.
