About this property

A 2 Bedroom luxury penthouse in the historic centre of Alora

This is a luxurious penthouse apartment with direct lift access into the living room. It has been furnished in a contemporary style with high quality fitments and furnishings. There are two terraces one of which is exceptionally large with panoramic views of the countryside and Alora´s Moorish Castle which is perched on top of a hill and looks particularly spectacular and romantic at night when illuminated. Alora is a traditional Andalucian whitewashed village sitting on top of the hills of El Hacho which is 400 metres above sea level. As well as being able to soak in the atmosphere of a traditional Spanish working village, with its narrow, winding, cobbled streets and local shops, you will find a wide variety of restaurants and tapas bars. Alora is very popular with golfers, walkers, climbers and watersports enthusiasts as it is only 12 km from the beautiful lakes of El Chorro. It has excellent communication links with Malaga, Antequerra, Ronda, the airport and the Costa del Sol.

About the host

Hosted by Helen Matthews

Host profile image
We are a couple from London and decided to escape the rat race and started a idyllic life here in Alora. My husband is an ex-chef in restaurants in London and hotels back in the Far East while my line of work is public relations.

Why they chose this property

We saw this property when our builder was still constructing it. All the 5 units were sold to local Spanish residents except the Penthouse. He showed the penthouse to us and we could not believe the views when we reached the top and lead us to the two terraces. We bought it on the spot because of the views and the location which is in the historic part of town, very close to the shops, banks and restaurants. It was one of the best decision we had made.

What makes this property unique

The top floor of the penthouse is not shared with any other flat. The lift goes straight to the living room and with the help of a key opens right into the apartment, very impressive indeed. The plot of the building is at an elevated position and so it has a commanding view of the countryside, mountains and the Moorish Castle. We will forever have these views.
