Upper Town, Gibraltar

Nestled within the peaceful and historic enclave of Gibraltar’s Upper Town, along the iconic Union Jack Steps, this exceptional family residence has newly arrived to the market, offering an exquisite blend of timeless colonial elegance and contemporary living. Rich in character and thoughtfully designed throughout, the property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial home in one of Gibraltar’s most charming and sought-after locations.

Beautifully proportioned and filled with natural light, the residence comprises five spacious double bedrooms and three well-appointed bathrooms, two of which are en-suite. High ceilings, grand proportions and elegant architectural detailing create a wonderful sense of volume and sophistication throughout the home, while carefully integrated modern touches provide comfort and practicality for modern family life.

A particular highlight of the property is the impressive private roof terrace of approximately 25m², offering truly breathtaking panoramic views. To one side, uninterrupted vistas stretch across the sea towards the African coastline, while the opposite aspect frames the majestic Rock of Gibraltar itself. Whether hosting guests, dining al fresco or simply unwinding with a glass of wine at sunset, this remarkable outdoor space provides an idyllic setting for both relaxation and entertaining.

The principal suite is a luxurious retreat, complete with an en-suite bathroom, walk-in wardrobe and additional fitted wardrobes, ensuring abundant storage space. Air conditioning further enhances comfort within the room. The elegant front reception room serves as the heart of the home, distinguished by magnificent high ceilings and tall colonial-style windows that flood the space with natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere ideal for both relaxing and family gatherings.

The generously sized kitchen connects seamlessly to a dedicated dining area, offering excellent versatility. Subject to preference, the space could be transformed into a striking open-plan kitchen and dining room or retained as two separate rooms, perfectly suited to family living and entertaining alike.

The lower floor accommodates three substantial double bedrooms, one benefiting from an en-suite bathroom, all of which enjoy direct access to a charming lower patio with a covered seating area, providing additional outdoor living space and further enhancing the home’s appeal.

Practicality is equally well considered, with the invaluable addition of a private parking space offering direct access into the property — a highly coveted feature within the Upper Town. A spacious ground-floor storage room also provides ample capacity for all the requirements of family life.

Adding further appeal, the property was originally configured as two separate houses, presenting exciting potential for future reconfiguration. The ground floor could, subject to the necessary permissions, be converted back into a self-contained one-bedroom apartment, ideal for guests, extended family, rental income or staff accommodation.

 

Combining historic charm, generous accommodation, spectacular views and exceptional flexibility, this distinguished residence represents a truly unique offering within Gibraltar’s property market.
