Description

PROPERTY FOR SALE IN GIBRALTAR
Octopus House, Upper Town | Iconic Three Bedroom Townhouse

NP Estates is pleased to present Octopus House, an iconic three bedroom residence positioned on Castle Steps in Gibraltar’s Upper Town, combining distinctive architecture, extensive terraces and uninterrupted views across the Strait towards Spain and Morocco.

Fully refurbished throughout, the property offers approximately 139.6m² of internal accommodation together with 75.1m² of external space, arranged across two levels. Natural light is a defining feature of the home, with extensive glazing and skylights creating a bright interior throughout.

The lower level forms the main residential accommodation and includes a generous reception room, separate study and three double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from an en suite bathroom, while a second bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. All three bedrooms open directly onto the west facing terrace, creating a strong connection to the outside and allowing the elevated views and afternoon light to carry through the private areas of the home.

The reception room provides a comfortable and more intimate living space away from the kitchen and dining areas above, while the adjoining study offers flexibility for home working, reading or additional occasional use.

The upper floor is the real focal point of the property. A contemporary open plan kitchen and dining area opens directly onto an expansive wraparound terrace, creating an exceptional indoor and outdoor living space. The kitchen is modern and well fitted with a large central island, clean cabinetry and generous workspace, while floor to ceiling glazing allows the surrounding views to remain central to the room.

The terraces extend around the upper level and provide several distinct areas for dining, seating and relaxing. Pergolas, established planting and the elevated position create privacy while framing open views across Gibraltar, the Bay, Spain and Morocco. This level has a particularly special atmosphere, with abundant light throughout the day and wide open views that make the property feel removed from the town below.

Wood flooring runs throughout the home, complemented by ducted air conditioning and heating, ceiling fans and carefully considered lighting.

Octopus House is instantly recognisable for its distinctive exterior and occupies one of the Upper Town’s most memorable positions. Castle Steps provides the character and privacy associated with this part of Gibraltar, while Main Street, restaurants, cafés and the town centre remain within easy reach.

With its architectural identity, considerable terrace space and panoramic outlook, Octopus House offers something genuinely different within Gibraltar’s residential market, a private retreat above the town with the convenience of central Gibraltar close by.

Originally created and used as a family home, Octopus House has also developed a strong track record as a successful holiday let, with an established reputation for distinctive stays and private retreats. The property has featured in Condé Nast Traveller, helping to raise the standard and profile of short stay accommodation in Gibraltar. For an incoming purchaser, this also presents an established buy to let model that may be continued, subject to the relevant platform, licensing and existing booking arrangements.
