Introducing the property
This 164-year-old iconic house embodies the cultural soul of Málaga, just steps away from museums, galleries, and the best restaurants. This is a unique opportunity for art and heritage collectors; Picasso was born, lived, and worked within these very walls. The home shares the entrance and staircase used by the master himself, an unparalleled provenance in the very heart of the city.
Exterior
The tall wooden-framed windows feature colorful stained-glass details that project a prismatic play of light over stately rooms and frame expansive views of Plaza de la Merced. The newly installed exterior carpentry, with soundproofing, guarantees a peaceful refuge in an unmatched central location. The property includes five elegant French balconies.
Interior
Impressive 4.2-meter-high ceilings with exposed beams, 3-meter doors, and original 19th-century tiles anchor a high-end renovation that honors the building’s heritage while enhancing everyday comfort. The spa-style bathrooms offer generous dimensions and rain-effect showers; central air conditioning serves the entire residence. The versatile layout allows for an independent studio or three-bedroom apartment, at the moment, it’s functioning as an Airbnb, making this ideal for guests or additional income as a short-term rental.
