Architectural Masterpiece In Alto De Las Palmas: Medellín’s Beverly Hills

Set in the heart of Alto de las Palmas, often referred to as Medellín’s Beverly Hills, this exceptional residence offers a rare opportunity to live in one of Colombia’s most exclusive gated communities.

Located just behind the Indiana Mall and surrounded by lush greenery, this enclave is home to celebrities, foreign executives, and discerning families seeking privacy, security, and refined living just minutes from the city.

Designed by acclaimed architect Pepe Franco and constructed in 2018 by the renowned firm Arquitectura Integral, the home spans 526 square meters (5,660 square feet) across two levels and sits on an expansive 2,864 m² (30,828 sq. ft) lot.

The architectural integrity of the house is matched by its sophisticated interiors, which offer a seamless blend of contemporary design, natural elements, and practical elegance.

The main floor is centered around a grand living space with soaring double-height ceilings and a modern gas fireplace that sets the tone for both cozy evenings and elegant entertaining.

An open-plan kitchen flows into the main areas and includes a walk-in pantry and a separate laundry zone. A sense of harmony with nature is reinforced by indoor gardens that invite tranquility into daily life.

The master suite is a true retreat, offering a luxurious bathroom and a generous walk-in closet. A second en-suite bedroom provides guests or family members with equal privacy. Also on the main floor is a large study, ideal for remote work or creative pursuits, along with two covered terraces perfect for al fresco dining or relaxing in Medellín’s famously temperate climate.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with three additional bedrooms, each spacious and filled with natural light. A private library offers a quiet corner for reflection or study, while a second office space accommodates growing families or multiple work-from-home professionals.

Practicality is seamlessly integrated with a staff bedroom, two utility rooms, a linen closet, and a three-car garage that offers ample storage and secure parking.

Beyond the home itself, residents enjoy access to a truly exceptional suite of resort-style amenities. An indoor semi-Olympic heated pool features three swimming lanes for year-round training and recreation. Two professional squash courts cater to the fitness-minded, alongside a fully equipped gym.

For entertaining, a spacious event hall is available for private functions, while a full-size football pitch with synthetic turf and a children’s recreational zone - complete with trampolines, swings, and a ball pool - ensure fun for all ages.
