@Danila d'accordo è une appartamento di lusso e non una casa
Danila Moro Jan 28, 2012:
io credo che penthouse si riferisca sempre a un appartamento (all'ultimo piano, magari anche su più piani). Per cui il problema non dovrebbe porsi.
belitrix Jan 28, 2012:
ich würde das nur als appartamento di lusso bezeichnen con una terrrazza di 50 m².

@Capirsi ricordo benissimo che ho fatto la domanda poco tempo fa, la' pero' si parlava di un appartamento, qui no...

in inglese infatti si intende:
"a. An apartment or dwelling situated on the roof of a building.
b. A residence, often with a terrace, on the top floor or floors of a building."
quindi situato nel sottotetto e comunque in alto.
