Situated in Malaga's old town, this home's street takes its name from the freshwater wells that provided water to the many convents in the area. Anyway, the location is highlight number one. The second is this apartment's roof terrace (reached via a spiral staircase) with views over the city's rooftops and churches – the perfect spot for cocktails. Inside, we love the open-plan living space with its double-height ceiling, and the Juliet balconies make the area light and bright. You're bound to hear some city noise here, but with such a great address as this, we think it's a small price to pay.

Home truths:
