you are absolutely correct but today there is the tendency that a penthouse is a residence, often with a terrace, on the top floor or floors of a building. ...
Note from asker:
I thought that the penthouse was the top apartment, but this refers the one just below the top floor. Am I wrong?

sottoattico/sottotetto

I think its a poshy way of saying sottotetto.
Sottotetto con abitabilità quindi trasformato in marnsarda - attic
Note from asker:
I think it IS a posh apartment since the view from the terrace is Monte Carlo and the sea of the Cote d'Azur + the building has a private swimmimg pool... :)
