Nowadays, the room or apartment at the top of a building. So a penthouse apartment is the topmost flat in the block, with the best view and no-one walking around above, and hence usually the most expensive. The origin is from the word "pent" meaning sloping, and it was a room under the sloping roof - which we might nowadays call a loft, or even a lean-to. It was not, in origin, a particularly good place, with the sloping-in walls.
