One of the most beautiful city apartments we've seen in a long time, Casa Lili is a two-bedroom gem in one of Palermo's best possible locations.
Housed within the extravagant, 100 year-old Palazzo Caputo Pirrotta on Via Roma, directly opposite the city's grand Centrale railway terminus, Casa Lily boasts decorative stonework on three balconies and its external facade, and some beautiful frescoes on the ceilings of almost every room. It's a wonderful marriage of timeless and modern
An Oasis of Calm and Comfort
For nearly half a century, this building used to be one of Palermo's best-loved department stores, and the sense of brightness and scale that comes from the full-length windows and four metre-high ceilings really let you imagine the interior spaces in that kind of dynamic, bustling context.
Nowadays, however, it has become a haven of perfect calm and comfort, with the noise of the city outside being kept at bay by the double glazed windows and sturdy walls. The temperature is controlled to perfection by an unobtrusive hydronic climate control system that circulates hot and cool air without the need for visible air conditioning units.
Elite Design and Craftsmanship
The entire redesign has been realised to the highest possible standard, with a simple wood and clean plaster aesthetic that recurs in the parquet floors, the dividers in the open plan living area and the trim around the windows and shutters. The two bathrooms are perfectly tiled and the kitchen has been fitted with a custom-made suite of cupboards, appliances and workspaces.
Much of the nicest furnishing is actually included in the sale price, including a gorgeous suite of sofa and 1950s dining table in the living room, and all of the contents of the kitchen and bathrooms.
A Slice of Local Heritage
Casa Lili is a chance not just to become a resident of Sicily's most exciting city, but to buy into its very history. Find out more about the building's unique story and the up-and-coming neighbourhood of La Kalsa by reading the feature length description on our website.
