Appartement de 2 chambres à vendre à Palermo
Palermo, Palerme, Sicile, Italie
Description complète
In one of our favourite palazzo buildings on Palermo's beautiful via Roma, Appartamento Michela is a luxury fourth-floor apartment that is as spacious as it is filled with history.
The four-bedroom property offers 250m2 of internal space, plus a quartet of balconies overlooking the main thoroughfare outside, the quieter Via Milano and the internal courtyard of this century-old liberty-style apartment block.
Bright, airy and expansive
Six large and well-lit rooms run along the outer facade of the L-shaped apartment, each with large windows and three with balconies. Every one has its own decorative character, with unique configurations of classic Sicilian floor tiles and decorative plastering and frescoes on the high 4.1m ceilings. This is a stately property with history and class in abundance.
The previous owner lived here for many decades, and in fact ran a private family medical practice from the large reception rooms around the entrance hall. An astonishing number of local residents will be immediately familiar with your new home if you drop the much-loved name of Dr Palazzo Adriano!
Renovation and restoration required
There is certainly work to be done to renovate the apartment before it can be a comfortable home, starting with the electrical wiring and including replacing the windows, bathrooms and kitchen. There is currently no heating or air conditioning, and a modern buyer may find the division of space a little inflexible and prefer to open up some pairs of rooms into larger, more fluid spaces.
However, the beautiful city and mountain views, the characterful decorative flourishes underfoot and overhead, and the abundance of natural light and fresh air that stream in through the large windows and French doors mean that the finished product will be a really first class city centre apartment with charm, history and a perfect location.
In the very heart of Sicily's most fascinating city
All of the main attractions and amenities of the city can be reached on foot or by bicycle, and the position directly opposite the main Centrale station means that the district is extremely well-served by buses, coaches, trains and even, in the near future, a tram line.
