Description
On the centrally located Via Sonnino, we offer for sale an exclusive residence of over 340 sq m, an expression of rare beauty and extraordinary architectural value. The apartment is nestled within the renowned Palazzo Gaudina, a true Art Nouveau gem built in 1929 based on a design by architect Giarrizzo, who also designed the façade of Cagliari Cathedral. The building, a symbol of elegance and formal harmony, stands out for the refinement of its facades and common areas. The entire Via Sonnino frontage is currently undergoing a meticulous restoration aimed at restoring the complex to its original splendor; all work has already been fully funded by the current owners. The large shared courtyard has already been renovated, and includes two parking spaces, included in the sale, with recently installed provision for electric charging. Vehicle access is from Via Sonnino through a majestic wrought iron gate, a true work of art from the period, which has also undergone meticulous restoration. The monumental stairwell, also protected by heritage, has been meticulously restored; approval has already been granted for the installation of a modern elevator. The apartment, located on the first piano nobile, occupies the entire floor and offers a balanced and orderly layout, distinguishing itself for the charm and elegance of its interior spaces. From the communal hallway, the apartment is accessed through two independent entrances. The main entrance leads to a spacious central hallway, the true heart of the residence, leading to a sumptuous triple hall of over 80 square meters: a unique space, embellished by a dramatic stage featuring four columns adorned with Corinthian capitals, framing a luminous window. Large French windows lend light and airiness to the space, leading to two balconies overlooking the lively Via Sonnino. The main entrance onto Via Sonnino is completed by a triple-aspect master bedroom and a spacious eat-in kitchen of over 30 square meters, which leads to a private terrace of approximately 20 square meters, a private and quiet space ideal for relaxing al fresco. On the internal side, overlooking the shared courtyard, there are five additional rooms currently used as bedrooms (one with an en-suite bathroom), a study, and a laundry and ironing room, easily adaptable to the future owner's needs. Three bathrooms are also available, arranged with functionality and privacy in mind. The availability of two parking spaces within the shared courtyard is a rare added value in this part of the city. This home embodies the perfect blend of the charm of historic architecture and the refinement of period interiors, offering a unique opportunity to live in one of the most exclusive residences in the city center. A timeless solution, ideal for those seeking a prestigious, comfortable, and centrally located residence, just steps from pedestrian shopping streets, public institutions, and the historic heart of the city. The property represents a rare combination of historical value and elegance, making it the ideal choice for those seeking a truly exclusive home.
