Description
Refined two-level penthouse located in the prestigious Castello area of Cagliari, specifically in Piazza Carlo Alberto, within the exclusive Palazzo Barrago. The east side of the square is formed by the wall supporting the flight of stairs connecting the area to Via Canelles above, beyond which can be seen the facades of the former City Hall and the Cathedral. At the base of the stairs is a marble slab decorated with the city's coat of arms in Mannerist style, the work of sculptor Scipione Aprile, reminiscent of the construction of a fountain, now lost. Located on the 4th and 5th floors of an elegant Art Nouveau building with a private elevator, this property offers a unique and charming residence, ideal for those who wish to live immersed in the beating heart of Cagliari. On the 4th floor, we enter through an elegant entrance hall that leads to the bright living room, a versatile study, and two welcoming bedrooms. A wooden staircase with a wrought-iron railing leads to the upper floor. The fifth floor features two large dining rooms, one featuring a charming fireplace, a functional kitchen, a bathroom, and a comfortable bedroom. The main dining room offers direct access to the spectacular panoramic terrace, which offers breathtaking views of the Basilica of Santa Croce. The building is located in Castello, on the bastion of Santa Croce, in the area bounded by the street of the same name, Via Corte d'Appello, and Piazzetta Santa Croce, where the main entrance to the church is located. Attached to the basilica is the vast complex of the former Jesuit college, which now houses the University of Cagliari's Faculty of Architecture, and the harbor, with the sea stretching to the horizon. The second dining room opens onto a second habitable balcony, offering enchanting views of the city and the sea. The entire property is tastefully furnished with attention to detail, following a rustic style that lends warmth and character to the rooms. A true oasis of comfort and beauty in the heart of Cagliari. Furthermore, the Attico's strategic location allows you to walk to all the city's main attractions: just 3 minutes away is the Bastione di Santa Croce and the renowned Libarium, while the Torre dell'Elefante, the second-tallest medieval tower in Cagliari after the Torre di San Pancrazio, is about a 5-minute walk away. This home therefore represents not only a unique residential opportunity, but also an ideal base for exploring and fully enjoying all that Cagliari has to offer.
