This prestigious property is located in Marsala, one of the most famous cities in Sicily and one of the most popular tourist destinations on the island. In fact, it is located just 15 km from Trapani's Vincenzo Florio airport, making connections quick and easy.
Marsala is famous for its splendid salt pans and its windmills, which at sunset offer priceless views and become a meeting place for people of all ages thanks to the presence of numerous characteristic clubs, bars and restaurants that overlook them. The salt pans are located in the “Riserva della Laguna dello Stagnone” a magical and timeless place, ranked first in the special Expo ranking of the 2014 census. Marsala is also sought after for its proximity to the Egadi islands, to which it is connected by frequent hydrofoils and whose main stop for tourists from all over the world but also for Sicilians, is certainly the famous Favignana.
The property is located in the historic center of the city, in an elegant and stately setting, on the second and last floor of a 19th century Art Nouveau building, then revived in the early 20th century. Although it is a second floor, it is located quite high up, as there is a good 8 meters in height between one floor and another of the building.
The apartment is approximately 400 square meters, with 5 meter high ceilings, elegantly frescoed and 50cm thick walls. The property is embellished with 6 frescoes dating back to 1911 by the Palermo Art Nouveau painter Salvatore Gregorietti, author of pictorial interventions on the ceiling of the Sala dei Viceré in the Palazzo dei Normanni. The second floor includes 6 double bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, but the real gem is certainly the imposing elegant hall in perfect Sicilian Baroque style. A timeless but always current room, in which a majestic fresco decorates the entire surface of the high ceiling: a true work of art. The hall is connected to two other rooms currently used as a dining room with a red marble fireplace and a comfortable study. The apartment elegantly alternates wonderful floors in pietra serena, decorated concrete and parquet.
There are three balconies, two of which overlook the main street, while the third and last one overlooks the internal courtyard. There is also a widely habitable attic, with ceilings of approximately 2.20 m.
There are three entrances to the apartment, one of which is paneled with a bookcase for the personal taste of the current owner and due to lack of use, while the other two are located at the end of two flights of stairs, also in pietra serena and with a cast iron railing, which lead one to the main entrance and the other to the service entrance.
To complete the property, on the ground floor a dream annex: a two-room apartment of 57 square meters with double bedroom, bathroom and eat-in kitchen that overlooks the 100 square meter garden, equipped with a wonderful swimming pool with solarium and a canopy under which to place a table and chairs.--af07c194fd76bcdb16f67a0243daab12!
