A prestigious, spacious apartment for sale within the sixteenth-century Palazzo Cellamare, one of the oldest noble palaces in Naples. The apartment is approximately 200 square meters, with ceilings nearly 5 meters high, and spans two floors. From the entrance, through an elegant corridor, you enter a first hall, followed by a double lounge, two large and bright bedrooms, a kitchen with dining area, a master bathroom, and a guest bathroom. Ascending an internal staircase leads to another double bedroom and a second full bathroom. The apartment is very quiet, thanks to its location away from the main street, and boasts significant features of security, privacy, prestige, and comfort. It offers both an internal view of a private garden, also of sixteenth-century origin and undergoing renovation, and an external view, thanks to the particular position of the palace overlooking the central district, reaching out to the sea. The setting is of remarkable architectural and historical charm. Palazzo Cellamare has hosted many illustrious guests since its construction: among them, Giacomo Casanova, Goethe, and Torquato Tasso, as well as being the last Neapolitan residence of Caravaggio. Today, the palace is home to noble families, entrepreneurs, and professionals. Palazzo Cellamare dominates Via Chiaia, considered the city's most central street, connecting Piazza del Plebiscito with the Chiaia neighborhood towards the Posillipo hill. The port of Naples, linking the city with the islands of the Gulf, the Teatro San Carlo, and the UNESCO World Heritage historic center of the city, are just a few minutes' walk away. The location of Palazzo Cellamare allows one to experience the city of Naples in a truly unique way. Owners are allowed access by car to the pedestrian zone and parking in the palace courtyard. The main entrance, both pedestrian and drivable, is from the central Via Chiaia, but owners alone can also access by car from a secondary entrance, from the Rampe Brancaccio, which on occasion significantly reduces city traffic. Significant works (authorized and monitored by the Superintendence of Archaeology, Fine Arts and Landscape of Naples) are nearing completion, including seismic improvement and complete refurbishment of the external facades and internal common spaces.
