luxury apartment for sale Assisi, Italy

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION In the heart of the historic center of Assisi, a few meters from Piazza del Comune, the Basilica of Santa Chiara and ten minutes from the Basilica of San Francesco, stands this prestigious sixteenth-century palace, built on the remains of an ancient Roman settlement dating back to the 1st century BC. The residence, guardian of over two thousand years of history, has welcomed cardinals, counts, and noble Umbrian families over time, becoming a silent witness to the religious and civil events that shaped the seraphic city. Today, thanks to a meticulous restoration, it combines the timeless charm of its origins with the comforts of contemporary living. STATE AND FINISHES The property has been meticulously restored, preserving and enhancing the details of its historical origins. The generously sized apartment is located on the main floor and comprises a large entrance hall with a single staircase leading to a spacious mezzanine level, which can be used as a bathroom and dressing room. The entrance hall leads to a stunning double ballroom, ideal for hosting guests and potentially becoming the property's reception room. The separate kitchen (to be designed according to the future owner's needs) will be located in a large windowed room opposite the ballroom. The sleeping area comprises three magnificent rooms that will become the main suites, complete with two large bathrooms and a possible two guest bathrooms. In addition to the three suites, there is a spacious study with more recent decorations. The entire apartment is richly decorated with impressive 16th-century frescoes that lend an unparalleled elegance and make each room unique. OUTDOOR SPACES The main entrance opens onto a grand reception hall with access to the original stone staircase. From here, you access the main floor. Furthermore, there is a second large and very convenient entrance, which, due to the difference in height of the street, facilitates direct access to the floor. The strategic location in the center of Assisi allows you to enjoy, from every window, spectacular views of the palaces and churches that surround the splendid Assisi and its historical value. USE AND POTENTIAL This property is a perfect blend of past and present: ideal as an exclusive private residence for those seeking a sense of history and style, but also perfect for a prestigious home, a prestigious venue, or a refined, charming accommodation. Its location, in the heart of one of the world's most iconic cities, makes it a unique proposition.
