Trapani, Trapani, Sicily, Italy

Located in the very central Via Fardella, a few metres from the beach and the Tramontana coastline, this magnificent property dating back to the end of the 19th century consists of a gallery with earthen warehouses paved with ancient stone paving stones, carefully preserved and surmounted by vaults and arches that make it unique and of a very high value.
An independent staircase leads from the courtyard to a small flat on the first floor overlooking it.
A large opening adjacent to the entrance door leads to the beautiful, monumental main staircase. Here a useful lift, although a contemporary element, integrates perfectly with the context, embellishing it. On the second floor, a large flat, revolving around a central light well, overlooks the main street with balconies, occupying the entire floor area. This apartment, which was once used as an office, has a commercial use and is paved throughout its ample size with Sicilian tiles from the early 20th century, with frescoed roofs and doors and fixtures of fine manufacture.
On the third floor, there is a prestigious flat on three levels, all connected by a wood and glass staircase and with large outdoor areas on each level.
The entrance hall, which can also be used as a hallway, leads to a study, the living rooms, a bedroom and a kitchen with a cellar underneath; from the kitchen a door opens onto a furnished inner veranda that gives the entire property ample living space. On the upper floor there are two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and a study from which a further internal staircase leads to the terrace above and to the solar slabs from which there is a view over the city and the sea. Still on the third elevation, finally, there is an independent annexe with a bedroom, walk-in wardrobe, living area, bathroom and terrace.
The finishes are of high quality, the floors are marble and parquet, and all the flats are equipped with gas heating and air conditioning. Ideal both as a prestigious home and as a residential and commercial investment.

Known as the city of Salt and Sail, Trapani derives its name from the Latin Drepanum, which means sickle, exactly because of its shape. A land where history, culture and nature blend together, the entire province of Trapani creates something unique: within it, there are steep cliffs and extensive beaches, but also archaeological finds and small villages with the most authentic traditions. In itself, the city is characterized by monuments and churches as well as palaces, fountains and squares. The crucial central point is the harbour, which has undergone through several changes over the time: the last one being on the occasion of the last America's Cup. The morphology of the territory of Trapani has always marked the life of its citizens.
