Genoa, Genoa, Liguria, Italy

Property Description

There are homes, and then there are residences that tell a story.

Located on Via Assarotti, this property overlooks the city with remarkable presence. The three key words that define its essence are: light, history, and elegance. This 335 sqm apartment fully embodies the Genoese Liberty style. The moment you step inside, the apartment reveals its historic soul: original graniglia floors and beautifully preserved period details. The proportions are generous yet harmonious, offering both grandeur and comfort. A marble fireplace defines one of the main reception rooms and serves as the focal point of the living area. Large windows and balconies open outward, framing wide views over the rooftops and toward the sea. The light shifts throughout the day, giving the interiors a dynamic, almost cinematic quality.

An internal staircase leads to an exceptional feature, rare in the city center: a vast panoramic terrace. Suspended above Genoa, it offers extraordinary open views of the sea and an outdoor space capable of transforming everyday life into special moments to be enjoyed in the open air.

The property also includes a mezzanine level, adding further character and flexibility, ideal as a children's playroom, private study, or creative retreat. Thanks to its dimensions and proportions, the residence offers remarkable versatility. It can remain a single prestigious home or be thoughtfully divided into two elegant apartments, both enjoying beautiful light and views.

This is a property for a discerning client who appreciates architectural authenticity, generous space, outdoor areas, and the rare combination of history and sea views.

Location Description

In 1852, the vision of creating a straight axis through a grand avenue lined with elegant residences connecting Piazza Corvetto to the elevated Piazza Manin became reality. Three centuries earlier, this architectural trend had begun with the opening of the Strade Nuove. As evidence of its expansion, building façades were designed to echo those of the 16th century, featuring finely decorated stucco work and period architectural elements.

Today, Via Assarotti thrives as a predominantly residential area, enlivened by a variety of commercial activities: refined fashion boutiques, inviting restaurants, stylish hair salons, as well as essential services such as supermarkets and pharmacies. It is an ideal location for those seeking a peaceful home close to the city center or convenient access to the city's main amenities.
