Apartment for sale, Siena RBX35240

Luxurious Apartment in Via di Città with Garage | Close to Piazza del Campo and in front of Palazzo Chigi Saracini, the historical seat of the Accademia Chigiana, is this noble apartment located inside Palazzo Cinotti. The building is protected by the ministry of cultural heritage and dates back to the 16th century. Through a large courtyard and a wrought iron gate by arch. Fantastici, after two flights of very well maintained stairs you reach the apartment. The entrance door leads to a comfortable hallway. Immediately on the right, we find the kitchen overlooking the internal courtyard and the Facciatone of the Cathedral. Continuing we enter a spacious and bright double bedroom and a bathroom with window. Diametrically opposite to the kitchen there is a big living room overlooking Palazzo Chigi Saracini and the dining room. The notes of the violins and the piano that come from the Accademia Chigiana sometimes offer a romantic soundtrack on warm summer evenings. Crossing the corridor and leaving a windowed closet on the right, we first reach a single bedroom, and finally the Master bedroom with en suite bathroom. Both rooms overlook Via di Città and the Chigiana. In the master bedroom, we cannot help but notice a painting in the keystone. The fresco, recently recovered, represents Io, the woman loved by Jupiter, transformed into a heifer to save her from the wrath of his wife Juno, and guarded by Argos. Some historians attribute the fresco to Baldassarre Peruzzi and therefore to the late 1400s, while others to Giorgio di Giovanni, thus dating its painting to the mid-1500s. The apartment is perfect both as an income investment and as a residential property. It is completely renovated with taste and refinement. The current owner in fact wanted to harmonize the ancient style, enhancing the frescoes and the beautiful terracotta flooring, with the modern, giving the house a sober elegant look. The apartment is being sold together with a large 39 sqm garage located on Via Tito Sarrocchi.
