Apartment for sale in Via San Sebastiano, Palermo, Sicily

We present to you the magnificent main floor of Palazzo Coglitore, the historic residence of the baron of the same name, an architectural jewel located in the heart of Palermo, built in 1792, between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. With its 487 square meters of pure elegance, this extraordinary apartment is a perfect example of how different artistic currents blend harmoniously, creating a unique and fascinating atmosphere. Crossing the entrance door, we are welcomed by a large entrance hall, once used to receive carriages and horses, which leads to a staircase in red Verona marble, decorated with light marbles, creating a visually pleasing contrast and giving the imposing staircase a timeless elegance. On the left wall, just before the entrance, stands a half-bust in marble in memory of Baron Salvatore Coglitore, two imposing stained glass windows and in the center of the stairwell a majestic nineteenth-century chandelier softly illuminate the entire room. Entering inside, it is as if time had stopped: a first large room introduces the others, with walls and ceilings adorned with frescoes, above wooden doors and boiserie, while the majolica floors, different for each room, tell stories of a bygone era. From this first entrance hall, you enter an even larger room, also rich in frescoes, and from there you reach an imposing room located exactly in the center of the house, as if it were its heart. This majestic room, the core of the house, has an enormous fresco on the roof depicting "The Sacrifice of Iphigenia", signed by Vincenzo Riolo, a famous painter of the time. While the one to the right has a fresco by Elia Interguglielmini depicting "The Triumph of the Goddess Diana". There are eight larger rooms in total, and all have similar characteristics between them, including original wallpaper and frescoes.
