4 Bed Apartment
We offer for sale an apartment located on the fourth and fifth floors of the ancient and prestigious Palazzo Capocci (now Palazzo Vajani since 1830).
Located in the heart of the historic center of Perugia, in Corso Vannucci, the prestigious Palace boasts a splendid view of the Fontana Maggiore and the Cathedral of Perugia.
From a beautiful historic wooden door overlooking Corso Vannucci, you enter a vaulted corridor that leads you to the staircase where a modern glass lift has recently been installed.
The entrance to the apartment opens onto a large and bright living room with fireplace, kitchen, three bedrooms and bathroom. Going up a spiral staircase you reach a mezzanine open to the living area, a double bedroom, a second bathroom and a laundry room. Finally, on the top floor stands the splendid and unique panoramic terrace, from which you can admire the evocative Umbrian landscape from Perugia to Assisi at 360°.
A terrace that leaves you speechless thanks to its dominant position, from which you can experience the most prestigious events in Perugia in the front row or on which you can enjoy a little relaxation at sunset.
The apartment enjoys a unique position with most of the rooms overlooking the Cathedral of S. Lorenzo and the Fontana Maggiore. The apartment benefits from natural brightness throughout the day thanks to the triple exposure of the property and the two velux lights located on the roof of the building.
The historic Palazzo Capocci acquired its current appearance in 1591, when Cardinal Domenico Pinelli decided to transform the alley called “Rimbocco degli Scudellari” into a wide street between the large square and the small square and entrusted the project to the Perugian architect Valentino Martelli. In the hidden part of the Palace, it is possible to admire a splendid Gothic brick staircase.
