History and Character:
Built in 1824, this elegant Italian city palace is distinguished by its grand arcade and sits at the north-western corner of Piazza Garibaldi, the main square of Soresina. Its spacious 689m² of living space spans across three levels, offering a blend of classical design and historical significance.
The Palazzo Soresina includes an expansive first-floor apartment adorned with original features, a large attic area, and additional living spaces on the second floor. The ground floor houses a separate commercial property with its own entrance from Via Marconi, ideal for various uses, whether residential or commercial.
The building’s superbly preserved architectural elements present excellent potential for development, offering the possibility to create several large apartments, maintain the property as an elegant family home, or even combine residential and commercial functions.
GROUND FLOOR:
The property’s original main entrance opens directly onto Piazza Garibaldi, offering a welcoming arrival into the long, tiled vestibule (16m²). This area leads to the central staircase, courtyard, cellar, and storage space.
The ground floor features:
- A private courtyard (75m²) with a separate entrance from Via Marconi, providing ample space for vehicle parking.
- A self-contained commercial unit (71m²) with its own entrance, offering excellent opportunities for rental or conversion for residential or commercial use.
- A wine cellar and additional storage areas.
The original tiled floors, doors, lighting, stair railings, windows, and floor tiles all add to the building's character, maintaining its authentic charm. The staircase leads up to the first and second floors, as well as the attic.
FIRST FLOOR:
The spacious first-floor apartment (296m²) boasts three independent entrances, making it possible to divide the space into two separate apartments. The apartment is accessed via an entrance hall/vestibule, which leads to the following rooms:
- The main living room or salon. This grand space is decorated with stunning wall and ceiling frescoes, original ceiling mouldings, lighting fixtures, and a traditional fireplace. Two windows/balconies provide views over Piazza Garibaldi.
- An adjoining dining room/office. This room is also accessible from the entrance hall and features parquet flooring and a third window with a view over the square.
- A bathroom with original tiled work, though in need of modernisation.
- A small dining room and adjoining kitchen, which can be renovated to create a larger kitchen/dining area with access to the terrace overlooking the courtyard.
- From the living room, two large bedrooms and a walk-in wardrobe/small third bedroom are accessible. The first bedroom (with a window facing Piazza Garibaldi) features parquet flooring and is adorned with frescoed walls and ceilings.
SECOND FLOOR:
The second floor (250m²) with original exposed beams, flagstone floors, doors, and windows includes:
- A self-contained apartment with 3 rooms, its own kitchen, and a bathroom.
- An attic area with a private entrance, currently used as storage.
This apartment can be accessed via the central staircase on the second floor.
The layout offers great potential for development, either as a large single apartment, separate bedrooms, or even two to three smaller apartments or studios.
