Penthouse over the Rooftops of San Nicolò
In the stretch of Via San Nicolò that leads towards Piazza della Borsa and the Rive waterfront, a restored period building holds this penthouse of approximately 140 m² on its top floor. A lift takes you up to a home completed in 2018 with bespoke artisan finishes: parquet, windows and panelling designed to follow the pitch of the roof, which becomes the architectural motif of the whole living area.
The living room is the heart of the penthouse: a long, bright space whose windows frame the red rooftops of the old town, the hills and — on the opposite side — a glimpse of the sea. The kitchen is separate, with an intimate dining area beneath the attic roof. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe; a second room works as a study or guest bedroom. The second bathroom, with shower and tub, has a skylight that opens onto the night sky.
Independent heating, air conditioning throughout, a storage room and a laundry complete a specification designed for year-round living, with an energy efficiency rare in a historic building in the centre.
It is a home for those who want Trieste on foot: two minutes to Piazza Unità, the Molo Audace or the historic cafés on the Rive, with Miramare Castle on the horizon. The listing is handled in collaboration with Rigatti Group.
