An elegant historic residence in the heart of Trapani
one of the most iconic buildings in trapani′s historic centre, this elegant period residence combines architectural prestige, rich history and contemporary comfort.
designed in 1939 by architect decio attilio marrone for the burgarella family, one of trapani′s most prominent entrepreneurial families, historically associated with the tuna fishing and salt industries, the building retains all the charm of early twentieth-century sicilian architecture, enhanced by a meticulous restoration.
extending over approximately 9,688 sq ft, the property is arranged across several levels. the main entrance, featuring an impressive trapanese stone staircase, leads to the residential floors. on the ground floor are two commercial premises fronting corso vittorio emanuele, together with their storerooms and warehouses, a self-contained apartment with independent access from via botteghelle, and an additional commercial unit currently under lease. the first floor is home to an elegant residence with a covered cloister that has been transformed into a bright conservatory, while the second floor accommodates a further apartment with a private terrace.
the property is crowned by a panoramic roof terrace of approximately 1,400 sq ft, complete with utility rooms and solar panels, as well as a second private outdoor space. beautifully preserved original features, including historic flooring and carefully restored window frames, further enhance the property′s character.
thanks to its generous dimensions, architectural significance and exceptional location, it is ideally suited either as a distinguished private residence or as an exclusive boutique hospitality property.
