PortaFelice is a gorgeous and bright penthouse on a prestigious contemporary architecture building that rises in one of the most beautiful squares of Palermo old town.
The apartment enjoys a unique view of the sea and a huge terrace for the exclusive use of guests.
From the huge terrace you will enjoy an amazing breathtaking view!
The building was built in the late 60s and is the result of collaboration between engineer Franco Amoroso and the prestigious firm of architects BBPR, which consists of the master of Italian Rationalism Gian Luigi Banfi Lodovico Barbiano di Belgiojoso Enrico Peressutti ed Ernesto Nathan Rogers.
This building is considered by experts one of the most important example of contemporary architecture in Palermo old town and is highly appreciated as expression of Brutalism, an architectural style which emerged during the 1950s in the United Kingdom, among the reconstruction projects of the post-war era.
In fact, the building rises from the ashes of a pre-existing Baroque palace destroyed by the bombings of the Second World War and represents a rare example of stitching between ancient city and modern architecture. In this regard, noteworthy is the ancient portal wisely preserved on the side on Via della Regia Zecca.
The apartment is fully furnished with fine furniture and equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay.
The main rooms overlook the terrace surrounding the apartment, and from this you can access the wonderful sun terrace on the roof of the building for the exclusive use of guests. Its position allows a unique breathtaking view of Porta Felice, the suggestive sea horse fountain, the seafront (foro italico) and the entire bay of the city.
We are in the ZTL (limited traffic zone), to access by car is necessary a Pass. Contact me to receive info on this!
