Luxury and history for sale: the apartment where Raphael lived in the center of Rome in Piazza Navona
In the heart of Rome, a short distance from Piazza Navona, there is this rare chance for sale: a refined 308-sqm apartment with a 30-sqm terrace. This prestigious estate, located on the second floor of the enchanting Palazzo Chiovenda, the first place where Raphael lived in Rome, is now for sale, with the possibility of purchasing two parking spaces with direct access. This property is a mix of luxury, history and culture, offering an extraordinary opportunity to experience the best that Rome has to offer.
The area around Piazza Navona is a labyrinth of charming streets and alleys, full of shops, cafés, restaurants and art galleries. Via del Governo Vecchio and Via di Parione are just two of the many picturesque streets offering a taste of authentic Rome. Near Piazza Navona, visitors can explore a number of historical and cultural attractions such as the Church of Sant'Agnese in Agone, designed by Francesco Borromini, the Fountain of the Four Rivers and the Pantheon.
Palazzo Chiovenda, built in the early 1500s on a design by Baldassarre Peruzzi, stands out as an elegant testimony of the Roman Renaissance. The palace is famous for having hosted celebrities such as Raphael Sanzio, when he moved to Rome, Gregorio Leti, one of the major figures of Italian Libertinism in the 17th century, and the noble Chiovenda family at the end of the 18th century from whom it takes its name. The brick and peperino façade, overlooking a historic square, encompasses a history of art and culture, being originally owned by Raphael and later by the Reverenda Camera Apostolica.
This apartment, the subject of careful restoration in 1980 and subsequent works in 1997, occupies the entire second floor of the building. The interiors, featuring very high ceilings, exposed beams and overlooking enchanting cloisters, offer an extraordinary living space. This estate houses a master bedroom with a bathroom, two double bedrooms, a spare bedroom, and 4 bathrooms. Details like restored floors and elegant furnishings add a distinctive touch.
The apartment also stands out thanks to its 30-sqm terrace, offering a unique panoramic view of the city. Furthermore, the opportunity to purchase two parking spaces directly under the building adds an element of exclusivity and convenience.
This is not just a real estate purchase, but an entrance into a world of luxury and history. With Piazza Navona a short distance away and the history of Palazzo Chiovenda as a backdrop, every day here is an immersion in the beauty and culture of Rome. The purchase of this property is an invitation to become an integral part of the rich history of this fascinating city, an experience that goes beyond the walls of this apartment.
