Apartment with terrace in Barcola

Barcola, a two-minute walk from the seafront. On the second floor of a residential building with a lift, set among cedars and tall trees, an apartment of 121 m² of covered cadastral area, wrapped on two sides by a terrace of about 56 m².

The terrace

This is the heart of the home. It runs the length of the living room and continues under the branches of a large cedar; awnings make it usable even in the hottest hours, and tall wooden French windows open it to the rooms inside. On the kitchen side there is a second balcony.

The interior

The entrance hall has a marble floor with a diamond inlay. The living room is a single, generous space with a wall of built-in shelving and light from more than one side. Then come the separate kitchen, currently empty and ready to be fitted, two bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and two bathrooms, both with windows. Marble in the hall and living room, parquet in the sleeping area, where a corridor lined with full-height cupboards leads to the rooms.

The third bedroom

The original 1975 design had three bedrooms; the apartment was built with two bedrooms and a larger living room that takes up the space of the third.
