Description

Facing Via del Canale Piccolo, five floors up, Unit 20 is a wide, light-filled home of 239 m² gross with four rooms, drawn from the complete renovation of Palazzo Dreher — the eclectic late nineteenth-century building that carries the name of the old Dreher brewing family.

A broad entrance opens onto the large open-plan living area with its visible kitchen. The sleeping side holds three bedrooms: two share a bathroom, while the master keeps its own en-suite. The proportions are generous, meant for anyone after space and standing right in the city centre.

The systems are brand new — underfloor heating, ducted cooling, high-efficiency heat pumps — and the seven-storey building has a lift. Finishes follow a premium specification: Italgraniti, Florim and Cerdomus stoneware, Parador oak parquet, Treemme taps, Ceramica Cielo sanitaryware, with the interior style set between modern and classic.

Sold new by the developer, delivered turnkey, at € 1,390,000 plus VAT, with first-home tax relief where it applies. No parking unit: this is the fully pedestrian old town, the sea a few minutes away on foot. Completion is expected by the end of 2027. It forms part of the TriesteVillas Private Collection.

For each unit we make and update “real” 3D tours of the building site.

A mortgage for this home

€4,392a month

for a €973,000 mortgage (70% of the price) over 30 years: 360 monthly payments at a fixed rate

TAN: 3.54%; nominal annual rate
APRC (TAEG): 3.67%; total annual cost, fees included

A first estimate, made with the help of AI from official data: it is not a mortgage offer. The amount, rate and terms are decided by the bank after its own assessment.

TAN from the average of fixed-rate (over 10 years) mortgages signed in Italy in August 2026 (provisional): ECB, Bank of Italy data.

The guide: mortgages in Italy for non-residents

Italian banks usually lend non-residents 50-60% of the value: “I live abroad” redoes the maths.

How we do the maths

The rate

It is the average rate of fixed-rate (over 10 years) home loans signed in Italy in the month, collected from banks by the Bank of Italy and published by the ECB about five weeks later (harmonised MIR statistics). The TriesteVillas CRM downloads it every night: when a new month comes out, the figure here updates by itself. Fixed-rate loans use contracts fixed for the same term (up to 5 years, 5 to 10, over 10); variable-rate loans use variable-rate contracts. The published figure is a compound annual rate without fees: for the monthly payment it becomes the nominal rate, TAN = 12 × ((1 + rate)^(1/12) - 1). Latest data: August 2026, provisional.

Over a year this average moved from 3.31% (August 2025) to 3.60% (August 2026).

This month's offers may differ: the best ones are often below the average, with conditions (down payment, energy class, guarantees, insurance). That is why the rate above can be changed.

The payment

French amortisation, with a constant payment: R = C × i / (1 - (1 + i)^(-n)), where C is the capital, i the TAN divided by 12 and n the number of payments.

The APRC (TAEG)

The annual cost of the whole loan, computed with the cash flows of the EU directive: on top of interest, the costs usually paid to the bank and the State. Substitute tax 0.25% (€2,433), arrangement fee €1,000 (assumption), valuation €350, fire insurance €219 a year, payment collection €3 a month. The notary's fees stay out of the APRC, as the law provides (art. 120-quinquies of the Italian Banking Act): they are included in the cash needed at the deed. For comparison, the average APRC of home loans signed in Italy in August 2026 was 3.99%.

Cash at the deed

The down payment, the purchase taxes estimated for this home under the chosen regime, the agency fee with VAT, the loan costs paid at signing and the notary, for the purchase and for the mortgage. The notary is our estimate, given as a range, not a quote: since 2012 the fee is agreed with the notary, who, having seen the documents, gives a written estimate before being instructed. The bank lends on the value set by its own valuation: if the valuation comes in below the price, the loan goes down, not the price.

The income

The one-third rule comes from the Bank of Italy's consumer guide: a prudence measure for choosing an affordable payment, not the criterion a bank uses to decide. Every bank assesses income, expenses, age and guarantees on its own.

What it is not

It is not a credit offer or advice. TriesteVillas is not a bank, a credit broker or a credit agent, and not a mortgage comparison site. This calculator, built with the help of artificial intelligence, makes a first estimate from official data and the rules written here; the maths runs in the browser and nothing is saved.

How we used AI in these photos

12 of 17 photos retouched with AI: 6 edited and 4 simulations, marked on the photo; 2 in light and colour only. The viewing remains the only reference.

How we edited them

The photographs in this listing were taken in June 2026, while work was under way: the apartment's interiors, the common areas, the facades and the views from the windows and balconies. Of the 17 published photographs, 5 are real photos, with no artificial intelligence, only light and colour adjusted locally (the facade and the common areas of the building). The other 12 were edited with a generative image model (Google's Nano Banana family, used through the Higgsfield platform); 4 of them are simulations and are marked as such on the photo. 3 show the interiors as they might look once finished: the model removed tools, rubble, plastic sheets and materials, closed the plasterboard walls that are still open and imagined parquet, smooth white walls, skirting and sockets.

In the other 9, which show the building and the views, the model removed, depending on the photo, people, a scooter, traffic lights and road signs, a banner, a wall lamp, notices and posters, a doormat and an aircraft contrail, and warmed the light; in one it replaced the daytime sky with a sunset sky or with clouds that were not there. No furniture and no light fittings were added. The tiled stove is real and was left in its place.

Where something was removed, what it hid was not photographed: the model reconstructed it, plausibly. The floors, walls, sockets, internal doors and cladding seen in the interiors are the model's guess, not the specification: today the apartment is a building site, with bare walls, systems in progress and no floors laid. The model was instructed not to touch windows, doors or room geometry; it did so in most images, but not always: the open chases in the ceiling are shown as beams or lowered sections that the design may not include.

The caption of each photo says what changed. Facades, window frames, stairs and lifts are real, and so are the views, except for the sky and what is stated above; the sunset light is simulated. The unedited originals of the other photographs are available on request.

Finishes and layout are defined by the floor plans and the specification; a viewing remains the only reliable reference for the property's actual condition.
