Palazzo Haggi — Apt. 4 · 113 sqm · floor 2 · San Vito, Trieste

A private garden of about 56 square metres, for the exclusive use of the apartment — in the middle of Trieste's historic centre, that can be counted on one hand. Apartment 4 sits on the second floor of number 4, Via Benedetto Marcello: 113 commercial square metres in a well-resolved two-bedroom plan — entrance hall, a wide living area with kitchenette opening onto the greenery, a good-sized master bedroom with wardrobe zone, a second single bedroom and two bathrooms, one with a shower and a service bathroom. This is no token terrace but a garden you can actually live in, rare this centrally and minutes from the sea.

The building is one of the works signed by Ruggero Berlam, among the designers who shaped Umbertine Trieste. Its neo-medieval façades — projecting string courses, columns, capitals — are listed by the Soprintendenza and restored to their original colours; the historic stone entrance hall and staircase have been recovered. The project is a complete renovation with seismic upgrading and an energy overhaul. The district is San Vito, a five-minute walk from Piazza Cavana and seven from Piazza Unità d'Italia.

The plant: a high-efficiency air-to-water inverter heat pump, a condensing boiler dedicated to hot water, underfloor heating and split cooling, rooftop photovoltaics and a hydraulic lift. Parador Oak Bardolino Natural herringbone parquet, Tibur Cerdomus 60x120 stoneware bathrooms, SDR Terra Quadra sanitaryware, Treemme taps, Garofoli Mirabilia doors, double-glazed timber windows (white inside, walnut outside) and a reinforced entrance door. The energy certificate is issued on completion.

The sale carries VAT (4% primary residence, 10% second home) on top of the 575,000-euro price, and the Art. 16-bis TUIR renovation bonus, over ten yearly instalments (on 25% of the price, at the rate and spending cap of the year of the deed), may also apply. Garden and location make it a capable income unit as well — tourist and short-term lets under the 10% cedolare secca flat tax, a field TriesteVillas has worked in Trieste since 2013. Turnkey handover to be agreed, construction in progress. The ground-floor garages are sold; the cellars are available and parking can be bought at Via Giustinelli 13. The images are the developer's CGI renders, not real photographs of the unit — 3D scans and viewings on request.
