In Orias historic centre, along the atmospheric route leading to the ancient synagogue in the old Jewish quarter, this 18th-century palazzo portion offers 170 sq m of walkable interior space (around 140 sq m on the main floor) and an outdoor feature that is genuinely rare in an old town: 209 sq m of panoramic terraces, with roughly 190 sq m on a single level. The arrival is memorablean entrance hall with a dramatic split staircase: the central flight opens directly onto the main terrace, while two symmetrical stairways rise to an elegant arcaded loggia. Inside, a grand hall is distinguished by a vaulted ceiling with a central coat of arms, setting the tone for a home where heritage is part of daily life. The layout has been started with hospitality in mind: two generous ensuite bedrooms open towards the terrace and the town skyline. From the terrace you also reach a large independent suite with kitchen, bathroom, dining area and a bedroom featuring a hydromassage tubideal for a premium guest stay or private quarters. At street level, an additional room with direct access can become an extra bedroom or practical storage for bikes and equipment. Renovation has already begun, with new systems in place to be completed. A building filing will be required to finish works or reorganise the interior. As this is the historic centre, façades cannot be altered and no new external openings can be created.
