In one of Testaccio’s most iconic Art Nouveau buildings, overlooking the historic Piazza dell’Emporio, we are offering for sale a property of approximately 240 square metres, boasting rare character and great residential potential.
Built in the early 20th century, the building stands out for its refined ochre-coloured plaster façade, travertine cornices and Art Nouveau-style stucco decorations. The main entrance is via an entrance hall featuring original wrought-iron doorways, a suspended lantern and a perfectly preserved period mosaic floor.
Situated on the mezzanine floor, with dual access from the pleasant communal courtyard and overlooking Via Amerigo Vespucci, the property boasts a well-structured and flexible layout, ideal for use as office space or for a high-quality residential conversion. The high ceilings and generous proportions of the rooms offer ample design possibilities: the property can be converted into a large single-family home or, where permitted, divided into separate units.
The property is currently registered in the A/10 category – offices – with the possibility of applying for a change of registration to category A/2 – residential properties.
Testaccio is one of the capital’s most sought-after neighbourhoods: an authentic, lively and well-connected area, with the covered market, historic trattorias, the MACRO Testaccio and walks along the Lungotevere just a short walk away. The Aventine Hill, the Circus Maximus and the Parco della Resistenza complete an urban setting of rare quality. The Circo Massimo metro station (Line B) is about a 5-minute walk away.
Located near Rome’s historic Tiber River, this property offers easy access to central landmarks and cultural venues. Key transport hubs include Roma Ostiense train station and Fiumicino Airport within 30 minutes by car. Nearby fine dining, upscale shopping districts, and outdoor spaces along the river enrich urban living with convenience and heritage.
