Iconic Home Overlooking The Gasometer

Property with triple exposure and outdoor space in Trastevere

On the main floor of a 1930s villa, Engel & Völkers offers for sale an apartment with a functional layout, comprising an airy living area with ceilings approximately 3.70 m high, four windows, triple exposure and an easterly outlook. The kitchen’s French window, leading to the corner balcony, acts like a wide-angle lens, capturing the Gasometer and Trastevere railway station in a single view.

The three bedrooms face the opposite side of the property, towards the private Via Pietro Manzi. Although the layout is highly practical for modern living, the property can be customised through renovation to enhance the atmosphere originally designed by the renowned architectural historian Ada Marcianò. The home features several distinctive sculptural details that lend it elegance; it is a space that interacts with the light, combines materials and function, and embodies a clear concept, paying tribute to design and spatial vision. The marble flooring, with its central terrazzo decoration, is undoubtedly the beating heart of the home, which, if necessary, could once again be divided into two independent apartments.

The property also includes part of the porter’s apartment, located on the raised ground floor and currently rented out, as well as the laundry room on the top floor, where there is a panoramic communal terrace.

Located on what was once Viale del Re, dedicated to Umberto I, the building containing this apartment occupies the final stretch of today’s Viale Trastevere. The area features 1930s villas on one side and more recent buildings on the other, at a strategic junction where three neighborhoods—Trastevere, Monteverde and Ostiense—meet, with smooth, dynamic traffic. From Trastevere station, the airport is connected by train; tram line 8 reaches the city center in just a few stops, and a direct bus goes to Termini. Here, the city moves fast. For a taste of a slower pace, simply go up to Monteverde Vecchio; Testaccio is within walking distance, while Marconi offers every conceivable service. Teatro Verde is right below the building, attracting families from all over the city. San Camillo Hospital is just across the street. An unquestionably ideal location for “architecture lovers,” “Bobòs” and “DINKs,” just steps from the creative district of Portuense 201.
