Description
In the prestigious Castelletto district, on Via Palestro and directly overlooking the greenery of Villa Gruber, this distinctive penthouse is a rare opportunity for those seeking a charming investment property or an elegant pied-à-terre in the heart of Genoa.
Completely renovated, the apartment combines the allure of historic architecture with contemporary comfort. The original exposed wooden beams, glimpses over the city’s rooftops, and the intimate atmosphere typical of attic homes give the interiors an authentic, distinctive character.
The internal layout includes a bright living area, a separate kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom. The living area features regular ceiling heights and pleasant natural light, while the bedroom is located in the sloped-roof portion of the property. It is important to note that the rooms under the eaves have particularly low ceilings, with a maximum height of about 1.90 meters. For this reason, although the property has a larger cadastral area, the effectively usable and comfortably functional space is approximately 60 m².
The property is located on the eighth and top floor of the building. The elevator serves up to the sixth floor, and the last two floors are therefore accessible exclusively by stairs, a feature that helps ensure peace, privacy, and a commanding position over the surrounding context.
A distinctive feature of the property is its private portion of the panoramic rooftop terrace, accessible from the condominium stairwell. From here, one enjoys an extraordinary 360-degree view over the city, the surrounding hills, and all the way to the sea, offering an exclusive space ideal for relaxing, sunbathing, or enjoying the city from a privileged vantage point.
Thanks to its central location, proximity to the city center, the property’s historic charm, and the presence of the panoramic terrace, this property is a particularly attractive solution for those seeking a prestigious base in Genoa or a real estate investment able to stand out in the high-quality rental market.

Location: Castelletto, Genoa
Situated in Castelletto, this property enjoys a truly privileged location, where the vibrant heart of Genoa meets one of its quietest, most residential enclaves.
Just steps from the entrance is Piazza Marsala, a lively, elegant square that naturally blends into daily life, offering a carefully selected range of cafés, restaurants, and boutiques. From here, the city opens up with ease: Via Roma, Genoa’s most prestigious shopping street, and the historic center are both within convenient reach.
Yet, despite its immediate proximity to the city’s most dynamic areas, the atmosphere around the property remains distinctly calm and green. Opposite the residence stands Villa Gruber, a historic 19th-century villa set within a pleasant park. Once the private home of an important Genoese family, it now offers a serene retreat, with centuries-old trees, shaded paths, and open views over the city.
This rare setting ensures a perfect balance between urban energy and residential tranquility, bringing the best of Genoa within easy reach while preserving a sense of calm and privacy.
