Petrella Palace

The residence is also situated next to the 15th-century Palazzo Baldelli, a National Monument, making this address one of the most significant in the entire historic centre of Cortona. The entrance and layout A grand entrance leads into the flat. The property has two separate entrances, a particularly rare feature within a historic centre: a layout that offers considerable flexibility, allowing the residence to accommodate separate spaces for guests, private accommodation or professional use, or to function as a single prestigious residence. The materials and restoration The conservation restoration was designed to preserve the building’s original identity without altering its character. The traditional terracotta floors have been retained and complemented by a refined herringbone parquet in three varieties of wood, creating a dialogue between historic materials and contemporary craftsmanship. The result is a residence that feels authentic rather than reconstructed. The bedrooms and fireplaces The master bedroom occupies what was once a noble alcove, adapted to contemporary living with a bespoke walk-in wardrobe integrated into the original layout and an antique fireplace, perfectly preserved as a distinctive feature. A second bedroom also retains its own historic fireplace. The third bedroom completes the sleeping area, bringing the total to three bedrooms and three bathrooms.
