A very bright apartment that is effectively a studio plus a fully enclosed terrace that has made a second sitting room and place for an extra bed - some of the best views available. Up to 3 people.
The Apartment
The apartment was completely refitted/designed by an architect to harness all the best features of this location. Very clean and bright, the apartment is composed of a simple kitchen, with enough facilities for simple meals, a bathroom with bath and shower (in which is also the washing machine) and the lounge which is pictured with a brand new very comfortable sofa bed (140 cm wide). There is satellite television also (ie, not just Italian channels).
The last room in the house is the terrace which is fully enclosed (with double glazing) and has some magnificent views (the others are from the other side of the apartment).
Access and Environment
The apartment in on the 7th floor (with a lift) and has windows on both sides making it light and airy. There is no particular noise from the street or anywhere else.
The Location
The apartment is about a 15 minute walk to the historic centre, or about 5 minutes on one of the frequent buses. Testaccio is where the Roman born and bred either live, or more likely, would like to live. The borgo centres around both a central square/park, where every morning older folk come to sit, and new mothers congregate to share time. In the adjoining Piazza, there is a large covered daily market (120 odd stalls) selling everything from fresh fish and produce to shoes and books.
Features
The main feature of this apartment is the modern environment - not common in Rome. The location provides both the ability to enjoy a Roman home while still providing good access, by either a short walk or a short bus ride to the historic centre.
