The "vicolo" (little street) Savelli is immediately adjacent Piazza Navona, and also near Piazza Campo de' Fiori. It is a quiet street.

All most renowned Italian artists, including Bramante, Borromini, Bernini, Cortona and Michelangelo left their contribution of masterpieces in this quarter.

It is an apartment achieved from a little church (!), inside a 16th century palazzo, whose cloister was made by Bramante (!). You will have it in front of your door. The cloister, like the entire palazzo, is extremely quiet.

From the foyer one enters: the master bedroom (spiral stairs to the left), the kitchen (door to the left), the bathroom (door to the right, after the lamp), and finally the large sitting / dining room at its end.

The apartment is approximately 70 sq. Mts. (app. 710 sq. Ft.), and it is at the ground floor, immediately facing Bramante's cloister. As mentioned, it is absolutely quiet. The entrance is followed by a foyer, which has quality and tasteful furniture. The entire apartment was tastefully designed, with fine fittings. As you can see, the apartment is endowed with the original 16th century "cotto" floors.

The photo to the right shows the large sitting - dining room, as it appears at the end of the foyer.

Sitting-dining room
As you can see in this opposite view, fine lamps, a carpet, a shelf with a Hi-Fi set, a little table for the telephone complete the room, together with with fine paintings. The large space has three lower windows, and four higher windows. This spacious room includes also two large built-in wardrobes (closets). Their doors have the same delicate pastel colour of the walls, and they cannot be easily singled-out in the photos. You can see their doors on both sides of the corridor bringing to the foyer, in this photo to the right. An air conditioner is placed in the sitting room in summer.
   
The large sitting room is divided in two sectors by a large, high, and long wooden antique bookcase (photos above). The bookcase thus creates two sections. In the first one you find the above mentioned sitting / dining room, in the second there is a very charming study area (right photo). The study is endowed with a bed, a desk with its chair, two little tables with two fine lamps, fine paintings.

**This property is unique in its own right, as it is an architecturel jewel. However, please consider that because of its intrinsic nature (i.e. because it was the chapel of the noble family owning the palace), and although it has 10 windows, it does not receive if not scarcely direct sun light, it is not bright. With special lights prepared by electricians under the guidance of architects, the property is made normally bright, however, if you are looking for a bright property with normal sunlight, this is not suitable for you. **
