The real estate property, a former Bank of Italy branch, is located in the historic centre of Caltanissetta, in a prestigious urban context. The property, built in the 1970s, is intended for a credit institution, accommodations, offices and warehouses. The building, by virtue of its central location, can be redeveloped with residential and office functions.
The property consists of a single building divided into five aboveground floors (including the roof) and two underground levels; it borders to the north with the Banco di Sicilia building, to the east with a condominium courtyard with Palazzo Moncada and Banco di Sicilia, to the south with Via Giacomo Matteotti and to the west with Corso Umberto I.
The property is used partly as offices (basement, mezzanine and first floors) with main entrance from Corso Umberto I no. 126, and partly as service accommodation (second and third floors) with entrance from Via G. Matteotti no. 4. On the roof level there are three attic rooms and the main technological installations.
A driveway entrance can be found on Corso Umberto I, which leads to the garage in the basement, used for loading/unloading; the offices have two secondary entrances, one reachable via an external corridor, towards the driveway entrance and the other from Via G. Matteotti, next to number 4; the one in Via G. Matteotti no. 2 leads to the technical rooms on the first basement floor.
The structure is built with foundations on isolated plinths connected by beams and resting on bored piles, a load-bearing structure in reinforced concrete, mixed floors in terracotta and reinforced concrete, as well as retaining walls in reinforced concrete.
The property is located in the historic centre of Caltanissetta, in Sicily. The property is located along Corso Umberto I, on the corner of Via G. Matteotti, a short distance from Corso Vittorio Emanuele with the Fontana del Tritone, in an area well served by public transport and parking spaces. The headquarters of public institutions (Municipality, Prefecture, Revenue Agency) and the most important monumental buildings of the city, such as the “Regina Margherita” Theatre and the Cathedral of Santa Maria La Nova can be found nearby. The area is accessible via the Viale della Regione – Viale Conte Testasecca road starting from State Road SS640, which connects the city with the A-19 motorway, with the “Caltanissetta” exit located 15 km away. The property is 650 meters from the “Caltanissetta Centrale” railway station, which guarantees connections with the cities of Catania (110 km away) and Agrigento (55 km away). The international airports of Catania and Palermo are respectively 107 and 160 km from the property.
