The real estate property consists of land that extends for 13,230 sqm; on the flat, multi-level portion, various buildings can be found, which are in a poor state of repair. The open area on street level (Building Registry – Common Property not Subject to Taxation – sub-plot 1) leads to all of the structures (Building Registry from sub-plot 2 to sub-plot 9). The first floor constitutes the walkway that overlooks the buildings, while the first underground floor overlooks the moat. The sub-plot 2 structure, damaged by fire, and the sub-plot 3 one are divided into two aboveground floors, while the remaining buildings are on a single level. The buildings are made of stone and rectangular bricks, with double sloping roofs. The property, declared of cultural and landscape interest, is subject to the constraints imposed by the Ministry of Culture.
According to the Town-Planning Scheme of Genoa, the property partially falls within the conservation scope of non-settled territory (AC-NI, “Ambito di conservaizone del territorio non insediato”) so as to safeguard and enhance the landscape and environmental framework, with the main functions permitted relating to the agricultural and livestock sectors. Complementary functions open up the possibility of using existing structures, through their redevelopment in terms of recovery and opportunities for use.
The real estate property is located in the semi-central area of Genoa (population 561,191), capital of the Metropolitan City of the same name, north of the urban area, in a hilly position overlooking the Lagaccio district, one of the most densely populated in the city; the area is well served by public transport and has a good range of retail businesses. The property is located in a territorial area aimed at the recovery and redevelopment of the territory, represented by the redevelopment of the Gavoglio Barracks and the seventeenth-century defensive system; in its vicinity, a future cable car stop will be built, which will connect the defensive system of the Genoese Forts with the city. The Genoa Porta Principe railway station, which guarantees connections with the main Italian cities, is located 2.5 km away from the area (7 minutes by car), while the ferry terminal is approximately 4 km away (10 minutes by car). The “Genova Ovest” exit of the A-7 motorway (“Autostrada dei Giovi”), which connects the city with Milan, is approximately 6 km away from the property (12-15 minutes by car), while the “Cristoforo Colombo” international airport is located 9.5 km away (15-20 minutes by car).
