Apartment, 50 m²

Ivrea, Turin (province)

Canavese

Within the iconic residential complex known as Talponia lies a truly unique apartment, perfect for those seeking a home with significant architectural and historical value. Located between Via Jervis and Via Miniere, in a strategic position close to the city center and the railway station, this semicircular complex is a masterpiece of modern architecture. Designed in the 1960s to house Olivetti employees, it is now part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The complex, originally named *Unità Residenziale Ovest*, is one of the most distinctive creations of the Olivetti system in Ivrea. Built on artificial terrain, it is almost entirely underground, except for its façade, which faces the internal courtyard. As its nickname "Talponia" suggests, it resembles animal burrows, being invisible from the outside except for its domes that discreetly emerge from the surrounding garden-a detail that fascinates architects and design enthusiasts worldwide.

The apartment for sale is located on the upper floor of the complex and consists of a single, modular space thanks to dividing curtains. Large windows provide extraordinary brightness and create a visual connection with the outdoors. The bathroom is equipped with a bathtub, and the apartment is sold fully furnished, offering a move-in-ready solution. Heating is provided by an installed air conditioning system, ensuring comfort throughout the year. Completing the property is a designated parking space in the shared garage-a key convenience for those looking to live or invest in this area.

This apartment represents an excellent investment opportunity due to the growing demand for practical and functional rental properties in such a central and well-serviced location. Its proximity to all major services, combined with its compact yet functional layout, makes it perfect for students, teachers, or tourists drawn to Ivrea's industrial and cultural history, now an international point of interest.

A rare chance to own a piece of modern architectural history, in a setting that combines innovative design, convenience, and a strategic location.
