Historical villa for sale in Franciacorta
This wonderful historical villa for sale is in the exclusive Franciacorta area, just two kilometers from the shores of Lake Iseo, Lombardy.
Surrounded by the vineyards producing the most popular sparkling wine in Italy, this property is perfectly connected to the cities of Milan and Verona.
This villa has a typical L shape, measures approximately 1,700 m2 and overlooks a wonderful internal courtyard featuring cobblestones and an old well.
The main façade features a big front door made of sandstone and depicting the crest of the family that has owned the property since the 13th century; this door leads to the main body. A majestic staircase then leads us to the first floor, home to an 18th-century gallery; the double-sized hall leads to both the living and sleeping areas, and overlooks the garden, with windows that let pleasant sunshine in.
The second floor has been completely renovated and divided into two modern apartments with designer furniture. On the ground floor there is a portico with coupled columns and sandstone floors, leading to a number of rooms: a guestroom with frescoed vault, an old, 15th-century kitchen with decorated vaults and a big sandstone fireplace with the family's noble crest, and some 15th-century cellars with barrel vaults.
A convenient elevator allows us to reach all apartments independently.
This luxurious estate is surrounded by a centuries-old park measuring approximately 4,500 m2, offering great privacy and a wonderful swimming pool in an intimate area.
This property also includes two big annexes that currently need some renovation works and are fine examples of “industrial archaeology”: the charming 19th-century spinning mill has all the features to be converted into a luxurious spa and complete this luxury villa's comforts.
