This architectural structure is distinguished by the use of captivating scenic elements such as mullioned windows, turrets, and crenellated walls, which masterfully recall the neo-medieval style, lending the whole a fairytale allure.

A portico on the east façade elegantly opens onto the internal courtyard, creating a visual and functional connection with the main villa. This building underwent substantial renovations in the 1980s: the roof was completely redone with wooden beams, the floors were completely replaced, and the entire perimeter was reinforced with an amaranth-colored pigmented concrete curb. Some walls were consolidated, others were built from scratch, making the building a solid and versatile foundation for future transformation into a luxury residence or hospitality facility. The park, which extends over 32,000 square meters, once cultivated as an orchard, still preserves centuries-old trees and clear traces of the original 19th-century garden, with historic paths, decorative sculptures, and mythological references representing the Four Seasons and the Greek myth of Leda and the Swan. The entire property underwent significant and careful restoration in the early decades of the twentieth century and later in the 1980s, which preserved its structural integrity and architectural beauty, enhancing the nobility of the setting. This exclusive residence, immersed in the quiet of the Emilian countryside yet just a short distance from the city center, represents a rare opportunity for those wishing to live or invest in a prestigious property, surrounded by charm, history, and absolute privacy. *Property for sale exclusively through Coldwell Banker.
