Rising at the entrance of the ancient town, 30 minutes from Vicenza, is this elegant neoclassical complex designed by Carlo Barbera in the late 1700s.

The complex is well maintained, having undergone major renovations in the 1980s and others more recently.

Among the hills of Valpolicella, one can find this fascinating example of a Venetian villa in neoclassical style, built by the architect Luigi Trezza; the architect modernized the country residence of Giuseppe Salis, the last descendant of a famous family of Veronese apothecaries, giving the main facade of the complex a Palladian style structure with a loggia in the center with Doric columns that characterize the main Villa. Due to its size and location, this property is suitable for both residential use and as a place of entertainment, suitable for hosting various types of events. On the ground floor we find a small living room, a large kitchen with an imposing marble fireplace, which allows you to immerse yourself in an atmosphere of times gone by, where you can feel the charm of history; on the first floor we find a large living room, with double exposure and splendid views of the hills, the vineyard and the park; this room divides the two wings of the villa where the six bedrooms are located.

To embellish this splendid property there is the presence of finds from the Roman era, such as for example in the entrance area of the villa where you can observe a counterweight of a large Roman press used until the last century.

In the small town of Isola Vicentina, an optimal geographical location convenient to the airport of Thiene and the highway network connecting the cities of Vicenza and Venice, the Dolomites, and southward Bologna, Florence, Rome, and westward Milan via Verona with the international airport reachable in about an hour as well as those of Tessera and Treviso, the villa is immersed in the large English-style park that surrounds it on three sides with centenary trees, rare and precious plants and a bamboo grove towards the large central lawn. The square-plan building, on two floors and a basement, is illuminated by windows with frames on the top with pointed and, alternately, lowered arches. The bright green color of the shutters creates on the white marble walls the villa's only exterior decoration of refined simplicity and strong impact. The original building dates from the early 19th century at the behest of Isabella Velo, a cultured, strong and gentle woman who gave the villa a footprint in which memories of the Baths of Caracalla, revisited through the designs of Palladio, are mingled, while the floors of the main floor are transformed into sumptuous marble carpets covered by the fragments of oriental and African marbles from the excavations of the Roman Baths. Even the walls and ceilings facing the round central hall are decorated with delicate paintings that echo the period's reproductions of the grotesques in the Stanze of Raphael and pupils. The villa was born in a particular historical context in which Isabella and her brother, who frequented the European courts, brought back the innovations learned among the new English industries and the gallantry of Parisian luxury, making the spacious rooms of the villa livable and welcoming with the large bright windows and the layout of the rooms designed for moments of serene conviviality. Successive owners over time continued to modernize it and make it more and more suitable for everyday life while maintaining its refined simplicity and richness of the rooms until the Guardini family equipped it with heating, modern bathrooms for almost all the rooms on the second floor and a very functional kitchen with adjoining dining room. Adjacent to the villa, on the northeast side, is the guesthouse with a large porch shaded in summer by cool American vine curtains. It consists of a spacious room, its walls covered with bookshelves, with a vast fireplace in the center surrounded by deep sofas for reading and resting. Further to the side is the laundry room and staircase leading to the upper floor where a bedroom with bathroom and a study adjoin the porter's quarters, also recently renovated. Separated by a gate, the rustic tool shelter and formerly used as a stable overlooks the courtyard bordering the lemon greenhouse. A second large gate leads to the countryside that completes the 10 hectares of the entire property.
