Elegant property in a historic building, Civita Castellana

In the historic center of Civita Castellana, Engel & Völkers is pleased to offer for sale a portion of a property located in an important and ancient palace: “Palazzo Montalto Belei”, built on the traces of a medieval structure. The palace evokes the history of a bygone era, when time seems to flow slowly through frescoed halls furnished as a meeting place and to host the nobility of the 16th century. This residence underwent significant restoration works between the late 1990s and the early 2000s. The palace façade has been completely renovated, and the entrance hall was restored to its former splendor in 2005. Entering the main floor of approx. 400 sq m, one finds representative reception rooms preserving frescoes by Antonio Tempesta and Cavalier D’Arpino. The approx. 6 m-high coffered ceilings provide natural light that warms each room, finished with original terracotta floors from 1580 or colored marbles dating to the late 19th century. In the rooms overlooking Via di Corte there are tempera-decorated salons, another fireplace, and large windows that reflect light on mirrors and furnishings, enhancing every corner of the home with the nuances of valuable pieces. The main floor has double entrances, a dining room, an industrial kitchen, three bathrooms, a master bedroom, a study, and a long service balcony. This elegant apartment, with many interconnected rooms, recalls the grace of living in refinement: the wooden ceilings soften the gaze, the fireplaces frame the walls suggesting a story that flows from the frescoes into the soul; the white English-style windows and the wooden doors with stone surrounds represent all the moments that can be lived calmly when you come home after a day of chaos between work and commitments. Passing through a corridor with an internal staircase, you reach the upper floor of approx. 100 sq m, where there is a walk-in closet, a living room with a second open-plan kitchen, a bedroom, a laundry room, a bathroom, and a terrace overlooking the inner courtyard. Going out onto the palace staircase, you reach the second floor where there is another apartment of approx. 200 sq m, empty and unfinished, completely to be renovated, ideal for those who wish to customize the spaces and bring back to life a forgotten home. Returning to the entrance hall, there are two rooms included in the sale: a room used as a library and a storage room. A short distance from the palace, in a nearby alley, there is an additional storage room that could serve multiple purposes. Who could such a striking property be intended for, if not clients with deep artistic, representative, or entrepreneurial interests. These refined, cultured spaces, furnished with valuable pieces, can have multiple uses, both residential and commercial, for dining or hospitality/tourism purposes. *This information and the floor plans are purely indicative and do not constitute contractual elements.
