The Abode of Ancient Walls

We are at the top, right where history becomes living stone. We are inside the fortified complex of the Castle of Conegliano, and from here, our residence majestically overlooks the entire hill. When we cross the garden threshold, our steps slow on the manicured lawn. All around is green, about 4000 square meters of tranquility that stretch up to the medieval wall, a centuries-old boundary protecting the west side. It's a unique sensory experience to approach walls that date back centuries, feeling the cold of the ancient stone to the touch and the robustness they still convey today. The property consists of two buildings, each with its own soul. The main residence welcomes us with its timeless elegance. The interior spaces are spacious, flooded with natural light filtering through the large openings, and convey all the deep warmth typical of well-preserved historic buildings. The large living room is the heart of the house, with the fireplace suggesting evenings of chatter and warmth, a welcoming contrast with the robustness of the external walls. Next to it, the spaces continue with the living room and a large kitchen, designed for grand occasions. Upstairs, the five bedrooms offer us wide prospects of rest and privacy. From every room, there are accesses that guide the gaze towards all cardinal points, and the horizon opens onto the UNESCO heritage hills. Among these views, we linger on the large terrace on the first floor, a natural stage where the air is cooler and the panorama can be savored calmly. The visit culminates on the fourth floor, where the panoramic tower stands. Here, surrounded by the breathtaking view, we imagine a study or a gym for Yoga. We leave the main residence to visit the other unit, a 560-square-meter building currently rough. The walls and structure have been expertly restored. This portion directly connects to the ancient walls and ends up incorporating an 11th-century tower. It's almost a journey through time to touch these stones, feeling the weight of the history they carry. Its considerable dimensions offer the perfect canvas for any type of project: we could make it a second luxury residence, a guest annex, or even connect it to the existing house to create a large representative villa. Finally, the property is completed by the garage for four cars and a discreet apartment, originally conceived as accommodation for service staff, now ideal for welcoming guests with every comfort. This visit leaves us with an impression of solid, historical majesty. The combination of the central location, in the pulsating heart of the city and the UNESCO hills, and its integration into the historic fortifications, is unparalleled. Due to its characteristics, our property is particularly suitable for a representative function. We see in these spaces the ideal location for those who want to live in a place steeped in history, while at the same time offering a top-level residence for a demanding family or as the headquarters of an activity that requires a setting of prestige and impact.
