Villa La Quiete in Mezzana, dating back to the second half of the 17th century and owned by various noble families, extends over more than 1,280 sq m on four levels. Set within a centuries-old park with an avenue of monumental chestnut trees, it is an elegant aristocratic residence, featuring a symmetrical layout, large reception rooms, loggias, and a striking staircase. The interiors are enhanced by Venetian terrazzo (seminato) floors and ceilings decorated with allegorical paintings attributed to Vincenzo Martinelli and Pietro Fancelli.
The ground floor opens onto a central loggia connecting a grand reception room with access to the garden, seven living rooms, a kitchen and two bathrooms. A monumental hall with ceilings over 12 metres high and a stone fireplace houses the main staircase leading to the piano nobile, where there is a second reception room, six bedrooms and two bathrooms, including one with an original period bathtub. The property also includes a small tower with ancillary rooms and a basement level with cellars and service areas.
Distinctive features include the boiserie and neo-Gothic furnishings of the dining room, introduced by Professor Neri during the post-war restoration. The interiors retain neoclassical decorations, Venetian terrazzo floors and highly charming original details. The park of over one hectare, with valuable mature trees, completes the property together with the availability of numerous parking spaces.
A unique residence for its history, elegance and representational character, ideal as a prestigious home or representative headquarters.
