Historic dwelling in a dominant position

This historic residence, already mentioned on military maps as a gendarmerie and lookout post for Napoleon's troops, belonged to the De Castelmur family and later to Baroness Salivetto. The panoramic position it enjoys is enviable; peace and privacy are total and the view sweeps 360 degrees over the entire Alpine arc. The current owners bought it and completely renovated it in the 1980s, preserving the existing valuable features and with top-quality work. Upon entering this extraordinary prestigious residence, a large and bright hallway leads to a staircase of particular scenic effect; precious marble, wrought iron railings with moulded oak handrails lead to the upper floors in an atmosphere of great elegance. On the ground floor, to the right and left of the entrance hallway, there are two large living/living rooms with a fireplace, where double windows with lead-decorated glass panes are reflected in the chequered marble floors. The large eat-in kitchen, a bathroom and a laundry room complete the floor. Outside, to the south, a 160-square-metre terrace overlooks the park, swimming pool and tennis court, while a well-kept garden of about 600 square metres frames the house. On the first and second floors, the rooms are developed in a mirror-image manner to the right and left, with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and two walk-in wardrobes on each floor. The two bedrooms occupying the two turrets at the far end of the house display double-height ceilings with exposed wooden beams and unparalleled brightness. Part of the basement floor is used as accommodation for the caretaker and is completed by a large tavern with double barrel vaults that looks out through large windows directly onto the outside garden. The land surrounding the estate has an extension of approximately 2 hectares in a single body, including a wooded part, park and garden, and completes the property.
