Description

There are houses that tell stories, and then there are homes that whisper ancient tales with every step. This is one of those. A place where history breathes within the walls, and architectural beauty blends with daily life. Designed in 1550 by the celebrated architect Michele Sanmicheli and lovingly and expertly restored in 1981, this elegant residence is not just a dwelling, but an experience. As soon as you cross the threshold, you are greeted by a feeling of tranquility and grandeur. The rooms of this home seem designed to welcome intense lives and memorable moments. Two master suites offer private and refined environments, ideal for those seeking maximum comfort without sacrificing the historical character that permeates every detail. The interiors retain all the original soul of the villa. The terracotta floors, artistically worn by time, the stone walls, the high ceilings with exposed wooden beams, and the monumental fireplaces that still know how to warm, even when they are extinguished. There are also spaces decorated with ancient frescoes, expertly restored, transforming each room into a small treasure chest of art. And as you cross the main hall or lose yourself in the more secluded corners, you realize that here, history is not distant: you are living it. Outside, the wonder continues. A park completely enclosed by an ancient wall guards the house like a treasure. It is a place designed for contemplation, for long walks under ancient trees, for reading a book in silence, or for enjoying the summer by the pool that sparkles under the sun, perfectly nestled in the greenery. If you love the idea of entertaining, this house was also born for this. The spacious porticos offer the perfect space to host events, dinners, outdoor parties, or simply to admire your car collection under an elegant and functional cover. And for every practical need, there are spaces dedicated to equipment storage, airy and bright cellars, and some outbuildings that can become guest houses, creative studios, or private retreats. This is not an ordinary property. It is a life choice. It is perfect for those who wish to live in a place where every day is a dialogue between past and present, between authentic beauty and contemporary comfort. A home that does not simply offer luxury: it gives depth, history, identity. If you are looking for something truly unique, something that speaks to the heart before the mind, this house could be your next chapter.

At the gates of Valpolicella, amidst vineyards and sun-drenched hills, lies this refined residence, nestled like a gem in one of the most enchanting and sought-after landscapes of Veneto. Its location, in Pescantina (VR), offers a perfect balance between the peace of the countryside and urban vibrancy, providing a lifestyle that combines the slow rhythm of nature with the convenience of the city. Just 15 minutes from Verona's historic center, with its theaters, art-filled squares, and romantic soul, the property allows for daily access to one of Italy's most beloved art cities. At the same time, the proximity to Lake Garda, reachable in under half an hour, opens the door to days spent exploring picturesque villages, harbors, watersports, and unforgettable sunsets. The area is served by excellent road and rail connections, including high-speed services, quickly linking Verona to Milan, Venice, and other major Italian cities. Verona Villafranca and Bergamo-Orio al Serio airports, easily accessible, guarantee convenient access to national and international destinations. Local infrastructure is excellent: schools, services, restaurants, and leisure activities coexist harmoniously with a natural environment of great value. The Adige River flows nearby, offering evocative views and perfect paths for relaxing walks, cycling, or moments of contemplation by the water. For lovers of culture and the good life, Valpolicella is a generous territory: Venetian villas, a UNESCO World Heritage site, excellent food and wine events, historic wineries, and typical products tell a story of strong and refined identity. The nearby Lugana area, with its fine white wines, further enriches the offer for connoisseurs. In such a unique setting, the property is not just a place to live: it's an invitation to live fully, surrounded by beauty, in a corner of Italy where every day has the authentic flavor of quality and wonder. Here, every dawn unfolds upon a natural masterpiece.
