Elegance, history, and signature architecture in the heart of Villafranca di Verona

In the heart of the historic center of Villafranca di Verona, surrounded by a private park of over 3,500 square meters, stands a 1939 rationalist villa of rare beauty and impeccable preservation. The history of the Villa is part of the military infrastructure projects of the Regime in the 1930s, when a German general of the Wehrmacht commissioned its construction as his residence while overseeing the expansion of the existing Verona airport, destined to become an important operational and transport base during the Second World War. The Villa represents a testament of the era, and purchasing it means entering a place that is part of the aeronautical memory and geography of northern Italy during the Second World War. Arranged over three main floors for a total of 482 commercial square meters, the residence welcomes guests with ceilings over 3 meters high and an impressive helical marble staircase, a true masterpiece of craftsmanship and the scenic focal point of the home. Perfectly habitable and finely restored in respect of the original, the villa offers five bedrooms, three bathrooms, bright living rooms, and representative spaces ideal for a high-level private residence or a period residence for executive, representative, or hospitality use. The original floors and bathrooms, in white Carrara and Brazilian pink marble, have been restored with philological care, preserving the purity of the materials and the natural brightness that characterizes each environment. The decorative bas-reliefs on the ceilings, created in the 1930s, further enrich the spaces with a sober elegance and an unmistakable historical charm. The centuries-old park that embraces the property, dotted with majestic Cedars of Lebanon over two centuries old, represents an oasis of tranquility and prestige in the full urban center — a perfect balance between privacy, nature, and centrality. This property is not just a house, but a fragment of history, a place that holds memory, architecture, and prestige, destined for those who recognize the authentic value of time and Italian cultural heritage.
