Description
The villa at auction from the 1400s is characterized by its majestic frescoed rooms, two large barchesse, a Church-Oratory, a central courtyard and a park. With a total surface area of 13,994 m2.
The asset is located in a strategic position just 6 km from the center of Verona (10 minutes by car) and from the Verona-Est motorway exit. The area is located south of the village of Montorio Veronese, a tourist destination known for the ancient remains of the Medieval Castle.
The historical-architectural complex from the 1400s represents an exclusive location for hosting events of all kinds: weddings, ceremonies, corporate and private events, gala dinners, exhibitions and concerts. Thanks to its splendid internal rooms, with prestigious frescoes by Bernardino India, collaborator of Andrea Palladio and the Bottega di Jacopo Ligozzi, the villa up for auction is also an ideal place for film sets.
The surface area of the villa is 3900 m2, with an extension of the external spaces, including both the courtyard in the center of the Villa and the park to the south, of 13,994 m2, therefore approximately 1.4 hectares.
The layout of the historical-architectural complex is a central courtyard, surrounded on the sides by buildings, according to the typical scheme of the Venetian villa.
At the center of the central body stands a nucleus on three levels above ground, with typical central halls passing through to the ground and first floors and lateral rooms of symmetrical dimensions. On the ground floor, towards the central courtyard, there is a portico preceded by three round arches, resting on stone columns. This nucleus is surmounted in the roof, in the centre, by a tower with a pitched roof.
The lateral portions of the central body are developed on two levels: on the ground floor, facing south, there are the majestic rooms with frescoes from the 1500s. Among these, worthy of note, is the Hall of the Emperors, whose frescoed ceiling is by by Bernardino India. The two symmetrical porticoes overlook the internal courtyard and are supported by arches resting on Veronese stone columns, with entasis and capital in simplified Doric style.
On the first level there are large living spaces, with the internal slopes of the roof exposed.
On the east and west ends there are the two dovecote towers which rise two further levels compared to the adjacent structure, exceeding the central tower in size.
The ancient cellar represents a peculiar element of the villa up for auction, with an important monumental aspect and accessible via a staircase inside the central nucleus.
Two first rooms develop under the central hall. A large room, with a vaulted roof, is in turn reached via another gentle staircase, with a barrel vault.
