Located in the charming historic village dating back to Roman times, in a stunning position in Valcuvia, the property for sale is situated at approximately 500 meters above sea level, within the Campo dei Fiori Regional Park, just a few kilometers from Lake Maggiore. This prestigious complex, dating back to the 16th century, offers a unique blend of architectural and naturalistic value, with a rich history that includes distinguished guests such as Giuseppe Garibaldi and the artist Aligi Sassu.
The noble palace, once a hunting lodge of the Visconti-Sforza family, spans four levels totaling approximately 1,100 square meters of gross area, enriched by a private garden of 900 square meters. The horseshoe-shaped building retains original historical elements such as stuccoes, frescoes, and fireplaces, overlooking a large inner courtyard. Inside, there are elegant halls with decorated wooden coffered ceilings, as well as numerous dining rooms and living areas. An adjacent tower, with frescoed loggias and panoramic terraces, offers additional living spaces, while a former complex of stables and barns has been converted into 6 separate apartments.
The property also includes two small independent buildings and a large green area of approximately 5,000 square meters, with gardens and terraces adorned by lush vegetation. Particularly noteworthy is the majestic wisteria from 1587, one of the largest in Europe, which embellishes the inner facade of the palace.
The property represents an investment opportunity for the creation of a scattered hotel, a concept that combines the experience of staying in a historical setting with modern comforts. The entire village, with its captivating medieval center, is perfectly suited for this project, with potential for tourist and commercial development through the creation of holiday homes, restaurants, and shops. The strategic location, close to numerous lakes and tourist attractions, ensures a high potential for attracting the growing tourism in the area.
