Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Palazzo Estate presents one of the most beautiful and prestigious period residences in the province of Pisa. This charming property, built starting from the 18th century, represents one of the most suggestive places in the Pisan territory.The villa designed by Alessandro Gherardesca opens onto a green space: "the secret garden" which with its flowerbeds and the water features of the fountain leads to the lemon house. Immersed in a 1.3-hectare park, characterized by centuries-old trees and well-kept vegetation that evolves with the seasons, this residence offers an oasis of tranquility and unparalleled privacy, the size and beauty of the park, an exception in the region, represent a true treasure, enveloping the villa in an atmosphere of exclusivity and serenity. The main villa is spread over 4 levels, with a total of 1700 square meters of living space. In 1964 it was chosen as the set for some scenes of the film A Yellow Rolls-Royce by Anthony Asquith, with Alain Delon and Ingrid Bergman. The family lived in the villa until 1975, after which it lived twenty-five years of serious abandonment, until 2000, when it was affected by extensive restoration work.The false balcony roof was original, while the façade shows symmetrical openings, with a large terracotta coat of arms on the top. Inside, the ground and first floors are organized around a central hall, with the same motif as the serliana. The frescoes that decorate the various rooms and small rooms were created in later periods and range from mythological figures in the sober style of Luigi Catani, to nineteenth-century stencil fantasies, up to the floral fantasies of the Liberty style. The garden has a neoclassical structure with a large semi-circle surrounded by columns and with palm trees in the center in front of the main façade of the villa, while to the south there is an Italian-style walled garden (secret garden), where there is also a small chapel (from 1803) and a lemon house with an opening characterized by columns. At the back there is a romantic English-style park. A swimming pool completes the property.Invia commentiRiquadri lateraliCronologiaSalvate
