Immersa in un contesto naturale di straordinaria bellezza, presentiamo una prestigiosa dimora storica situata tra le colline di Biella. Costruita negli anni Ottanta dell\u2019Ottocento in stile Liberty e restaurata negli anni Venti dall’architetto Chevalley, la villa conserva ancor oggi molti degli arredi originari, offrendo un\u2019atmosfera che richiama epoche passate.<\/p>\n
For a long time it was an important meeting place for intellectuals and prominent political figures of the 20th century, frequented by illustrious writers and personalities such as Giulio Einaudi, Norberto Bobbio, Cesare Pavese, Augusto Monti, Leone Ginzburg, Pirandello, Montale, Levi and the owner himself Franco Antonicelli.<\/p>\n
A majestic double staircase leads to the main entrance of the villa, known as the Poets' Hall, characterised by refined French stucco decorations and opening onto four themed rooms: the Billiard Room, the Tea Room, the Dining Room and the Games Room. In the centre of the villa is the large ballroom, from which one ascends via a grand marble staircase to the upper floor, where one finds the refined bedrooms, furnished with fine period furniture, together with the library and gallery.<\/p>\n
The villa has 13 bedrooms, including several charming suites and spacious bathrooms embellished with elegant marble tiling.
\nThe residence also includes numerous service rooms, a study, a pantry and other rooms distinguished by fine details, such as frescoed ceilings, large windows overlooking the park, original fine wood floors and several working marble fireplaces.
\nTo complete the property, there is a guest annexe of about 200 m\u00b2 and an elegant orangery on two levels, with a total area of about 500 m\u00b2, ideal as an accommodation facility.<\/p>\n
The property, surrounded by high stone walls that guarantee maximum privacy, enjoys a splendid secular park with the evocative backdrop of the Biella Pre-Alps.
\nDesigned in 1910 by the famous Biella nurseryman De Bois, the park is a landscape masterpiece and includes an Italian garden with box hedges and ancient roses, as well as a rich selection of Mediterranean shrubs and plants. The villa and park frequently host works by internationally renowned artists, including a recent sculpture by renowned local artist Michelangelo Pistoletto.<\/p>\n
This villa guarantees privacy and serenity while being only a few kilometres from the city centre and about an hour from the famous Mont Blanc ski area.<\/p>\n
