Period villa with chapel, period pool
Designed by Piero Portaluppi between 1932 and 1934, this extraordinary historic villa is one of the most important examples of Italian Rationalist architecture and is officially listed by the Portaluppi Foundation. Set within a vast 200-hectare estate in Somma Lombardo, near Milan, the property offers a rare synthesis of architectural excellence, history and unspoilt nature, while remaining close to major transport links and Malpensa Airport. The main villa spans four levels and approximately 994 sqm, featuring original furnishings, artworks and a rich library that reflect both the architect’s vision and the family’s heritage. Interiors include grand reception rooms, refined dining spaces, a historic wine cellar, five bedrooms and four bathrooms, all preserved with exceptional authenticity. Additional buildings include a gatehouse apartment, a chapel, a former hunting lodge, a barn, and a garage. The estate lies within the protected Ticino Park and includes centuries-old woodland, cultivated land and formal gardens with a vintage swimming pool and 1930s gazebo. Completely enclosed and private, this unique property is ideal as a prestigious residence or an exclusive event venue, where architecture, landscape and history coexist in perfect harmony.
