Description
Villa Calzolari is an 18th-century historic residence located in the municipality of San Giorgio di Piano, in the province of Bologna. The villa is known for its impressive travertine staircase, a significant architectural feature that reflects the elegance of the era.
The main villa is arranged on four levels and is composed as follows: service entrance on the ground floor directly onto the two kitchens, dining room, living room, storage room, two bathrooms, and access to the characteristic internal courtyard in addition to the ancient cellars.
On the first floor is the main entrance, accessible by two important staircases. This level houses two large living rooms, a lounge, a hallway, three bathrooms, three large bedrooms, and a spacious attic.
The second floor is accessed via a hallway and features six bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The third floor accommodates a living room, a lounge, four bedrooms, and three bathrooms.
Completing the property is a large attic, ideal as a storage or storeroom.
On either side of the main building are the wings reserved for the services of the ancient farm, once used as warehouses, equipment storage, granaries, and offices, currently disused but in good condition and convertible into apartments or suites.
Located behind the main building is the unit used as a greenhouse/orangery made with a large iron and glass structure, unused for several years.
At the edge of the park is the family chapel, typical of villas of the era, with access from both the private property and the public Via Mascherino. Its state of preservation has remained good over the years thanks to the particular attention of both the previous and current owners.
Situated on the east side of the main building is the building used as the caretaker's residence. Currently occupied by a family with a regular rental contract, it is in good maintenance condition, arranged over two above-ground levels and composed on the ground floor of an entrance, living room, a habitable kitchen, a large cellar, the bathroom, a charming porch, and the boiler room. On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, a second bathroom, and a hallway.
Finally, the large fully enclosed park with multiple access points is in excellent condition with centuries-old high-trunk planting and numerous regularly cataloged trees. In the park, we find the tennis/basketball court and the bowling green.
