10 bedrooms villa, 2400 m²

Bulciago, Lecco (province)

Christie's International Real Estate - Milan Exclusive is delighted to present this exceptional historic estate for sale. Built in the early 18th century on the remains of an earlier 15th-century structure and once the residence of archbishops, this remarkable estate is one of the finest examples of Lombard Baroque architecture, set within approximately six hectares of private parkland.

The property is currently undergoing an extensive conservation restoration of the villa's noble section. Many of the interiors have already been carefully restored with meticulous attention to their historical integrity, preserving original ceilings, fireplaces, decorative features and architectural details.

The piano nobile is approximately 90% complete, while much of the restored space is offered unfinished, allowing the future owner to complete the interiors according to their own taste and the highest contemporary standards.

The residence comprises elegant suites with en-suite bathrooms and walk-in wardrobes, guest bedrooms, formal reception rooms, dining rooms, leisure areas, a charming jardin d'hiver (winter garden), the historic orangery, impressive vaulted wine cellars with exposed brick ceilings, and a spacious attic featuring its original exposed timber roof structure.

The estate's rural section, including the farmhouses and ancillary buildings, has not undergone restoration and retains its original character in its entirety. These buildings offer significant redevelopment potential, providing generous volumes and exceptional opportunities for conversion into additional residences, luxury hospitality facilities, event spaces, a wellness centre or other prestigious uses.

The historic park, with its elegant axial layout, centuries-old trees and multiple independent entrances, ensures complete privacy while enhancing the property's timeless character.

An estate of exceptional historical and architectural significance, where the advanced restoration of the principal villa is complemented by the remarkable potential of the original buildings still awaiting redevelopment, offering the opportunity to create a truly unique and prestigious property.
