Description
Villa Amelotti - Valle S. Bartolomeo
Exclusively with the Repetto agency, we offer for sale this prestigious nineteenth-century historic residence with large park in the immediate vicinity of Alessandria and near Valenza, the city of gold. The villa is in a pre-hillside position, private but adjacent to the town.
Originally it belonged to the patrician family alessandra Rattazzi, of which the most famous representative was Urbano, a member and several times minister of the Kingdom of Italy, who in 1862 also covered the office of President of the Council of Ministers.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the property passed to the Levi, wealthy Jewish traders, and the Villa welcomed over the years between the two Wars, important guests such as Rita Levi Montalcini, Adriano Olivetti and the Count d'Alba, among matches with tennis and moments of great conviviality.
For a time, due to the racial laws promulgated in the 40s, the Levi were forced to leave it by taking refuge in Switzerland, making it return to War ended up taking back possession after, which for some years had been required by the local authorities. A curious history, which has as its protagonist a caretaker of the Villa in those years and a mysterious chest entrusted to him by the Levi to subtract it, has been recently narrated for images thanks to the contribution of the memory of the son of the latter.
In the second post-war period the complex was purchased by the Amelotti family, who lived and took care of it until recent times.
After crossing the automatic access gate to the doors of the inhabited, a long avenue leads to the Villa up to the courtyard in front of the elegant period façade facing south, adorned by a splendid wisteria.
The property has over time preserved the original architectural features, allowing you to still relive the undeniable nineteenth-century charm. On the back of the main building, a tennis court to be recovered refers with imagination to the period of greater worldly frequentation of the place, while the centuries-old plants of the park for a long time have been offering coldery and shady spaces for moments to be enjoyed outdoors in the summer.
On the west side, merged to the noble part, a rural building can be further restored from a residential point of view or used as a garage / tool shed and caretaker's house.
The main entrance of the Villa leads to an entrance hall that opens onto the spectacular internal staircase of the double ramp villa with period marble steps. On the left and on the right of the cozy atrium we are introduced into a succession of rooms with well-preserved original floors, including living room, dining room and kitchen, lounge with fireplace, bar area, pool room and music room with an ancient piano.
A basement below can be enhanced for more informal evenings between friends.
On the upper floor, which can be accessed via the two ramps of separate stairs, there is a large landing (which overlooks a room used as an office facing south) which serves as a hallway for access to the two sleeping areas spread over the east and west wings.
Both the wooden frames and the handles are almost entirely from period, as are the external shutters and the interior darkery.
Another spiral staircase from the first floor leads to a pleasant turret.
A careful and respectful renovation will allow you to bring back to the ancient fairs a property of great historical and architectural value, allowing you to use it as a prestigious multi-family house and enjoying the tranquility of the park, but at the same time the proximity to the city and the motorway exit of Alessandria west.
