Via Fiori Chiari, Brera: historisches Bauwerk und Investition

In the heart of Brera, on Via Fiori Chiari, the neighborhood’s ancient bakery is now a residence of particular charm. It is accessed from number 2, passing through the courtyard of a historic building, to reach number 4: an internal building dating back to the 17th century, secluded and private, away from street traffic.

According to tradition, the building housed Brera’s old bakery. The exposed brick vaults and coffered wooden ceilings are original from the 17th century and make the spaces a direct testimony to the area’s history.

Spread across the ground floor, mezzanine, and basement, the home underwent a refined renovation in 2024 that preserved its most characteristic architectural elements while integrating contemporary solutions. This creates a harmonious dialogue between historical memory and modern living comfort.

On the ground floor, the entrance leads to a versatile space designed as a study and reception area, with a double sofa bed that can accommodate two additional guests. From here, stairs lead to the mezzanine, where the double bedroom is located, topped by the coffered wooden ceiling.

The basement houses the living area, with a living room and equipped kitchen beneath the beautiful exposed brick vaults, as well as a marble-finished bathroom with a walk-in shower.

The walls are enriched by frescoes created in 2000 by a talented student of the Brera Academy of Fine Arts, reflecting the artistic tradition of the neighborhood. The property is completed by a double entrance, enhancing its functionality and versatility.

The south-facing windows ensure good natural light.

The right of way regulating access guarantees the residence the quiet and privacy of an internal home, despite being on one of Brera’s liveliest streets. The renovation introduced features designed for a high level of comfort: underfloor heating with electric mats, induction cooktop, air conditioning, and triple-glazed windows, which also contribute to sound insulation in such a central and vibrant location.

The property is currently operated as a hospitality facility and generates an attractive net annual income.

This is a solution that combines the value of one of Milan’s most recognizable addresses with the possibility to continue an already established business or use it as a residence.

Via Fiori Chiari is one of the most characteristic streets in Brera, the quintessential art district, where art galleries, ateliers, antique dealers, and historic shops coexist with boutiques and Milanese dining spots. Just a few steps away is the Palazzo, home to the Pinacoteca, the Academy of Fine Arts, the Braidense Library, and the Botanical Garden. A short walk leads to Teatro alla Scala, the Fashion Quadrilateral, and Piazza Duomo, as well as Castello Sforzesco and Parco Sempione, the largest park in the city center, perfect for relaxing and outdoor sports.

The Lanza (M2) and Montenapoleone (M3) metro stations are a 7-minute walk away, Moscova (M2) is 9 minutes.

A residence with strong personality, for those who wish to live in Milan’s historic center or invest in an environment rich in history, architectural character, and contemporary comfort.
