Torre DI Gazone Restored Historic Residence With Tower, Mill, And Barn

Historic residence nestled in the greenery of the hills near Bologna

On Via Cassola, in the heart of Monteveglio, stands the prestigious Torre di Gazone, a unique historic residence surrounded by approximately 6,000 square meters of private garden, a place that encapsulates the charm of period architecture, expertly restored to combine the elegance of the past with contemporary comfort.

The property consists of a main residence with a tower, an ancient ruined mill, and a barn. The main building spans three levels, served by an elevator and an internal staircase, with an overall surface area of great architectural prestige and historical value. On the ground floor (approximately 240 sqm) opens a large museum hall, characterized by original Roman cobblestone flooring and two perfectly preserved ancient wells. Completing the floor are a historic kitchen and a large entrance hall that connects the staircase and the elevator. The first floor houses two independent residential units:
- a two-room apartment of about 70 sqm, with the bedroom crafted within the tower, of authentic charm;
- a noble apartment of about 190 sqm, with a representative hall decorated with original crests, two double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, and a habitable kitchen.
On the second floor, there is a more contemporary-style attic, with entirely parquet flooring and direct access to the top of the tower, once a lookout point, now an extraordinary belvedere with a view of the hills.
The restoration, completed in 2017, has preserved the historical essence of the property, enhancing every original detail.
Outside, river stones and ancient bricks were reused, while for the interiors, wooden beams from historic Tuscan farmhouses were employed.
Each unit has independent systems and underfloor heating, ensuring comfort and independence.
A timeless residence, perfect for those wishing to live or invest in an exclusive context where history blends harmoniously and elegantly with the present.

The Tower of Gazone rises on via Cassola, in the territory of Monteveglio, one of the most charming locations in the Bolognese hills, nestled in a landscape of great natural and historical value. The area is an integral part of the Monteveglio Abbey Regional Park, a protected area where vineyards, woods, and gentle slopes offer breathtaking panoramic views. The setting is that of the most authentic Emilia: quiet, reserved, yet profoundly vital, rich in tradition and culture. The property’s location is strategic for those who wish to live in an oasis of tranquility, as well as for those seeking a convenient connection point to the main cities of Emilia-Romagna: - Bologna can be reached in about 30 minutes by car, - Modena is just 35 minutes away, - Bazzano and its services (train station, supermarkets, shops, schools) are 10 minutes away. In a few minutes, you can also reach the Pedemontana and the new Variante di Valsamoggia, which quickly connect the area with the highway network. The Tower is also located in a territory of strong eno-gastronomic value: nearby are wineries, farmhouses, and typical restaurants where you can taste local products. The area is also ideal for those who love outdoor life: the Abbey Park offers hiking trails, cycling routes, and nature itineraries, in addition to the charm of the ancient Abbey of Santa Maria di Monteveglio, dating back to the 11th century and still a destination for visits and cultural events. Despite the tranquility and old-world atmosphere, the Tower of Gazone is well connected and perfectly integrated into the territorial fabric: a place where history meets nature, without sacrificing comfort and proximity to the main urban centers.
