SCHIO - CITY CENTER: A prestigious 600-square-meter Art Nouveau (*Liberty* style) mansion, ideal as an executive residence or as an investment of significant historical and architectural value. The property is spread over several levels and features a large living area, a spacious sleeping area with five bedrooms and four bathrooms, a cellar, seven uncovered parking spaces, and an expansive private garden. Energy Class (projected): G. PRIVATE NEGOTIATION. For information, please call [hidden information].

Located in the heart of Schio’s educational and entrepreneurial history—just 500 meters from the Cathedral—we offer for sale a prestigious Art Nouveau mansion. This was once the home of engineer Silvio De Pretto, a key figure in Schio’s early 20th-century industrial sector, to whom the city has even dedicated a local school.

The residence stands near the ”Vecchio Lavatoio” (Old Washhouse), along the *Roggia Maestra*—an ancient medieval hydraulic canal—within a setting that bears witness to Schio’s transition from an agricultural and artisanal town to a modern industrial city. It is a place steeped in history, where the local landscape, industry, and the environment exist in perfect balance. Key features:
• A distinguished Art Nouveau (Liberty-style) building, featuring original exterior elements
• A staircase made of local stone with original cast-iron supports—forged in the company’s own in-house foundry
• A well-balanced restoration that blends period charm with modern living technologies
• Elegant, bright, and well-proportioned interiors
• A central yet private location, close to the Salesian institute, the “Fusinato” Middle School for Music, the city center, and the bus and train stations

Following the passing of Silvio De Pretto in 1933, the building served as the company’s offices for many years, becoming a landmark for generations of workers—a place where the present and future find fulfillment within the beauty of the past.

Today, the property offers great flexibility: the independent ground floor is suitable for commercial use, as an office, or as a self-contained residential unit; alternatively, it can easily be connected to the two upper floors to create a single, unified residence or a mixed-use space.
A home for those seeking something extraordinary—ideal as a prestigious private residence or as an investment of significant historical and architectural value.

The furnishings highlight the perfect balance between Art Nouveau elegance and the modern feel of the spaces.
