Maison D'époque Indépendante Au Cœur De Milan

This historic independent property, once the residence of the renowned poet Roberto Sanesi, is located in the heart of one of the most prestigious areas of the city, Pagano, known for being one of Milan’s most exclusive and well-served neighborhoods.

It is spread over three levels plus a basement and attic. The property offers spacious and versatile areas, enriched by timeless charm.

The main entrance opens into a large room that leads, on one side, to stairs going to the upper floors and, on the other, to a double living room with a fireplace and dining area.

Continuing from the living room, a few steps lead to a spacious eat-in kitchen that opens directly onto a charming private garden, accessible also from the living room. The kitchen provides access to the basement, currently used as a cellar and laundry room, but with potential to be transformed into a tavern, gym, or other living spaces.

On the first floor, there is a large bedroom, a spacious study, and a bathroom. Ascending to the second floor, two additional rooms used as studies and a third as a small bedroom with a desk complete the layout.

A study provides access, via a spiral staircase, to the attic with Velux windows, ideal as a children’s play area.

Beyond its imposing structure, Villa Sanesi silently bears witness to the life and art of Roberto Sanesi, a poet, art critic, and writer whose works have transcended national borders and are appreciated internationally.

His international stature is also highlighted by thank-you letters sent by the British royal family, attesting to the broad appreciation and deep impact of his translation works for the English-speaking world.

Today, thanks to his wife, much of his literary collection, about 6,000 volumes, is housed at the University of Pavia’s library. Roberto has also been honored with the ”Giardino Di Roberto Sanesi” in Piazza San Marco in the Brera district of Milan.

The direct connection with such a prominent figure in literature and art adds priceless value to this property, making it not just a residence but a true space of cultural inspiration.

The villa, enriched by Sanesi’s memories and art, offers an unparalleled atmosphere that allows daily life in a setting that hosted high-level intellectual and creative gatherings.

The spacious and well-distributed areas allow for flexible use beyond simple living, opening possibilities such as cultural events, art exhibitions, or an inspiring retreat for artists and writers.

The impact of owning such a home, which has witnessed significant moments in the life of an important poet and art critic, cannot be underestimated.

This aspect makes the purchase not only a material investment but also an emotional and spiritual one, offering future owners the opportunity to add a dimension of profound cultural and historical richness to their lives.

Strategically located near Parco Sempione, one of Milan’s largest and most enchanting green lungs, this residence offers easy access to a variety of urban services, including luxury boutiques, renowned restaurants, and cultural institutions, making daily life both comfortable and inspiring.
