Historic estate with swimming pool and tennis court near Rome for saleIn the picturesque countryside northwest of Rome, near Olgiata, a historic 17th-century estate, surrounded by 40 hectares of private land, is for sale. The noble architecture, gardens by Russell Page, and the beauty of the Roman landscape create a rare, harmonious setting for secluded living close to the capital. The history of this area dates back to the Etruscan and Roman eras and is associated with influential aristocratic families, including the Medici. Retaining the character of a historic country residence, the estate captivates with the restrained expressiveness of its façades, the grandeur of its interior spaces, and its careful connection with the surrounding nature.
