Casa U Nifamiliare Arqua' Petrarca

In the heart of the Euganean Hills Natural Park, in the highest elevation position of Arquà Petrarca, stands this exclusive property of over 30,000 square meters: a rare place where nature, privacy, history and elegance coexist in perfect harmony.

At over 260 meters above sea level, the estate dominates the landscape with a spectacular 180° panoramic view of the Po Valley, as far as the Apennines and, on clear days, the sea.

A long private access of about 200 meters leads to the property, set in a context of absolute quiet and privacy. The park alternates deciduous woods, panoramic terraces and valuable crops, including 340 olive trees of eight different varieties, producers of an excellent Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and about 70 jujube plants, a symbol of local tradition.

The areas and crops also allow recognition as a Principal Title Agricultural Entrepreneur, with the associated tax and zoning benefits.

The villa, completed in 2011 on the site of an ancient building already present in Napoleonic maps, was built in full compliance with Park regulations, combining architectural authenticity and contemporary technologies.

Noble materials and refined details define every room: exposed local stone facade, wooden beams, reclaimed antique terracotta tiles, outdoor paving in original Venetian stone, brushed larch windows and doors flush with the wall, and a dramatic helical iron and ash staircase with LED-lit glass walkway.

The interiors, about 270 square meters distributed on two levels, offer bright and refined environments:
on the ground floor a large open space with living and dining room, kitchen with peninsula, characteristic Austrian Stube, bathroom with whirlpool shower, laundry room and bedroom/study;
on the upper floor a study with open bookcase, a master suite with walk-in closet and private bathroom, guest bedroom and additional bathroom with corner bathtub.

The property also includes garage and rustic annex of about 90 square meters with supporting structure prepared for a possible extension of equal area.

Equipped with underfloor heating integrated to the Stube, CEE-certified systems, predisposition for photovoltaic and solar, fiber optics, video surveillance and alarm predisposition, the villa guarantees comfort, efficiency and safety.
