Villa, Via Fossa Cieca Massa

Majestic villa immersed in greenery, historically part of the residences owned by the noble Malaspina family.

Access is through an avenue lined with fruit trees, gradually creating an atmosphere of peace and privacy. A large porch marks the entrance, serving as a natural transition space between indoors and outdoors.

The interiors stand out for the generous proportions of the rooms and individual access on each floor. Spread over three levels, it is designed to be lived in by a single family or divided according to needs, with each floor potentially serving as a large apartment.

The unified architectural project, dating back to the 1970s, is an integrated intervention of architecture and interior design, where spaces, materials, and furnishings interact coherently and perfectly balanced. Internal routes, via a wide staircase, are marked by arched passages, architectural screens, niches, and custom cabinetry, maintaining visual continuity throughout.

Furnishing elements include a monumental central fireplace adorned with integrated seating, a perfect centerpiece for social moments. Numerous high-quality wooden windows, typical of tradition and kept in perfect condition, preserve the charm of time. Terracotta floors and period ceramics in the bathrooms emphasize a strong, unique identity.

This extraordinary preservation results in the architectural and functional quality of the entire property, designed to last over time and accommodate contemporary living, offering a rare example of ”Italian designer living” in a romantic yet functional setting.
