Villa Verona
Villa Verona is a building of significant historical and artistic interest, constructed between 1535 and 1789 by a noble Veronese family.
In the early 19th century, it served as the headquarters for Napoleon’s troops, and later hosted Ferdinand I of Bourbon on multiple occasions.
The villa is situated in a valley surrounded by vineyards and orchards between Verona and Lake Garda, with convenient access to major roads. Through the original main gate adorned with the family crest, one enters a beautiful courtyard flanked by a barn dating back to 1650, along with an annex and rustic outbuilding.
On the ground floor of the villa, there is a spacious loggia, vaulted rooms with a magnificent fireplace, a cool cellar, and access to utility rooms.
The first floor features a salon adorned with exquisite frescoes depicting biblical scenes, likely painted by the artist Giovanni Ghirlandini.
The noble floor boasts spacious rooms and corridors, including the master bedrooms. The upper floor offers numerous rooms that could be converted into bedrooms, or the floor could be subdivided into individual residential units.
The entire property is surrounded by vineyards and parks, enhancing its natural charm and historical allure.
