In the province of Biella, Piedmont, this distinguished historic residence stands between Milan and Turin, with convenient access to the renowned Alpine resorts of the Aosta Valley, including Gressoney and Saint-Vincent. Set amid gentle hills with far-reaching views across the Elvo Valley, the estate combines privacy, cultural heritage and a setting of exceptional tranquillity.

Protected by the Turin Superintendency for Architectural Heritage and Landscape of Piedmont, it retains original furnishings, evocative 18th-century settings and eclectic interiors designed by architect Chevalley, complemented by a permanent collection of contemporary art. A stone double-flight staircase leads to the veranda and the Sala dei Poeti, an elegant reception hall with French stucco and a richly decorated period stained-glass window. Four themed period salons include a games room, tea room, billiard room and dining room, while a grand marble staircase reaches the refined suites, each with its own bathroom.
