Asolo, the City of a hundred horizons, is one of the most evocative historical city centres in Italy, bearing witness to its century-old history in all the sights one can enjoy. In the heart of the city, along the ancient Contrada Santa Caterina (today named Via Canova), there is a stunning historical building that is the result of the union of two 16th century buildings achieved in the late 18th century upon decision of a noble family from Asolo.
The palace develops on multiple levels. The ground floor is characterised by a large round arch while along the portico there are two ancient shops. The mezzanine level includes a studio with a bathroom. On the noble floor, through the central room, elegantly decorated with mid-18th century stuccoes, one can enter a bedroom with en suite bathroom, a living room, another bedroom with en suite bathroom and closet, a second smaller living room, a dining room that houses a fireplace with its original hood and, lastly, the kitchen. The second floor covers the same surface of the lower floor, featuring a ceiling height of 3 metres and remarkable decorations that enhance the building’s architectonic value. On the top floor, the attic – a fascinating wide space – presents itself in an unrefined state, with a fully restored ceiling. From here, the view is simply enchanting.
The building is located on a pathway winding up to the hill, thus the first floor directly overlooks the internal courtyard, leading to the beautiful garden. The external space is built on various terracing levels as it is typical in this region; it is enriched by different tree species planted long ago which make the area a real delight.
The property is sold with an approved restoration project for building three separate housing units (first floor, second floor and third floor) served by a lift with dimensions and characteristics apt for use by disabled people.
