In the heart of Milan, just ten minutes from the main landmarks and perfectly equidistant from Castello Sforzesco, the Duomo and Università Cattolica, this exceptional 274 sqm residence, complemented by over 26 sqm of garden space, a 28 sqm balcony and a spacious 28 sqm garage, unfolds across three levels connected by an internal lift and a design staircase.

Originally an ancient carpentry workshop built on the walls of the Roman circus, the property still preserves sections of the original masonry in the living room and dining area. Converted into a residence in 2007 and renovated in 2017 by the Paris-based studio Asphalt Architecture, the home is furnished with historic pieces from a noble German family, including a 20th-century Carrara marble bust and a table crafted from a Merovingian column transformed into a sundial, alongside contemporary artworks by Domenico Marranchino and Corbassière.

The interiors are enhanced by outstanding Italian materials: a Dada kitchen with Carrara marble countertops and backsplash, Antonio Lupi Corian bathtubs and sinks, Mutina tiles in chevron and matte square patterns, and Fornasetti wallpaper for Cole & Son. The property features double glazing, air conditioning in all rooms, large windows and exposed beams. The heating and cooling system is hybrid, combining a Daikin heat pump and a Viessmann gas boiler, using water as a thermal medium to distribute warmth in winter and cooling in summer. Each room is equipped with an independent thermostat connected to fan coils. Security is ensured by a perimeter alarm system with GPS and video surveillance, fully manageable remotely via home automation. The audio system includes six cinema points with projector and sound diffusion throughout all rooms, controllable via smartphone through a built-in EOS system.

The ground floor hosts the living area with a double sofa bed, burgundy leather armchairs, early 20th-century French armchairs, a chaise longue and a TV area, along with a guest bathroom and a double bedroom featuring a bookcase, a three-door wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom. The basement level includes a bedroom with a double sofa bed, en-suite bathroom and laundry room, as well as a cinema room with projector and a sauna. On the first floor, the master bedroom features an en-suite bathroom with both bathtub and shower, a dining room for eight people, and a veranda kitchen with a table for two and a bar counter, in addition to a small internal garden with an olive tree.

The location is highly prestigious, set in the characteristic Cinque Vie district, well connected to the entire city, with M1 and M3 metro lines nearby.
