This wholly renovated rustic house is in an area of 30,750 sqm, in a protected natural park, deep in the nature of the Euganean Hills, in the upmarket medieval village of Arquà Petrarca. The area is partly covered by woodland, partly by typical terraces with over a hundred jujube trees and 340 olive trees of 8 different varieties that make one obtain extra virgin olive oil of premium quality. Through a private road, crossing a gate, one enters the property that lays in total silence and privacy. The view is unique and breathtaking, with a privileged 180° view of the Po Valley from above. The rustic house presents itself as a typical local dwelling: the stones of the pre-existing ruin were used to carry out the façade, the roof and the internal side of the porch were created with wooden beams and original terracotta tiles, while the external paving with early stone from a square in Venice. The property spreads over two levels for a surface of approx. 250 square metres, and consists on the ground floor of a porch from which you enter into a sizeable open space with a living room, a dining room with an Austrian stube fireplace, a kitchen, a laundry, and a study/bedroom. Going up, by a modern spiral iron staircase, we reach the upper area, paved with planed and hand-brushed oak, where additional open space is; it comprises a study, a library, a master bedroom with an en suite bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe, a second double bedroom, a bathroom with a corner Jacuzzi. An above-ground garage of about 100 sqm, a cellar and a storage room add additional value to the property. One can also get a significant possibility of enlargement with the construction of a flat of 60 sqm and the carrying out of a magnificent infinity pool.

Location: Arquà Petrarca, Veneto

Perhaps the same atmosphere of serene romanticism that still lingers in Arquà Petrarca made Petrarch fall in love with this well-preserved medieval village, where one can feel the sentimental tranquillity of the Euganean Hills amongst palaces and elegant villas. In 1370 Petrarch arrived in this small town and was so enchanted by the beauty of its environment that he decided to take up residence here, in a house surrounded by greenery. Tradition says he was given it by Francesco da Carrara, lord of Padua. Arquà has a much more ancient history, however. In the lake with the same name, not far from the town, pile-dwelling finds have been discovered, proving the existence of a settlement in prehistoric times. Perhaps one of the oldest in the entire Euganean area. A site of exceptional value included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. At present, this little 14th-century gem is still a place where one can stroll, in silence, along cobbled streets, under airy porticoes, and admire the fine architecture, including numerous small typical Venetian style buildings. Arquà Petrarca is an enormous historical heritage that in recent decades has been recovered and enhanced, so much so that today Arquà Petrarca is listed in the club of the "Most Beautiful Villages in Italy".
