Historical Building For Sale In The Centre Of Brescia

In Brescia's town centre, there is a magnificent 15th-century palace for sale, which has undergone a complete renovation. The building, rich in history and luxury, houses 33 apartments, a shop and a restaurant, and measures 3,200 sqm overall.

This majestic estate dates back to the 1400s and is located in a quiet and reserved area of the ancient town centre, along a road which in the 12th century became an important communication artery, connecting Bordeaux, Milan, Aquileia, Byzantium and Jerusalem, becoming almost obligatory for the Holy Land. The history of this building even begins with the return of the Templars, around the year 1200, after the wars in Jerusalem; the entire complex originally consisted of a large Franciscan convent which occupied the entire block.

In the 1900s, this impressive building underwent a significant and painstaking total renovation, which skilfully preserved its historical value, highlighting its fine original details. The building has been divided into 20 two-room apartments and 13 studio apartments, as well as a 650-sqm restaurant, a 220-sqm shop and a beautiful and spacious internal courtyard. This luxurious palace, still today, has numerous historical elements and features of considerable importance, keeping its ancient charm intact. The structure is in excellent condition, with the exteriors and the copper roof well cared for, while inside the stairs and all the floors are adorned with precious and well-preserved marble, including the staircase leading to the upper floors.

The location of the property is strategic, as it is close to the most important places in Brescia, including Piazza della Loggia, the seat of Brescia's town hall, the Old Cathedral also known as "la Rotonda", and the Castle of Brescia, a fortress dating back to medieval times, majestically perched on the Cidneo hill.

Given its central position, the historical features and the charm that surround it, the building lends itself perfectly to being used as an accommodation facility and represents an excellent investment.
