Historic Villa in the Lombardy Region
Considered the crown jewel of Bossa Valley, Villa Bossi-Zampolli is set near Varese in the Alpine foothills north of Milan.
Located 10 minutes from the centre of the city, the villa offers panoramic views over the lake and city below.
Nestled in a manicured 12 acre park which is listed with the local cultural heritage office, the grand residence is surrounded by ancient Italian gardens, statues, and charming pathways, and the estate includes a Borgo, Guardiole, and a chapel.
Dating back to the late medieval period, the property was built onto the site of the former castle of Azzate and was owned by the local noble Bossi family from 1290 until 1810 when it was sold, and eventually passed to the Zampolli family who own the property today.
The villa boasts a wealth of period detail throughout, with richly ornamented state halls and grand formal rooms with beautiful frescoes, Venetian terracotta tiles, and inlaid parquet floors.
Spread generously across 3 levels, the 75,000+ square foot villa offers 20 bedrooms and 20 bathrooms, making it an ideal property for a wedding and events venue.
Sold as a private residence, the palatial villa has tremendous potential to be converted into a luxurious retreat, just a short drive to Milan and the Italian lakes.
