Villa Bolsenda it’s a charming country house with swimming pool in the first hills of the Apennines (155 meters of altitude), at less than 50 km from Tuscany, lying on a fraction of the land that belonged to the Marchionness Violante Beccadelli, bordering the splendid Tizzano wine estate of the Visconti di Modrone Counts, heirs of the noble Marescalchi Bolognese family. The property consists of a two storey villa with a living area of 400 square meters, accompanied by two outbuildings, and a green area of approximately 14.000 square meters. Far from road traffic and residential areas, Villa Bolsenda is characterized by privacy and tranquillity. Surrounded by large variety of trees, it faces the south side on a beautiful flat lawn. The villa is divided into two housing units of equal surface (200 square meters each). In the first unit, on the ground floor there is the entrance hall, a large dining and living room with a wonderful fireplace, a kitchen, a storage room and a bathroom. On the first floor there are four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a small laundry room. All the bathrooms are decorated with marble, the ones in the night area are en-suite and the one in the main bedroom also has a Jacuzzi tub, in addition to the shower. In the second unit, on the ground floor there is the entrance hall, a large dining and living room with a Swedish stove, a kitchen, a bathroom and a storage room. On the first floor there are four bedrooms, a bathroom and a small storage room. It’s possible to ask to the municipal authority to unify the two units (in this case you would have a living room 20 meters long and 5 meters wide) and permission can also be requested to restore two external residential units according to the volumes of the two outbuildings. On the third top floor there is a garret, currently in its raw state. Taking advantage of one of the periodic house plans of the municipality it would be possible to build an attic of about 200 square meters, slightly raising the roof and restoring it in a gorgeous attic. The house is completed by a large cellar in the basement (where there is a third kitchen, technical rooms, several closets and a small gym) and an external underground cellar, perfect for storing wine and food. The green decoration deserves a detailed description for the beauty and variety of plants and trees species. The swimming pool area is surrounded by many bamboo species that guarantee total privacy. Villa Bolsenda is visited by many little wild animals: squirrels, roe deers, hares, pheasants, hedgehogs, turtledoves and many more, that make regular visits and that can be observed when you relax under the porch, in the garden or in the pool area. Everything we said would suggest that Villa Bolsenda is in a remote place. Quite the contrary: the historic center of the beautiful city of Bologna is only 11 kilometers away. At 3 kilometers there is the center of Casalecchio di Reno. Villa Bolsenda is in a strategic position to reach the Fair District (14 kilometers), the University (13 kilometers), Bologna International airport (11 kilometers), Bologna Central train station (12 kilometers), as well as excellent restaurants and pizzerias, supermarkets, shopping malls, pharmacies, hospitals with first aid and all the other city services. As for the ways of communication, its position is privileged, very close to the motorway junctions (3 kilometers to the southbound one and 5 kilometers to the northbound one), to the Casalecchio train station (4 kilometers), whose railway line functions as a surface metro, allowing you to reach the center of Bologna in about 15 minutes. And let's not forget that Bologna is in a central position between Venice and Florence. Villa Bolsenda is a unique property which combines the peace of a country house on the hills with the comforts of the city services. It is a wonderful private residential villa but also perfect for an investment as an accommodation facility, restaurant with few rooms, a perfect place for events. The second unit in recent years has been rented as a holiday home, hosting both holidaymakers and business travelers, dozen of enthusiastic reviews confirm the commercial potential of the structure. In the area it is no longer possible to build new properties and to have a villa with two outdoor units and an attic that can be rebuilt or renovated, it is truly a rare and unique opportunity. The property offers at interested buyers one night stay at Villa Bolsenda and a dinner to personally understand the potential and all the benefits of this investment. The owners are also available for guided tours and to provide any other information on the property.
