Cittadella, the spaces, the garden, the tranquillity

Cittadella, Padua. A few minutes from the famous walls of Cittadella and the Walkway of Ronda, famous all over the world, but also from the other treasures of the historic city center such as the Cathedral Museum, the Praetorian Palace, the Social Theater or the Savior’s Oratory, we find a large and rationally arranged portion of a semi-detached house which can in fact be considered an independent unit in all respects.

The area is close to the centre, surrounded by greenery and very quiet, but at the same time within walking distance of services. The structure in question is accessible through a private gate, which leads to more than 1,300 square metres of exclusive property, totally fenced and planted with fine trees, which embraces the entire structure on three sides, dividing it from the surrounding fields, while the fourth side, which is to the north, touches an adjacent but in fact totally independent property.

The house was built in the late 1980s but has been frequently and carefully maintained, so it is in perfect condition and ready to be lived in. The ground floor, which offers multiple exits to the garden, has a surface area of over 100 square metres of floor space and is currently used as an entrance hall, with large multipurpose areas that are perfectly finished and can be used for multiple purposes, considerably increasing the usable space of the house.

A staircase leads us to the cellar, in the basement, ideal for storing the area’s famous wines, sausages and cheeses, while a comfortable, wide staircase takes us to the first floor, where the flat proper is located.

With a usable surface area of approximately 110sq.m., three very large bedrooms like you don’t see any more, a princely living room, a kitchen that can accommodate eight people and two bathrooms, this piano nobile is completed by a beautiful south-facing balcony that allows a view over the entire garden and the surrounding fields. The flat is finished with fine materials, quality marble and wood, and is as good as new.

Returning to the ground floor, from the entrance we have access to a first garage on the street front of the property, which can easily accommodate two cars, while on the opposite side of the house there is a second garage, also of ample size, used as a shelter for garden tools, outdoor games and furniture that are stored during the bad season.

But let us come to the jewel in the crown of the house, namely the more than 1,300 square metres of entirely south-facing garden that surround it. A perfectly flat lawn, interspersed with beautiful productive trees and entirely enclosed by a wall and a fence that make it an ideal safe haven for children and exuberant dogs, as well as an ideal site for inviting friends and relatives for memorable barbecues and football games, safe from disturbing the neighbours.
