Description
In the heart of the Tuscia area, just an hour and a half drive from Rome, Siena and the Argentario and a few minutes from Lake Bolsena, in the municipality of Acquapendente, we offer for sale the Palazzo Viscontini, measuring around 3,000 square meters in size and 2,800 square meters in park.
The building was built in 1582 by Monsignor Antonio Viscontini, abbot of San Martino di Lyon, on a project by Ippolito Scalza, a academic of San Luca, famous architect from the 1500s for having collaborated with the project of the Duomo of Orvieto.
The building is mainly on two levels. On the ground floor, street level, there is a series of large vaulted rooms, used as workshops, cellars and remittance accessible from the street and a charming courtyard, in which there are the coats of arms of the Viscontini, the Farnese and the Lorraine.
An imposing staircase leads to the main floor, on two symmetrical wings separated from a loggia; the floor consists of a series of living rooms, bedrooms with bathrooms, kitchens and various services. The heights of the rooms vary from 7 to 13 meters. Some living rooms are frescoed in "grotesque" of the Zuccari School, using the same workers who had decorated the rooms of Palazzo Farnese in Caprarola. The main living room is (state) frescoed by the Florentine painter Gualtiero de Bacci Come to the end of the 1800s.
From the main floor, through a stone spiral staircase you go up to another portion of the living area and, finally, to the altar with four windows directed on the cardinal points from which there is a magnificent view of the town of Acquapendente and the Viterbo countryside up to Monte Rufeno.
The building, whose roofs and facades were renovated in 2012 was declared a national monument and enjoys preferential taxation by law.
