Engel & Völkers Parma - Historic properties for sale

Villa Micheli-Mariotti is a historic property dating back to the late 18th century. The complex was originally part of an agricultural estate, where harvests were stored in large cellars beneath the villa and garden. The property includes two main outdoor areas: a paved courtyard with lawn sections at the entrance, and a fully landscaped garden on the opposite side of the building.

Situated within the medieval borgo of Castell'Arquato, Casa Illica is a residence of profound cultural heritage. This Art Nouveau estate is the birthplace of Luigi Illica (1857–1919), the preeminent librettist whose collaborations with Giacomo Puccini produced the operatic masterpieces La Bohème, Tosca, and Madama Butterfly.

The property is situated in the hills of the Matilda Lands, an area with a long history of castles, parish churches, and medieval villages, and is associated with Matilda of Canossa. In the autumn of 1092, the clash between Matilda’s troops and those of Henry IV took place nearby.

This period residence, built in 1911, is located in Luzzara on the Emilian plain, surrounded by waterways and fields in a peaceful rural setting. The building follows a classical layout, with a large central hall as its focal point, around which the rooms are arranged in a natural balance between representational and residential spaces.

Immersed in the silence of the Emilian plain, just minutes from Piacenza, stands the Castle of Muradello, an elegant noble residence dating back to the 15th century.
