Imagine living in one of Milan's most exclusive residences, Casa Feltrinelli, an icon of elegance that dialogues harmoniously with the surrounding urban context.
Casa Feltrinelli, an authentic masterpiece of Italian rationalism, stands in a privileged position between Piazza della Repubblica and the Porta Venezia Gardens. This extraordinary project was born from the audacious vision of Dr. Antonio Feltrinelli who, in the 1930s, thought of creating something unique and unprecedented, a multi-storey residential building that would redefine the housing standards of the time.
Situated on the sixth floor of Casa Feltrinelli, this flat tells a story of timeless elegance and charm, combining panoramic views of the greenery with the liveliness of the urban context in which it is set. The height guarantees a peaceful atmosphere, allowing one to fully experience the beauty of Milan. Thanks to its double entrance, its spaciousness and the total absence of load-bearing walls, the flat offers ample possibilities for customisation, allowing you to rethink the spaces according to your needs. Every detail of the property has been carefully planned, from the choice of marble for the surfaces to the windows that allow natural light to be fully enjoyed. The materials used, such as Botticino marble, pink granite and the wood of the elegant parquet floors, add a note of historicity that recalls the rationalist era in which the building was designed.
Upon entering the property, one is greeted by a large entrance hall, which leads to the living area. Here we find the main living room, lit by a large window, which offers an incomparable view of Milan, framing the city and transforming it into a work of art. Adjacent to the living room, we find a room currently used as a kitchen and a second kitchen with a vintage flavour, with a chequered floor and a small balcony overlooking the interior. The sleeping area hosts four spacious bedrooms, three of which overlook Via Daniele Manin and Giardino Idro Montanelli, and four bathrooms. Three hallways, two storage rooms and a practical pantry complete this area.
The property also has a cellar and a double garage with access via an automatic bridge.
Casa Feltrinelli
Casa Feltrinelli represented the city's drive towards the future, combining stone and glass in an innovative and modern style. The building, imposing and refined, embodied the architectural vision of a Milan that embraced change without giving up its charm.
From the very beginning, it stood out for its strategic location and the innovative vision of architects Alberico and Ludovico Barbiano di Belgiojoso, along with the fame of its founder. The avant-garde design of the building's façades, clad in fine dark Botticino marble from Mazzano and pink granite from Baveno, reflect the continuity between history and the contemporary. Recurring horizontal lines frame the large windows, visually connecting the bright interiors to the outdoor spaces, while the panoramic veranda on the east front overlooks the Giardini di Porta Venezia, offering a visual dialogue between the building and its urban context.
Today, Casa Feltrinelli combines the charm of historic residences with the functionality of contemporary buildings, creating a link between past and present and continuing to be an icon in the Milanese panorama.
