Overall Property Description: Apartment (80 m2) in the ancient castle of Lispida, whose origins date back to 1153. First built as a monastery it was subsequently destroyed and rebuilt and eventually became the property of the Venetian Republic. During the first World war it was the residence of Vittorio Emanuele, the king of Italy and currently it is the centre piece of an important wine producing estate. Its position at the foot of the Eugeanean hills makes it ideal for excursions to the surrounding villages. The apartment is at the entrance to the castle, it benefits from peace and quiet and has beautiful views over the park and the countryside. In an ancient greenhouse a swimming pool (12.5x4) (22/4-15/10) has been built with a jacuzzi area and counter-current swimming, in common with the Castle; children younger than 6 years old are not allowed. Private and equipped garden. Weddings and conventions are occasionally organised on the property. Parking.
