I noticed that someone here would want to know more about this beautiful place. I made my research and I think I'm pretty sure to know where is this place is. I also found some information that someone might find interesting. I will not reveal where this place is located but I'll give you some indications: it's not far from Turin, in the Piemonte region of Italy. The palace was originally built as a castle in the XVII century and was later modified and restored as a villa in the XIX century. The building, the entire household (of 1.000 square meters) and the 70.000 square meters park are on sale at the time I am writing this comment. The place is registered as a "luxury and historic" asset in the Italian register of the real estate assets, so obtaining permits for restoring it might be a nightmare and it would cost a fortune. It really is a shame, but these things may happen: families' richness may fall, and the cost of the mainteinance of a place like this (as well as the taxes) is extremely high. Anyways, if a real estate investment fund acquired this and made this into an hotel, it would make a great service to the history and the cultural heritage of my beautiful country.

I’ve been researching property purchases in Italy. I have been told property tax can fluctuate wildly. Say one year it could be 3% while another year it could be 40%. Have you experienced this? As far as this property, how much $ are they asking?

@migiurtini

@@tedcarl5382 property taxes generally depend on a number of factors: category of the property (e.g. it might be listed as commercial or residential and in either cases you have sub categories which may affect the property tax), municipality where the property is located (some have higher taxes than others), number of properties owned and other issues. It is true that if one of the regulations affecting the calculation of the taxes changes you might have some fluctuation, but I'd not say that there is much of a variation from year to year. In any case, before purchasing a property in Italy I would strongly suggest to approach a good notary public and/or tax consultant beforehead.

Can you imagine how beautiful it must have been when it was new and lived in.

I am curious why the Italian government does not take pride in these amazing historic buildings, and use them for weddings, and Venues for business.. what a shame. Beautiful place!

Yes its beautiful my fathers family from bologna later some left, i must say this is not a castle but it is much more beautiful in design then the plain Bentivoglio castle. It is beautiful!!! I often wonder how many people also suffered as workers to these people who owned such places. We tend to romance this places forgetting how others lived to serve although paid but still much as slaves barely making it, suffering cold weather and still work.

Ian McMurtrie The term 'dumbwaiter' came to be as the lift was first used in large houses that had their kitchens and household staff in the basements or the ‘servants quarters’. These servants would use the lift to take food and dishes upstairs to the dining room and back down again as the go-between from kitchen to restaurant, allowing noise and cooking odour to be isolated from the patrons. The origins of the term are simply that this lift was a way of having your own silent waiter, not seen and not heard.

I’m am amazed by how beautiful it still is but it also breaks my heart that it’s been abandoned. It’s so beautiful. I love to see how people used their hands to make this.

Seeing this place makes me think about writing a novel with this place as the backdrop. All I would need is to go frame by frame looking as I write. Who thinks I need to make our lovely moderator the hero of this castle? I can see him dressed in royal clothes walking regally down the glorious stairs, as the sunlight streams down from the skylight. It sparkling on the marble and highly polished brass casting a halo around him. All the ladies waiting breathless looking up at him from behind their fans. Wow. I can see it all now just like a movie of that affluent era. Thanks again for giving us a glimpse into another time, another era.

Your comments at 2:53 inspired the most obscure and out of character thoughts in me just then. I said to myself aloud, "OR~ Maybe he had an extensive Beanie Baby collection... Each day he'd come into his Beanie-brary and select a small lucky group with whom he would gather around the table for a special tea party. There would be cakes, biscuits-and of course Tea. Not wanting to play favorites, the Lord of the Manor would keep track of his guests in a beautifully hand crafted ledger. It was the only book in the library. Don't get me wrong, I love your explores and deep respect for the people who once were and the belongings that remain. Besides, you're impossibly adorable and I can't ever imagine wanting to be mean or rude to you. I just couldn't help but share this unbelievably ridiculous thought inspired by something as simple as replacing books with cigars.
