Description
CASA PORTA SANGUINARIA
Ref: 033
A striking blend of modern innovation and tradition, Casa Porta Sanguinaria is a beautifully restored modern home incorporating an ancient Cistercian church. A study in contrasts, where a modern steel mezzanine appears to hover below an ancient stone vault; where discreet doors open onto grand entertaining spaces; where a comfortable family home and an impressive architectural renovation coexist.
The main entrance is an elegant but unobtrusive iron grill just beyond the old town gates, beyond which is an entirely private world, with indoor and outdoor areas, home comforts and grandeur.
Stairs curve up to the main level, where there is the intimate heart of the house: a living room with wood crossbeam ceiling, stone fireplace and valley views, a large study or library with generous antechamber, and striking green glass doors opening into a huge terracotta flagged kitchen with fireplace. The doors are designed to swivel easily, creating as needed a privacy screen or an open connection to the living area. This area also has a service bathroom.
From the living room, striking steel and glass doors make a feature decoration when closed, and open to reveal the stunning restoration of the original Cistercian church. A mezzanine level floats below the ancient stone vaults, elegantly laid with parquet, and with feature lighting highlighting the arches above. Various original niches and an antique door have been carefully restored and incorporated into the design. There is also direct external access to this area through the antique door.
A flight of broad stone steps leads down to the lower level, where there is a second large entertaining area, as well as a small suite consisting of a room and a bathroom.
Stairs lead from the main living area to the upper floor, where there are two bedrooms and a further bathroom. One bedroom, with sweeping valley views, has its own external door into a small courtyard shared with the neighbouring building, and thence to the street. The other bedroom has its own large dressing room, which gives onto the generous roof terrace, with views across the old town and over the valley.
A side door from the entrance courtyard reveals a further room and bathroom.
