Villa with Pool in Olgiata, Rome, to Renovate: Seven Suites and Park

Villa with pool in Olgiata, to be renovated. The images in this listing are renderings: they show how the villa could look after renovation, not its current condition.

Villa with pool in Olgiata, north Rome: a detached villa for sale in a commanding position, looking out over the fairways of the Golf Club. The villa stands in a wooded park of more than 3,500 sq m and is arranged over three levels. The layout favours the ground floor: seven suites, ten bathrooms in all, generous reception rooms, self-contained staff quarters and garaging for several cars.

The architecture and layout of the rooms are set out in the description that follows; the works concern the finishes. The asking price refers to the villa in its current condition: renovation works are not included.

The approach

A stone-paved drive, framed by centuries-old oaks and ornamental planting, leads to a wide forecourt and to the ramp down to the garage of this villa in Olgiata. Beyond the main door, a double-height hall opens into the house. The hall also clearly separates the reception wing from the suites.

The living area

The living area of this villa in Olgiata opens onto a triple reception room of about 95 sq m, with exposed timber beams and a period fireplace in pietra serena stone. In addition, wide arched sliding windows frame the pool and the park. Next to the reception room is a library and study with a fireplace.

The formal dining room, designed for large gatherings, connects both to a winter veranda overlooking the garden and to the kitchen. The kitchen is large enough to eat in, with a large central island and a separate pantry. It also has its own entrance at the front of the house and a door to the outdoor barbecue area. Finally, a guest cloakroom and a concealed dressing gallery complete the floor.

The ground-floor suites

The ground-floor bedroom wing is reached along a corridor overlooking the inner garden. It holds six suites, each with a marble bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe. In addition, two of the suites share a private sitting room, well suited to guests or older children.

The principal suite on the first floor

A spiral staircase in travertine rises to the first floor, which is given over entirely to the principal suite. The bedroom has arched French windows onto a private terrace with views across the golf course. The suite also has two en-suite bathrooms and two separate dressing rooms.

The lower ground floor: wellness area, staff quarters and garage

The lower ground floor of this villa with pool in Olgiata extends to about 420 sq m, with a ceiling height of 2.80 m and generous ventilated cavities. Here there is a wellness area with sauna, steam room and fully equipped gym, a wine cellar and a cinema and entertaining room with a second fireplace.

On the same level there is also a self-contained flat for domestic staff, with a sitting room and kitchenette, two bedrooms and a bathroom. Then come the laundry, the plant rooms and direct access to the covered garage of more than 220 sq m. The garage takes up to six cars, as well as golf buggies.

The park and pool of the villa in Olgiata

Outside, a lawned garden surrounds a heated infinity pool of 8 × 16 metres, finished in mosaic. Around the pool are a teak and travertine sun deck and a pool house with changing room and showers. Finally, a covered loggia is fitted with a masonry summer kitchen and a wood-fired oven.
