House for sale in Rome (Rome) 3511m² 4 floors

There is no typo! The mansion is really valued at this mind-boggling sum! Almost half a billion... euros. The auction is scheduled for October 2022 The mansion is valued at 471,000,000 euros (officially declared market price) (of which 432,647,692 euros is the cost of works of art) ⠀ the minimum bid to participate in the auction in April 2023 must be in the amount of 109,000,000 euros the minimum price increase during the auction is set at 1 million euros You ask, what could be worth that kind of money? The answer: the only fresco in the world by Caravaggio! and only it is valued by experts at no less than 310 million euros But!!! it cannot be separated from the villa, no matter how hard you try! This event has already been called the sale of the century! ⠀ 'Villa Aurora'... ⠀ You ask, how is this possible in our time? ⠀ It's very simple. The owners of the villa (a private individual) did not even suspect such a treasure. The fresco was discovered completely by accident under a thick layer of plaster only in the 1960s during renovation work. ⠀ The fresco itself was painted by the young Caravaggio presumably in 1597. ⠀ This is not the only value in the villa, but without a doubt the most significant. In addition to it, there are a number of other important works of art, such as Guercino frescoes, paintings, antique statues and much more. ⠀ To call this property simply a villa, of course, does not correspond to reality. ⠀ Considering the huge number of works of art, we can safely classify this mansion as a full-fledged museum with unique and unparalleled works, ⠀ ... moreover, in the very center of Rome! ⠀ This sale is unique and has no analogues. The decision to put Villa Aurora up for auction was made by an Italian court after a long dispute between the heirs of its last owner, Prince Nicola Boncompagni Ludovisi, who passed away in 2018. ⠀ ⠀ What awaits the future owner? A mandatory complete reconstruction of the building, which is estimated by forensic experts at 11 million euros. This condition is spelled out in the terms of purchase, and the amount is deducted from the sale price. But what is 11 million when we are talking about billions? ⠀ The villa has been under the protection of the Italian Ministry of Culture since 1987, which means that the Italian state can intervene in the auction at any time, since it has the first right to purchase. ⠀ The state can intervene at this stage and purchase the villa at its market price, declared at 471 million euros. ⠀ The state will be able to intervene in the future. ⠀ That is, even after the villa is awarded to someone at auction, the state can buy it for the same price and award it to itself. ⠀ At the moment, the Italian State has not shown interest in this villa. The state always has the right to purchase, but the question is, does it have such amounts now? ⠀ The owner herself, Princess Rita, sincerely hopes for this outcome of the case, as she would like to live in the mansion until the end of her days. ⠀ If the government does not find such money and does not intervene, then any private person will be able to purchase the villa. ⠀ There are already rumors in Rome about the interest of one sheikh... ⠀ about the work of Caravaggio itself: ⠀ Why is this work considered unique? Because this is the only fresco ever completed by Caravaggio. He did not create any other frescoes. All his other works were on canvas. ⠀ The three-meter fresco depicts three ancient deities who rule the sky (Jupiter), the sea (Neptune) and the earth (Pluto). The mythological plot itself is also unique. Three Roman gods gathered around a transparent ball, symbolizing ⠀ All three gods are associated with alchemy, as was the first owner of the villa - Cardinal Francesco Maria del Monte. The cardinal asked Caravaggio to paint his small office, which he used as an alchemical laboratory. ⠀ Jupiter symbolizes sulfur and air ⠀ Neptune - mercury and water ⠀ Pluto - salt and earth ⠀ In the center is a translucent globe, which depicts the Sun in orbit around the Earth and the zodiac signs Pisces, Aries, Taurus and Gemini. New twist: January 2023 - after 5 unsuccessful auctions in which no one took part, the heirs took matters into their own hands and decided to act together and independently, and not through a tribunal. They finally managed to come to a common denominator in such a difficult matter and they all signed a mandate to sell the villa privately. With this agreement, unfortunately, the ex-wife of Prince Ludovisi had to be evicted from the palace. Now the villa is empty and is free-floating on the world real estate market. And sooner or later, I am sure, this property will find its buyer, a true connoisseur of art. And we continue to follow further developments.
