"Corte Certosina" is a charming complex, one-of-a-kind piece, located along a picturesque stretch of the Naviglio Grande.
The history of "Corte Certosina" is fascinating. Founded by the Carthusian Monks around 1130, this building has maintained its original structure over time as a "grangia", a convent and farm connected to the Certosa di Pavia.
Later, between 1800 and 1900, it has been the residence of generations of mayors of the current owner's family, as recalled by a plaque at the entrance.
The complex extends in a plot of about 5,000 square meters, and has a square plan with a large central courtyard, with a beautiful entrance with granite columns and a porch, a side courtyard and a charming secular garden.
"Corte Certosina" includes 26 apartments of various sizes, some already renovated and others to be restored, as well as fully renovated shops.
The structure is spread over two floors, with an attic in the main part (South wing) and offers ample possibilities for any use and customization. Therefore:
South wing: the main house, to be renovated, of approximately 520 sqm (Ground floor 320 sqm + 1st floor 200 sqm + an attic that can be stacked as residential), with a centuries-old garden of approximately 1,500 sqm.
This portion preserves original materials, coffered ceilings, large rooms and a fresco.
North Wing: on the ground floor there are three commercial establishments, two of which - a 165 sqm fine restaurant and a 127 sqm "pizzeria" - are rented through rental agreements signed in 2023 and 2022 respectively (and therefore with incomes) and a third one of 38 sq m is currently vacant but already object of interest. On the upper floors, 6/8 apartments still to be renovated for a total of 353 sqm (+ the common parts).
West Wing: it comprises 12 apartments for a total of 616 sqm (+ the common parts) on two floors, apartments renovated at different times and overlooking the main courtyard and the secondary courtyard.
