Historic Italian villa built and owned by the Gucci family now asks $14.2M for sale

A piece of Gucci history is up for grabs in Rome, and it comes with a price tag of a cool $14.2 million.

This estate, occupying 4,000 square feet, was built in the 1950s by Aldo Gucci, the son of the luxury fashion house’s founder.

Situated just minutes from Rome’s city center, the sprawling property sits on 5 acres of landscaped gardens blending Italian and English architectural styles, according to Luxury Property News.

A private, gated entrance leads to the villa via a winding driveway lined with towering trees, ensuring total seclusion.
