Passive House penthouse - a villa surrounded by greenery
In the heart of Fidenza, we present a prestigious contemporary penthouse within an exclusive development of just ten residences. The building represents the pinnacle of progressive architecture and holds Passive House certification - one of Europe's most rigorous standards for energy efficiency, comfort, and quality of living. Designed to maintain a naturally comfortable climate year-round with near-zero energy consumption, the property benefits from high-performance insulation, advanced glazing, and mechanical ventilation that continuously circulates fresh, filtered air, removing dust and outdoor pollutants.
The penthouse is arranged over two levels. On the lower floor, the living area and kitchen open through expansive glass windows onto lush greenery and generous balconies. This level also includes two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a walk-in wardrobe. The upper floor features a large, versatile space ideal as a master suite, private study, or self-contained flat, with provision for a second kitchen, alongside a bathroom, ironing room, and store room. This floor can be accessed via a private entrance to function entirely independently.
The crowning glory of the property is its expansive roof terraces with landscaped gardens, equipped with automated irrigation and pre-installation for a hot tub - a true green oasis offering total privacy. The residence is completed by a utility room with a shower, an additional store room, a double garage, and a cellar.
This is a home where architecture, technology, and nature converge to offer extraordinary comfort, exceptional security standards, and remarkably low running costs. The overall feel is that of a private villa suspended amidst greenery, right in the heart of town.
Location
Historically a vital hub within the Po Valley, modern-day Fidenza remains a strategic geographical gateway between Milan and Bologna, perfectly positioned between the vibrant regions of Emilia-Romagna, Lombardy, and Tuscany. Located close to the motorway junction is Fidenza Village, one of Europe's largest and most renowned luxury shopping outlets, while numerous thriving industries and major international companies have chosen to establish their headquarters in the area. Architecturally, the town's most historically significant landmark is its Romanesque cathedral, built between the 12th and 13th centuries along the historic Via Francigena pilgrimage route. Dedicated to Saint Donnino, legend has it that it was erected on the exact spot where the saint fell. Yet Fidenza offers far more than history and shopping: it is an integral part of Italy's famous 'Food Valley', boasting one of the highest concentrations of protected regional delicacies in the country. The area's unrivalled culinary excellence continues to attract food enthusiasts from around the globe.
