Luxury homes in milan

"More than the trend of the luxury real estate market, which fortunately has remained almost stable, the needs and purchasing habits of individual customers have recently changed".

Thus begins Angelo Acquafresca, Manager for the Monza, Milan and Brianza area of ​​the "Casa & Style" certified Luxforsale real estate agency, in a recent interview published on the portal dedicated to luxury homes listings Luxforsale.it.

As Acquafresca, an expert in real estate sales in the sector, pointed out, due to the recent pandemic, customers are looking for purchasing solutions that, in addition to luxury and comfort, also have other characteristics. For example, more outdoor spaces, areas for smart working, family-friendly services.

In some cities like Milan, the requests differ from the past: if before we aimed to buy a luxury home in the center, today we tend to live in the suburbs or residential areas, where the quality of life is much better.

Choosing to live in a metropolis like Milan involves a series of consequences that must be taken into consideration. It is also necessary to obtain a map of the city to know the various areas with their respective characteristics and in individual details. Alternatively, it is better to rely on the guidance and advice of a real estate expert who will be able to provide some "tips" on the most suitable solutions in the city.

Notes on Milan

Milan, the lively and dynamic capital of Lombardy, is the metropolis that satisfies everyone's tastes and needs. There are many young people who decide to live permanently in the Milanese city, but equally conspicuous is the number of professionals who, at a certain point in their career, take up new professional paths by focusing on Milan.

This city is different from all the others in Italy and in Europe, because both traces of the past and the most modern and innovative buildings from an architectural point of view coexist in a harmonious way.

It starts from the Duomo, which is the undisputed symbol of Milan. The famous "Madonnina" is located on the Cathedral, which protects all the residents of the city from above. From the terraces of the Duomo, reachable by an elevator, you can admire a breathtaking panorama. The interior of the Cathedral is also worth a visit, especially for the presence of splendid polychromatic windows.

The second most important church (after the Duomo) in Milan is the Basilica of Sant’Ambrogio, of evident Romanesque style, erected in honor of the Patron Saint. The feast of Sant'Ambrogio is held every year on 7 December.

Residents and tourists know the Salotto di Milano, the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele which connects Piazza Duomo to that of the Scala. Here you can find most of the luxury shops in Milan, the best known and most appreciated especially in the fashion world.

Another symbol of the city is the Castello Sforzesco, built in the fifteenth century by the Duke of Milan Francesco Sforza. The building overlooks Parco Sempione, which follows the style of British gardens. Inside the castle there are libraries and museums.

One of the most prestigious theaters in Italy and in the world is La Scala, where numerous concerts, operas and ballets are held with internationally famous artists and musicians.

A very suggestive area of ​​Milan is the so-called dei Navigli and the Darsena, where most of the Milanese nightlife is concentrated (along the banks of the Naviglio Pavese and the Naviglio Grande there are in fact numerous clubs). The Darsena, on the other hand, is the starting point for cruises that take place on the Navigli.

Among the most modern and innovative districts of Milan there is certainly Porta Nuova, which includes the Business Center (which runs from Porta Garibaldi Station to the new Palazzo Lombardia in Via Melchiorre Gioia). In this area there are newly built buildings such as the Unicredit tower (which is the tallest skyscraper in Italy), the Vertical Forest and the Unicredit Pavillon.

Milan is the business model city at an international level: the Milan Fair complex is at the forefront all over the world.

A bit of history

After a long period of Roman domination, the city of Milan was led by the Visconti family starting from 1300. This noble family was then replaced by the Sforza family. During the period of the duchy Sforza, Milan experienced the most glorious moment in its history. And in fact, as proof of this, there is the fact that the Milan Cathedral was built in 1386.
