The five children of Silvio Berlusconi have decided to put up for sale at least part of the many real estate properties of the Cavaliere, who died last June 12th. For this reason, a sales mandate was given which concerns, for example, Villa Gernetto, the eighteenth-century structure near Lesmo, in Brianza, where the Cavaliere wanted to open his university of free thought, which is owned by Fininvest. No intention to put Villa San Martino in Arcore up for sale. While on the list there would also be the fabulous Villa Certosa in Porto Rotondo, estimated at between 250 and 300 million euros, owned by Idra (one of the real estate companies that refer to the Dolcedrago holding, which owns most of the buildings).
«Our father», Marina Berlusconi said in the interview with Bruno Vespa published in his latest book “Il rancor e la Speranza”, «loved life, the light, the comings and goings of people. Villa San Martino must remain like this, alive: we want it to remain the venue for work meetings, as well as, naturally, the meeting point for our family. It's what he would have wanted." In short: Arcore is a fixed point.
There's a lot more going on on the market. In addition to Villa Certosa, Villa Grande in Rome is also located in Idra, while Essebi Real Estate is home to Villa La Lampara in Cannes.
Fininvest directly owns, in addition to Villa Gernetto, the building in via Paleocapa in Milan, where the company's headquarters are located, and the land in Costa Turchese, near Olbia.
Then there are properties that belonged directly to Silvio Berlusconi, such as Villa Campari in Lesa, on Lake Maggiore, that of Antigua, Villa Due Palme in Lampedusa, and over one hundred apartments in Milan.
