Apartment On Via Donizetti With Private Garage - A Masterpiece By Gio Ponti

Christie's International Real Estate - Milan Exclusive is proud to present an exclusive, refined apartment located on Via Donizetti, one of the most elegant streets in central Milan, just a short walk from the Quadrilatero della Moda, the city's renowned fashion district. The apartment is set within a 1960s building designed by Gio Ponti, one of the most important and influential Italian architects, designers and essayists of the 20th century. Reflecting Ponti's distinctive style, the building features a striking modular three-dimensional ceramic façade, with a raised geometric texture that creates captivating plays of light and depth. The disciplined composition of the openings, with recessed loggias and sleek linear metal balustrades, defines a timeless architectural language. The entrance to the building is enhanced by a significant work by Lucio Fontana. Located on the third floor, the property enjoys triple exposure and exceptional natural light, with ceiling heights of 3.10 metres. Access is provided directly by a private lift opening into the apartment, in addition to a second entrance via the communal areas. Faithful to Gio Ponti's original layout, the interior has undergone a complete renovation by a renowned Milanese architecture firm, following a conservation-led approach that preserves the property's architectural integrity. The apartment comprises a spacious living and dining area, three bedrooms, three bathrooms with windows, a laundry room and a generous terrace. The principal reception area overlooks beautifully landscaped, planted internal gardens, offering absolute privacy and tranquillity in the heart of the city. Large-format Calacatta marble-effect floor slabs, featuring pronounced veining and a continuous layout, further enhance the sense of space. Every detail has been crafted using the finest materials and bespoke artisanal workmanship, including full-height walnut doors designed by Gio Ponti, featuring refined copper detailing; an original bookcase designed by Gianfranco Frattini and crafted by master cabinetmaker Pierluigi Ghianda; and fully bespoke built-in furnishings. The custom-designed kitchen combines fluted walnut and stainless steel and is equipped with a Bora induction hob. The bathrooms feature exceptional finishes, including Mamoli Gio Ponti collection fittings and Marazzi tiles based on original designs. One of the bathrooms also boasts a whirlpool bathtub with chromotherapy. The principal bedroom features a walk-in wardrobe with LED lighting, bespoke full-height wardrobes inspired by Gio Ponti's designs for Molteni&C, and access to a terrace overlooking the peaceful Via Donizetti. The children's bedroom is enhanced by double windows and Fornasetti wallpaper, while all rooms offer comfort and abundant natural light. The property is offered fully furnished: all high-end, bespoke, artisan-crafted furniture is included in the asking price. Each furnishing element has been designed to optimise the available space, combining aesthetic appeal with maximum functionality and the use of premium materials. The property benefits from ducted air conditioning, an alarm system, aluminium window frames with triple glazing, a half-day concierge service and a cellar. A garage is also available. This exceptional property is ideal for discerning buyers seeking a home that represents the perfect balance of signature architecture, Italian design and a strategic location in one of Milan's most sought-after neighbourhoods.
