The Villa, with its stupendous garden and natural park, has stood at 500 meters on the top of San Mauro hill, since 1778, with a panorama to be envied which sweeps to the city of Rieti. It was the hunting residence of a noble Rieti family, having always been a luxurious structure made precious with Frescoes, decorations, friezes, and stucco work. Transformed from a hunting residence between 1781 and 1795, when the rich Rieti family first increased in power and prestige, into a sumptuous summer residence, about the middle of the 1800s, and became the seat for the little “court” of the Prince Ludovico Spada Veralli Potenziani (1880-1971), during the first years of the 1900s.
Bought by Balzerani family, reconstruction began in 1990 to return it to its ancient splendor and to transform it into a quality hotel.
