The Villa Branca project develops a concept, aimed at potential investors and future operators, centered on creating a Longevity Lab Luxury: a place that integrates the surrounding territory, an accommodation facility housed in a historic residence, spaces for research, training and events, as well as areas dedicated to dining and tasting. The goal is to offer an exclusive and complete service targeted at the luxury sector, through four key disciplines:
Hospitality and Dining
Events and Experiences
Land and Laboratories
Research and Training
Torrazza Coste is located in the hilly area of the Oltrepò Pavese, a territory with clear tourism and economic potential. It lies only 6 km from the town center of Voghera and 32 km from the provincial capital, Pavia. The area features characteristics that distinguish it and make it particularly aligned with modern tourism trends in consumption and destination choice. It is 3.5 km from the Provincial Road and 4.5 km from the State Road.
The hilly landscape of Torrazza offers views of spontaneous, lush vegetation, characteristic residential clusters, and well-oriented sunlit slopes of high-quality vineyards, consistent with the nature of the entire Oltrepò Pavese. The local economy is predominantly wine-producing, but today it is complemented by the activities of new artisan, commercial, and industrial entrepreneurs. Additionally, new resources are emerging in the agro-tourism and food-and-wine sectors—activities for which the territory and its rural culture are particularly suited.
