Property Description
Albero del Segnale is a never-been-replicated Tuscan-style sprawling villa located on ten acres in the
Potomac countryside on historic Civil War property. The property was custom-built to be a center
for creativity with artists in mind. Every detail was meticulously crafted with European materials,
including reclaimed cobblestone, limestone columns, and over 100 uniquely intricate handcrafted
wood doors. The villa's design evokes a traditional Tuscan hilltop village, featuring multiple
courtyards, garages, and a three-story bell tower. The varied spaces across the vast estate beckon
artists to retreat for creative work and gather together again for inspiration.
The main level of the property includes many spaces perfect for both intimate conversations and
gathering large groups. The heartbeat of the property in the center is built for entertaining groups
showcasing musical genius, including a wood floor built specifically to draw out the sounds of an
orchestra and the grand piano. A two-story library with impeccable sound gives artists space for
research and contemplation. A professional-grade kitchen allows events to be catered seamlessly
and flow easily indoors and outdoors. Storage and office areas on this level of the property are neatly
tucked away to allow events to run flawlessly. The indoor lap pool and Turkish baths allow for artistic
inspiration, relaxation for potential artists-in-residence, and a beautiful focal point for large events.
Eight bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, including a rustic apartment potentially available for a
property caretaker, allow for the possibility of artists-in-residence to retreat for longer periods of
time at the estate. These eight rooms are also alternatively able to be used as offices or studios, with
multiple other spaces across the estate also able to be utilized as individual or group creative spaces,
including the garages which are both heated and cooled.
The lower level offers practical amenities including a design studio, several large gathering rooms
perfect for lectures, presentations, and/or seated dinners, along with a secure 1,600 square foot vault.
The ten-acre estate also features outdoor attractions like a workshop, pond, and chapel ruins, ideal
for larger group artist retreats, weddings, conferences, showcases, or other gatherings. Albero del
Segnale can only be described as perfect for creative souls—chefs, musicians, historians, writers, and
visual and performing artists—seeking inspiration in a breathtaking, historically rich environment.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a creative retreat center that can never be duplicated.
Let it be the Signal Tree for your institution for generations to come.
