Mohamed Alabbar has shared the first public details of Antognolla Private Estate, a large-scale luxury development set in the hills of Umbria, Italy.
The estate covers nearly six million square metres (65 million square feet) and centres on a 12th-century castle that Alabbar says is being restored as a luxury hotel. Surrounding it, the project includes private residences, a wellness retreat, a polo club, and a golf course running through the valley.
The Emaar chairman announced the project through his personal Instagram account, inviting followers to register interest on the estate’s website and track the project as it develops.
The scale of the landholding places Antognolla among the larger private estate developments in Europe. At roughly 60 square kilometres, the site is comparable in area to a small Italian comune.
