Step n°4 : Former family house

The house originally opened onto a park with a rose garden, where the company restaurant now stands. Adjacent to the rose garden were the stables, as Ettore Bugatti was a horse lover. His favourite horse was Brouillard. He also had a collection of horse-drawn vehicles.

Over the years, he made changes to the Villa, adding for example a back staircase and a large glass structure or veranda as it was called.

This veranda was home to a magnificent conservatory – the finishing touch to the residence where Ettore Bugatti hosted his guests. He went on to install a private cinema underneath this, catering for his love of westerns.
