At the foot of the Old City of Luxembourg, encircled by grounds more than a century old crafted by celebrated landscape designer Edouard André, Villa Pétrusse has made its home in a private residence, an architectural jewel that is emblematic of the city’s late-19th-century transformation. Travel back in time in the refined elegance and old-world charm of a property that exudes the subtle, unostentatious warmth of a well-appointed family home inhabited by discerning art lovers.
