The origins of the complex are uncertain. Gianfranco Scarpari considers it generally eighteenth-century; Giuseppe Venturini is more precise and the date 1743 commissioned by the patrician Alvise Condulmer (without however reporting the reasons); Giuseppe Mazzotti places it in the seventeenth century. A tradition also asserts that the villa was built by demolishing an ancient monastery and it is assumed that the long barchessa orthogonal to the Sunday house is actually a remnant.
Shortly after the end of the Serenissima, the Condulmer became extinct and the property went to the Grassi family (owners of the well-known Grassi palace in Venice). In the first half of the nineteenth century Angelo Grassi, the last of his family, left it to Giovanni Battista Tornielli, scion of a friendly family.
During this period, from 6 March 1853, the villa hosted Giuseppe Verdi, to whom Tornielli had offered a few days of rest after the much criticized "prima" of La Traviata. The building was then inherited by the Bonaventura family and then ceded to the Monti. Constrained since 1939, it is now home to a hotel.
