The area is situated 10 minutes from Lake Como and a one-hour drive from Milan.   The house is spread over three floors, offering ample space for relaxation and comfort. There are two bedrooms, three bathrooms, two double beds, and three single beds. Particularly, on the ground floor, you'll find a spacious living room with a dining area. The kitchen is well-equipped, and on the same floor, there's a bathroom with a complete shower. Going up to the first floor, you'll encounter two cozy bedrooms with double beds, each with its private bathroom. One of the two rooms has an internal staircase leading to the attic floor, where you'll find three additional single beds and a desk. A washing machine and other appliances are also provided. For guests arriving by car, the house offers private parking. The house is an ancient farmhouse that is part of the historic core of the village, so ancient that legend has it that Leonardo Da Vinci stayed here during his visit to Valsassina! The renovation was carried out directly by the owner, who wanted to combine the preservation of ancient architectural elements with one of the most innovative environmental redevelopment interventions (the house is in class AA+++). The location of our house is ideal for those who want to explore the Lake Como region, immersing themselves in the mountainous scenery. Whether you desire adventurous hikes, climbing experiences in the nearby mountains, or winter sports like skiing, this is the perfect base for your outdoor activities. .
