Description
In Perledo, in the village and historic centre, we offer for sale a detached stone house of the18th century a few minutes from Varenna and currently inhabited by the owners, who have restored it over the years with conservative interventions and improvements.
Some details of the original building have been retained to give originality and charm to the house, such as the walls and the room on the ground floor with the stairwell made of fine wood.
The building is on four levels with independent access from the street and is composed as follows: on the ground floor there is an entrance hall, a large accessory room used as a tavern with fireplace and vaulted ceiling, a technical room, a laundry room and internal staircase leading to the upper floors; on the first floor there is a living room with open kitchen and bathroom; on the second floor there is a hallway, two bedrooms, a bathroom and two balconies while on the top floor there is a beautiful terrace with a splendid view of the medieval castle of Vezio and the central part of Lake Como, particularly impressive at sunset.
The interior finishes are simple but sober.
A single garage just a few minutes from the house completes the property.
This is one of the few historic properties for sale between Perledo and Varenna and is suitable for use as a holiday home for short rentals or second home.
The town of Perledo is situated only 5 minutes by car above Varenna, the jewel of Lake Como, ideally situated with road and rail connections accessing Milan directly within an hour. Extensive boat services for both foot passengers and vehicles run from Varenna to all ends of the lake. A service runs throughout the year with tourist boats in summer calling at many villages from Colico to Como and Lecco. Varenna itself is a charming town with excellent restaurants, bars and hotels. There are three artist's studios with paintings to take home as momentos of this special area of the Centre Lake of Como.
