Description
This elegant and majestic palace boats an extraordinary setting on Piazza Motta: the heart of Orta San Giulio. The building overlooks the shores of the magical Lake Orta, in front of the Island of San Giulio. The origins of the building are from the seventeenth century, like other buildings in the square and it is said that it was the seat of the Magistrate's Court and other important institutions until, in the first half of the nineteenth century, the building was bought by a hoteliers’ family from Armeno, who founded the famous Albergo Orta. The property was renovated and enlarged with some changes to the original structure of the seventeenth-century building; Albergo Orta has been closed for at least 20 years and needs major structural interventions. Ideal real estate as a charming accommodation facility or luxury relais with direct access to Lake Orta, it has a commercial area of over 2,000 square meters over 4 floors in addition to the habitable attic. From each floor you can enjoy an enchanting view of the island of San Giulio, the square and the magical village of Orta. An elegant porch and a large window overlooking the Lake embellish the building on the ground floor. The beauty and originality of the façade is also given by the "sgraffito" decoration, noble and ancient art known since the classical era and then taken up by the Italian Renaissance masters. The structure is in masonry with wooden floors. Internally, the vertical development is accompanied by two staircases and a central lift that reaches all the floors.
