Original and historic property, in perfect condition, with garden and wonderful lake view.

Magnificent restoration of an aristocratic house from the end of the 17th century on the hillside above Oggebbio. 

In Oggebbio, in the small, romantic and very well preserved as well as restored hamlet of Rancone, is this particular and elegant property, consisting of three wings of house overlooking an internal courtyard of singular charm.  

The house is an old rural dwelling house, which has been perfectly restored with taste and attention to the smallest details in the years 1990 - 2000 with modern solutions both from a technical and architectural point of view, which however do not affect the original and ancient character of these interiors.

The building has three floors around an internal courtyard from which the various flats can be accessed independently. In addition to being a home for a large family, the complex is also suitable for use as a small conference centre, residential seminars, or as a holiday home with several lodgings. 

Facing the southern façade is the romantic little square of the small hamlet, which belongs to the property, and from this you can access the beautiful garden: a flat square enclosed by high walls on three sides, with excellent sun exposure, sheltered from the winds and with a wonderful view of the lake.  

From the small square one has access to the inner courtyard with beola stone paving, and from here respectively to the main accommodation composed of living room, kitchen, dining room and guest toilet on the ground floor; study, two bedrooms with bathrooms and balcony from which one has access to a fantastic covered loggia on the first floor; study and solarium on the attic floor.

The upstream wing has a large open space with living room, dining area with fireplace and old grape press, kitchen, utility room, guest bathroom and study on the ground floor; large living room / multipurpose room with storage room, library, bedroom and outdoor courtyard on the first floor; two lofts in the attic; 

In the east wing there are two small independent guest lodgings.

The property is immersed in an oasis of peace and tranquillity and can only be reached on foot along a convenient mule track just 200 metres from ample public parking. 

There is independent methane gas heating for the various units and several wood-burning fireplaces in the living and study rooms.
