4 bedrooms villa, 285 m²

Carate Urio, Como (province)

Lake Como

Call for investors! 
This intriguing detached house, dating back to the glorious ‘30s but completely renovated in 2005, is located in the vibrant Carate Urio (western bank of Lake Como), a few steps from the lake.
Reachable only on foot, the house features the utmost of privacy thanks to the extensive park (about 840 sq.m) which surrounds it: you won’t here any noise here except for the birdsong and the lovely sound of seagulls from the nearby pebbled beach!
In the upper side of the park, in particular, one could potentially study the realization of a wonderful panoramic pool. 
Internally, the versatile layout offers accommodation over three levels: perfect for hosting a large family, or for rental purposes!
The ground floor (about 100 sq.m) is completely independent and comprises an entrance hall, a bright living room with fireplace, dining room, a fully fitted wooden kitchen, two bedrooms and two bathrooms (one with tub and one with shower). 
From here you have the direct access to the lovely courtyard and pergolato (perfect for chilling in the summer days), the BBQ corner (just perfect for alfresco dining with friends in the summer days!) and the spectacular multi-levels garden. Here, an ancient Japanese red maple stands in all its silent majesty.
The sunny first floor comprises a large living room with fireplace and 180° lake view from the balcony, a stylish checkered kitchen, bedroom, laundry corner, and fully fitted bathroom with tub.
From this level, the internal staircase leads to the welcoming penthouse, which now is an inviting open space with fabulous exposed wooden beams, skylights that flood the room with light (making it a perfect reading/study room), a romantic  bathroom with Jacuzzi, and a convenient storage. The “emotional hub” of this level is by no doubts the large panoramic window of the loggia, framed but the slopes of the roof: a real painting which simply invites you to sit down and unwind while admiring the stunning scenery out there!
A cellar is included in the sale.
The romantic village of Carate Urio is located just 9 minutes drive from Cernobbio and the upscale Villa D'Este Golf Club, 20 minutes drive from the attractions of the central lake and just 20 minutes drive from the highlights of Como city.
