'Casa Alta’ farmhouse in Lurago D'Erba
Nestled among the rolling hills of Lombardy, where the view opens up to Monguzzo Castle, embracing the Pre-Alps and, on clear days, reaching as far as Monte Rosa. This is where this farmhouse with an ancient heart stands, ready to be reborn. With its 1,290 square metres of floor space and over 13,000 square metres of land, this property tells stories of a bygone era: five apartments, loggias that seem suspended in silence, rustic warehouses and a portico that invites you to slow down and breathe. Inside, solid wooden beams, terracotta floors, fireplaces to be reawakened and exposed stone walls create an authentic atmosphere, made of matter and memory. Every corner is an invitation to imagine, to design, to bring back to life what once was. The farmhouse needs major renovation, including a new roof, but it offers a solid and poetic base for those who dream of a large-scale project: a charming residence, a country relais, a refuge for souls in search of beauty. The property is completed by a large garage of about 90 square metres, perfect for accommodating dreams on four wheels or becoming a creative space.
