The area is 10 minutes from Lake Como, and an hour's drive from Milan. The house is on 3 floors, with ample space for relaxation and comfort. There are two bedrooms, three bathrooms, two double beds and three other single beds. In particular, on the ground floor there is a large living room with dining area. The kitchen is well equipped and, also on the ground floor, a bathroom with a full shower. Going up to the first floor there are two cozy bedrooms, with double beds and each room has a private bathroom. One of the two bedrooms has an internal staircase leading to the top attic floor, where you can find another three single beds and a desk. There is also a washing machine, in addition to other appliances. For guests who wish to reach us by car, the house offers private parking. The house is an ancient farmhouse that is part of the historic first nucleus of the town, so old that legend has it that Leonardo Da Vinci stayed there during his visit to Valsassina! The renovation was carried out directly by the owner, who wanted to combine the maintenance of the ancient architectural elements with one of the most innovative environmental redevelopment interventions (the house is in class AA+++). The location of our house is ideal for those who wish to explore the Lake Como region, immersing themselves in the mountain scenery. Whether you want to go on adventurous hikes, enjoy climbing experiences in the nearby mountains or practice winter sports such as skiing, this is the perfect base for your outdoor activities. The apartment is managed by Nativoo, a benefit company that pursues measurable and concrete sustainability objectives in its statute. The apartment is part of the NativooForGood project that pursues sustainable development objectives for short rentals in the territory of Lake Como and Valsassina. .
