Description
In Agrano, a picturesque hillside district of Omegna, in a privileged location that combines privacy and nature, stands a villa surrounded by greenery with a splendid view of the mountains. The area is characterized by tranquility and scenic charm, yet it is just minutes from the center of Omegna and the shores of Lake Orta, famous for its enchanting atmosphere, historic villages, and the island of San Giulio. The proximity to the main connecting roads also ensures easy access to both the cities of Piedmont and Switzerland, making the property convenient and well-connected while maintaining the typical serenity of lake and mountain landscapes.
The villa is spread over several levels and welcomes with spacious and bright areas. On the ground floor, an entrance leads to a large kitchen and an elegant dining room with a fireplace, both overlooking an open veranda that interacts with the garden. On the same floor, there is also an additional living area, also with a fireplace, as well as a guest bathroom.
The first floor houses the sleeping area, with four bedrooms: two larger ones, both with balconies and garden views, and two additional bedrooms, served by two bathrooms. The top level opens up to a large area with an exposed roof, currently in need of renovation, ideal for creating additional living spaces or an independent apartment.
The property is completed by a basement with a cellar perfect for wine storage and a garden that houses a rustic building in good condition, currently used as a garage but with the possibility of transforming it into an annex. The outdoor spaces, large and private, also offer the possibility of creating a swimming pool.
This villa represents a rare opportunity for those who desire a charming dwelling immersed in nature, capable of combining the warmth of a private residence with the harmony and beauty of one of the most enchanting places in Piedmont.
Considered the most romantic in Italy, Lake Orta is a pre-alpine lake a few kilometers from Lake Maggiore and only an hour's drive from Milan and Turin. It is already a beloved destination for renowned chefs who have opened famous restaurants here and for entrepreneurs who have created resorts and accommodations of rare beauty. At its center is the Island of San Giulio, a symbol of the territory, beautiful and unique in its kind, attracting thousands of visitors each year. Among the most characteristic towns, besides Ameno and Miasino with the enchanting Villa Nigra, is undoubtedly Orta, with the Sacred Mountain, the historic center rich in cobblestone alleys, the central square from which boats depart for the Island of San Giulio, and the panoramic walk among sumptuous villas. On the opposite shore is Pella: a delightful town also reachable via a walk starting from the Lido of Gozzano. Not far away is the Sanctuary of Madonna del Sasso, situated on a rocky spur overlooking the Lake. From here, the view spans an exciting breathtaking panorama, made of slopes and green peaks reflecting in the mirror of water. Continuing north, you'll first find Oira, which is certainly worth a visit, and then Omegna, one of the largest towns, where the Strona stream, curiously, flows backward. The waters of Lake Orta are clear and suitable for swimming, and many sports are practiced: from swimming to sailing, from canoeing to diving. Surrounded by green mountains, there are many trails for walking in nature, also reaching the summit of Mount Mottarone, above Stresa. It is also not far from Val d'Ossola, a destination for those who love high mountain trips both during the beautiful season and in winter.
