Description

In one of the greenest and most private areas of Pettenasco, immersed in the tranquillity of the hills surrounding Lake Orta, this small rustic building represents a rare opportunity to create a truly special place. The property enjoys a splendid lake view and an open panorama towards the mountains, in a natural setting where silence, privacy and landscape take centre stage. The rustic building, measuring approximately 57 sq m, is surrounded by about 2,000 sq m of land and has independent direct vehicular access. The centre of Pettenasco, the lake and all main services can be reached within a few minutes. An ideal place for imagining a small pied-à-terre on Lake Orta, a weekend home or a retreat in which to escape everyday life and enjoy the area in every season. By way of example, the renovation could allow for the creation of a living area with kitchenette and bathroom on the ground floor, enhanced by a veranda overlooking the greenery, while the upper floor could accommodate a bedroom with a panoramic lake-view terrace. A compact and intimate solution designed for those seeking a small nest immersed in nature, in a location that would be difficult to replicate. The property currently falls within a non-buildable agricultural area. Consequently, work may be carried out exclusively through the recovery of the existing volume, with a possible change of use to residential use as part of the renovation—including through demolition and reconstruction—subject to the necessary planning checks and authorisations. It is not possible to increase the existing volume, construct a larger villa or relocate the building to another position within the land. A distinctive proposal on Lake Orta, interesting both for personal use and as an investment, with the additional potential offered by any future developments in local urban planning.

    Location: Pettenasco, Piedmont

    Considered the most romantic lake in Italy, Lake Orta is a pre-Alpine lake just a few kilometres from Lake Maggiore and only an hour’s drive from Milan and Turin.

    Already a much-loved destination for renowned chefs, who have opened acclaimed restaurants here, and entrepreneurs, who have created resorts and accommodation facilities of rare beauty. At its centre lies San Giulio Island, a symbol of the area, beautiful and unique, attracting thousands of visitors every year.

    Among the most characteristic towns, besides Ameno and Miasino, with its enchanting Villa Nigra, Orta certainly stands out, with the Sacro Monte, its historic centre full of cobbled lanes, the central square from which boats leave for San Giulio Island, and the panoramic promenade among magnificent villas.

    On the opposite shore lies Pella, a delightful town also reachable via a walk starting from Gozzano Lido. Not far away is the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Sasso, situated on a rocky spur overlooking the lake. From here, the view opens onto a breathtaking panorama of slopes and green peaks reflected in the water. Continuing north, we first come to Oira, certainly worth a visit, and then Omegna, one of the largest towns, where the Strona stream, intriguingly, flows in the opposite direction.

    Lake Orta’s waters are clear and suitable for swimming, and many sports are practised here: from swimming and sailing to canoeing and diving. Surrounded by green mountains, it offers numerous paths for walking in nature, reaching as far as the summit of Monte Mottarone, above Stresa.

    A peaceful, sought-after place, rich in history, where you can find your new home.
