Description

This enchanting villa stands on the heights of Madonna del Sasso, in a privileged position that affords a spectacular view of Lake Orta and the enchanting island of San Giulio. The property, steeped in history and charm, consists of a villa, with a charming panoramic turret, and additional independent flats. The main villa, which is spread over four levels, retains its original Art Nouveau layout, although it is in need of maintenance and modernisation to restore it to its former glory. On the ground floor, an elegant entrance hall leads to a granite staircase leading to the upper floors. The hallway leads to a large living room with a dining room, with a windowed veranda offering a panoramic view of the lake, creating a bright and atmospheric environment. An eat-in kitchen, a bedroom and a bathroom complete the floor. On the first floor, there are three large bedrooms, of which the master bedroom opens onto a panoramic balcony, offering a spectacular view of the surrounding landscape. A well-finished bathroom completes the floor. On the second floor, four more rooms can be adapted to make an independent flat, ideal for guests or family members. Going further up, one accesses the panoramic turret that represents a real jewel of the villa: a small cosy room that invites one to contemplate the marvellous surrounding landscape with a 360° view. The basement houses technical rooms, cellars and an additional flat with direct access to the garden, guaranteeing functionality and convenience. Completing the property are five further flats (one studio, three two-room apartments and one three-room apartment), all with independent entrances, offering additional living space for guests or large families. Numerous relaxation areas are arranged along the pleasant walkways that cross the garden, creating ideal corners to enjoy the tranquillity and beauty of the place. The villa, which is located just a few steps from the quiet village of Boleto and the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Sasso, enjoys perfect exposure to the sun, which provides a special microclimate due to its proximity to the lake. Only ten minutes from the shores of Lake Orta, and a little more from the renowned tourist resorts along Lake Maggiore, this property, unique for its elegance and location, represents an extraordinary opportunity for those seeking a refined and prestigious residence in one of the most fascinating places with a breathtaking view.

Location: Madonna del Sasso, Boleto

Known as the most romantic Italian lake, Lago d’Orta is a pre-alpine lake, located a few kilometres away from Lago Maggiore and just an hour-ride from Milan and Tourin. With its restaurants, as well as resorts and accommodation facilities of a rare beauty, Lago d’Orta is also famous for hosting renown chefs and entrepreneurs. In the middle we can spot San Giulio Island, symbol of this land, which attracts thousands of tourists from all over the world every year. Among the most characteristic towns, in addition to Ameno and Miasino, with the enchanting Villa Nigra, there is undoubtedly Orta, with its Sacro Monte, the historic centre rich in cobblestone alleys, the central square where you can take the ferry to San Giulio and the panoramic walk among the sumptuous villas. On the opposite shore we find Pella: a charming town, which you can also reach through a natural path, that starts from Lido di Gozzano and runs along the lake. Not far from here, the Santuario della Madonna del Sasso stands out on a rocky spur overlooking the lake. The panorama is exciting and breathtaking, made up of slopes and green peaks reflecting in the water. Going northward, we will first meet Oira, worth a visit, and then Omegna, one of the biggest towns, where the Strona river curiously flows backwards. Lago d’Orta clear water makes it a bathing lake, offering different sport activities, such as swimming, sailing, canoeing and diving. Surrounded by green mountains, it also offers a great variety of natural paths, some leading up to the summit of Monte Mottarone, above Stresa. It is not far from Val d’Ossola, the perfect place for those who like spending time in the mountains, both during summer and winter. A quiet place, rich in history, where you can find your new home.
