Prestigious Panoramic Property Above Bergamo

This prestigious property with a 3-hectare park and a big pool is for sale in the heart of an ancient hamlet in the province of Bergamo, near Lecco, Como and Milan.

Located in an enchanting panoramic position above a valley near Bergamo, a short distance from the banks of the Adda river, this estate consists of a splendid villa, the design of which is the result of an important project from the 1950s that bears the signature of one of the most famous architects, Mr Fois, who also took care of its subsequent modernization, which was also followed by his children in the following years. This is flanked by a charming stone building, probably built around the year 1000 on an already existing Roman fortification, which stands out over its surroundings thanks to its splendid medieval watchtower, finely restored and made habitable between the 1970s and the 1980s.

The interiors of the main house, arranged on a single floor and measuring 700 square meters, feature a series of elegant and refined rooms, including a kitchen with a hallway, a spare room with a bathroom and a laundry/ironing room, a dining room with access to the porch, with an outdoor fireplace with a spit for roasting meat, a TV room, a second dining room and an official lounge, as well as a small study.

The sleeping area is home to three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a master suite with a dressing room and two en-suite bathrooms.

An attic and a cellar, partly intended as a small room with a ping pong table, with an adjacent boiler room, complete this beautiful villa.

The atmosphere is one of absolute tranquility, far from the hectic pace of big cities. Also thanks to the enchanting vineyard that occupies the hill near the swimming pool, which with its perfect geometry conveys a sense of peace and serenity. The part below the tower, which has always been used as an orchard, still boasts apple and peach trees.

The garden, conceived in collaboration with architect Fois, is extraordinarily planted with specimens of great value, including majestic beeches, cypresses and magnolias. Along the avenue that leads to the pool area, we can find a rose garden: a romantic corner that includes species from all over the world.

Convenient to reach the international airport of Orio al Serio in Bergamo in 20 minutes, this estate is the perfect starting point to discover the area of Lecco, just half an hour away, and Milan, 40 minutes away.
