Description

Herein we are happy to introduce you to a meticulously preserved old monastery convent, steeped in antiquity and brimming with some of its original details that harken back to the early 19th century.

This distinguished property, though currently in need of comprehensive restoration, exudes an undeniable charm that transports one to a bygone era upon entry. From the moment you cross the threshold, you are enveloped in an ambiance reminiscent of a quaint village nestled within the confines of this remarkable dwelling.

Spread across three levels, each with its own unique character and potential, this convent presents an exceptional opportunity for those with a passion for restoration and a reverence for heritage. Descending to the basement level, discover a series of four rooms, where three have been utilized as cellars, preserving the essence of the building's origins. An intriguing highlight awaits in the form of the old chapel, impeccably maintained with its vaulted ceiling and adorned frescoes, offering a glimpse into the spiritual history of the property.

Ascending to the ground level, the main entrance beckons you into a space of possibilities, featuring five distinct rooms. Among them, three offer the potential for use as bedrooms, while a gracious living area showcases an original fireplace, inviting warmth and comfort. An additional room, ideally suited for dining, completes this level, setting the stage for gatherings steeped in tradition and conviviality.

The allure of this residence extends to the uppermost floor, where six rooms await alongside a bathroom, all beneath the embrace of wooden beam ceilings. A terrace crowns this level, offering panoramic views and a tranquil retreat amidst the timeless beauty of the surrounding landscape.

This unique gem is for those who are looking for the opportunity to restore and reimagine an architectural treasure, where the echoes of history resonate at every turn.

About Lakeside Real Estate, Lake Como

Piazza Roma n.4, 22010 Argegno, Como.

Lakeside is a Real Estate and Brokerage agency operating on Lake Como.

We are the most and best reviewed real estate brand of the area online: our clients’ words are the best proof of the quality of our work.

We are a team of locals: we know our beloved Lake just perfectly.

This means, first, that we know the local property market backwards and forwards. We have a wide portfolio of prime properties for sale, and we constantly have an eye for opportunities also thanks to our capillary network of synergies with local agents, private owners and builders; this significantly increases the probability of finding the best property for you, and decreases the time needed to do it.

Second, that we could spend hours in talking about our Lake: chat with us and you will be surprised to hear the genuine passion we have when we describe the history of our villages, or when we share insights about locations, or again when we suggest you how to best enjoy Lake Como life. We particularly love to explain to our clients the unique soul of each single area of our territory: we believe this is an incomparable added value that only a native company like ours can provide.

“Local vibes. Global minds”, our tagline speaks clear: our distinctive feature is the ability to combine a sound know-how of the area with a marked international vocation, the latter proved by our multiple partnerships with businesses in Sweden, US and multiple countries abroad.

Our headquarters are located on the West Coast of the Lake (the sunniest and the one with the strongest international charme), in three of the most vibrant crossroads of global buyers: Menaggio, Argegno and San Siro.

Sales-related services, property management, financial assistance, renovation and project management: the range of services we offer is one of the most comprehensive on the local market.

Our team is young and smart, and this basically means three great soft skills: our extreme flexibility; our steady energy and proactivity; and our passion for digital storytelling, that leads our investment in professional photo and integrated marketing campaigns.

Our mission is to help who really loves our place find the retreat they deserve.
