Single family villa Località Carzano 39, Carzano, Monte Isola

◼ Affordable single family lakefront home with two terraces on Monte Isola, Lago d'Iseo

With two verandas (covered terraces), this single family 2 bedroom 3 bath home directly on Lago d'Iseo (Lake Iseo) is prefect for the outdoor living the lake's mircoclimate encourages.

A gate from the lane which circles the island leads to a private courtyard and the ground level lake side veranda - and a magnificent view of the lake and the coast opposite which spectacularly rises out of the lake.

Swans, herons and ducks pass by, a sight to watch with a glass or two of the local Franciacorta wine, from the comfort of your paradise on earth.

The three level home, to the side of the veranda and courtyard, consists of:

▸ Ground floor
— large living room facing the lake
— dine-in kitchen
— bath with tub

▸ Upper floor
— a bedroom overlooking the lake
— a bedroom in the back
— a study, with some built-in storage
— bath with shower
— the upper veranda, directly above the ground level veranda

▸ Semi-basement
— two finished rooms
— bath with shower
— closet

The upper level has oak hardwood flooring throughout.

The home, bright and airy throughout, is in very good condition. The finished semi-basement was recently renovated; all three doors have also been recently replaced. Windows and doors are double glazed.

The heating system is natural gas fired. A pellet stove serves as an alternative system. A bedroom and the study are equipped with ceiling fans.

As a single family home, the home is free on all sides, a bit of a luxury in Italy where apartments and homes with at least one shared wall are much more common.

The current owner is leaving the country and as such is willing to consider leaving appliances and furniture should the buyer so desire; the kitchen will be left.

◆ About Monte Isola

Monte Isola (also written Montisola) is an island in the middle of Lake Iseo in northern Italy, about two hours from Milan. Its surface covers about 4.5 km² and counts about 1600 inhabitants.

Numerous olive tree groves are testament to the island's mild micro-climate. Fishing has historically been an important part of the local economy.

In 2016 it was made particularly famous by the The Floating Piers temporary installation of series of walkways by artist team Christo and Jeanne-Claude.

As cars are rare on the island, Monte Isola has a Venice like atmosphere without the Venetian crowds nor prices. Monte Isola is included as one of the “borghi più belli d'Italia”, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. The island has also been recognized for its sustainability by the EU's European Destinations of Excellence program.
