Characteristic Lake Front House in the Medieval Hamlet of Predore Directly on the Lake Front

How about this lovely and characteristic lake front property situated in the historical hamlet of Predore directly on the shores of Lake Iseo. It’s origins date back to the 16th century and boasts one of the most fantastic and unique positions on the lake. Divided into two buildings, the entrance into the courtyard facing the lake with a lift to all floors and a fitted kitchen, as well as a beautiful veranda and private garden directly on the lake and then just next door there is the main house accessible through some impressive double wooden doors which are certain to have some historical flavour . Currently the property is used as a successful hospitality business and is presently divided into three separate units each equipped with a modern kitchen and private bathroom, it can either be developed into one beautiful property which our company can assist to do or it can be increased in size to accommodate more rooms and enhance the current business. There is also a third floor with characteristic wood beams and arched windows where there is a project to enhance into a living area with a spacious terrace of over 30mq.

Ground Floor

The studio floor has a modern fitted kitchen with all the mod cons with a magnificent vaulted ceiling throughout and an impressive functional open fire place which dates back to the 16th century. A modern bathroom with shower and exposed stone work completes this room, there is air conditioning which also is heating to this room.  The floor is paved in old ceramic tiling which is very characteristic.

A marble staircase leads up to the first floor.

First Floor

The first  room on this floor consists of a very bright and self-contained studio apartment complete with French doors opening onto a balcony overlooking the lake, a modern bathroom with shower, a fully fitted modern kitchen and an open plan bedroom completes this room.  There is air conditioning in this room too and gas central heating throughout.  Further down the corridor with granite framed door openings there is another modern fully fitted kitchen  with a tiled ceramic floor and a lovely window overlooking the characteristic borgo with views of the historical Villa Lanza which lies comfortably next to the ferry port. There is a further spacious bathroom with shower and a lift completes this area. From here we walk through to the main part of the house which boasts two very large arched coloured windows and a playful terrace overlooking the lake and the courtyard and garden. Here we have a spacious living area all in parquet flooring and a further bedroom with air conditioning. Gas central heating throughout and partial double glazing.

Attic Floor

Actually you can access this floor through the pull down stairway it currently has high ceilings of around 2.70mq in height, wood beamed ceilings throughout and windows on three sides of the building. The windows facing the lake are all arched.  There is a pre-approved project for the transformation of this floor.

Studying the layout of the house our company would advise the potential clients to turn the house upside down in the case of making into a home. The attic floor could be the day area with a nice open plan kitchen, a bedroom and bathroom and a lovely open floor terrace. The lift could be extended to reach this floor. The first floor could be changed into bedrooms with maybe a steam room and the downstairs studio apartment could either remain as such for guests or become a study……the courtyard would remain the same…..

Parking is outside the property and there is also the possibility of obtaining a mooring for parking a boat.
