Cannobio, House at Sale

TRAFFIUME - HISTORIC CENTRE.

ANCIENT HISTORICAL DWELLING WITH GARDEN.

Enclosed within ancient walls that conceal it from prying eyes, stands this old historic dwelling, which has retained all its charm intact.

From the outside, you cannot imagine the ancient beauty that appears as soon as you enter the wooden door: a courtyard of 80 square metres paved in stone with a few statues, a House with Mediterranean colours and a long balcony that runs along the three façades, and finally 700 square metres of flat garden, enclosed by an original boundary wall, with flowery corners, stone tables, flower beds, statues, paths and a grape pergola that leads up to the House.

The whole House speaks of history: from the colour of the façade embellished with climbing flowers, to the ancient arched loggia, the burgundy shutters, and the moulded wooden windows with wrought-iron grilles.

The entrance is the first step into an atmosphere of yesteryear. We are greeted by an atrium with a stone floor, an antique stone sink and a stone portrait of the owner who built the property in 1700.

On the ground floor there is a living room with a fireplace and frescoed ceilings, a kitchen also with a fireplace, a study, a tailor's workshop, a laundry, cellars and storerooms.

On the upper floor are five bedrooms, four of which have balconies, still completely original even in their furnishings, and two bathrooms.
Special attention should be paid to the tiled floors in the living area and the handmade terracotta floors in the bedrooms.
This noble residence, in addition to its architectural beauty, is rich in tranquillity and peace and its garden offers absolute privacy.
