Description

We are pleased to offer this beautiful 5 bedroom detached villa with swimming pool and magnificent views, in the Muronico part of Argegno, just a few hundred metres from the lake and about 1 hour from Milan airports. The Villa was built to a high specification as a permanent main home, and was later rented out on a weekly basis during the summer months with a superb income over a 10 year period.

The villa provides spacious accommodation over 3 floors. On the ground floor there is a high-spec modern kitchen with island and dining area, leading down to a spacious living area with 3 sets of large patio doors to maximise the stunning views. This area leads out directly to a side garden and a spacious tiled area surrounding the pool.

There is a twin bedroom/study on this level with an elegant cloakroom with slate sink. The upper floor consists of 2 large bedrooms both with ensuite bathrooms and sharing a large wrap-around terrace with stunning views. The master bedroom has 3 sets of floor to ceiling windows and a large ensuite bathroom with walk in shower and stylish encased bath.

The second bedroom, also a double has a spacious ensuite shower room. On the lower ground floor, which can be accessed either internally or externally and can be used as a separate flat, has plumbing already installed to add a kitchen if so desired. It is currently laid out as a living area with large patio doors leading to a second garden and driveway, 2 bedrooms and a shower room.

Externally the property has a main driveway at ground floor level, side garden, pool area to front and side and a lower driveway and garden serving the lower ground floor. Argegno is located approximately 15 km from Como Town centre and 60 minutes to Milan airports. Argegno is a key town on the western side of Lake Como apart from being within easy reach of Milan it is also well served by local public transport - ferries and bus services ensuring residents can access all parts of the lake.

It is also known as the gateway to the Intelvi Valley, which is famous for its large green open spaces, ideal for hiking, as well as a Ski Resort and Golf Course at nearby Lanzo Intelvi. Argegno is also famed in the area for its wealth of restaurants, bars as well as other essential services - bank, chemist, post office, Lido shops and stores, everything you need on your door step.

Casa Travella was founded in 1987 when Linda & Pietro Travella saw an opportunity to offer Italian property for sale. At this time there were very few companies that offered any property for sale in Italy. Now years later read some of their story. The company is fronted by Linda Travella and Casa Travella started selling property on Lake Como, where Pietro was born and Linda has worked and lived.

The company were able to offer advice on numerous properties and ongoing help with all aspects of the buying process. If a client wants to restore a property, then Casa Travella can source tradesmen and professionals in the area and help with every aspect of the transaction. When the BBC were looking for someone to speak on BBC Breakfast News about European property Linda was chosen to appear live on the programme.

Other TV and radio programmes followed including Radio 5 Live, and I want that House with Mark Simpkins, where Linda appeared in 6 episodes, the last one being a live programme from Florida, where an Italian apartment was given away as a prize. Linda appeared for RTE, Irish TV and for Channel 4 s A Place in the Sun , where she accompanied Amanda Lamb along the shores of Lake Como by boat, to show her some of the stunning villas, including the one owned by George Clooney.

The Casa Travella team are always pleased to help when clients want to buy or sell a property in Italy. The office is multilingual with English, Italian and Spanish being spoken. Linda says: I feel proud that we can offer property for sale in many areas of Italy and we are able to give clients independent and professional advice on areas and types of property to suit their budget and needs. The Casa Travella team look forward to helping you buy or sell your Italian home. Casa Travella selling Italian Dream since 1987

Argegno, Lake Como, Italy

Interested in this property? Don't lose out to currency fluctuations changing the price you pay...

Many overseas buyers in Italy do not realise they can lose thousands of pounds through adverse currency exchange rate movements.

The property buying process in Italy takes time; it could be up to six months between seeing the property of your dreams and actually taking ownership. So how much would this €1,400,000 property cost you?

Property Price € Minimum cost in the last six months Maximum cost in the last six months Fluctuating exchange rates over the last six months could have increased the cost of this property by
€1,400,000 £1,190,966 £1,227,156 £36,190
Property Price € €1,400,000
Minimum cost in the last six months £1,190,966

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in Italy will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.

The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.

This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £36,190 more.
