The road is empty and the car meanders through the mountains and along the lake shore, overlooking the calm water, surrounded by fir trees and a few alpine villages scattered here and there. We are at the Casa d'Idro, in the municipality of Idro, on the western shore of the lake in a panoramic and sunny position. The oldest structure of the House dates back to the period between the end of the Middle Ages and the beginning of the Renaissance. We are talking about the 15th century and we immediately notice the conformation of the building, with the ground floor and its portico, the typical stables, a series of storerooms and cellars, while on the first floor, as was customary in the past, we find the living quarters, barns and other rooms that once served the function of extra storage rooms, but which today could be rooms, communal spaces or other, depending on how one wants to re-imagine the distribution of space. Crowning the ancient farmhouse is a fund, part of which is used for grazing, part for fodder production, with an orchard, wood and vegetable garden. In short, an ancient farmhouse worthy of a setting for a Boccaccio tale. In fact, the farmhouse features architectural elements and artefacts that constitute significant evidence of local history and art, which in this case are also recognised as being of immeasurable cultural and architectural value. It has been years, if not decades now, that the world has completely changed, and although one would like to tell a long story of ancient intrigues, love affairs, victories and defeats, a tale worthy of an epic novel, we are forced to return from our journey through time and note that, as is the case in many cases, modernity has brought about the cessation of farming and livestock breeding, leading to the loss of the land's peculiar vocation. But, as we all know, one door closes and another one opens. The current owners, who are engaged in other activities, have always, in keeping with family tradition, kept the building and grounds in good condition. In fact, they have carried out numerous maintenance works on the main building, also at a structural level, and have periodically mowed the grass, cut wood and cared for the fruit trees, keeping the entire property in good condition.à. In the light of all this, the possibilities for functional recovery are many, from a tourist-restaurant and restaurant vocation to socio-healthcare or senior housing, but also purely residential, all of which obviously implies the restoration of the main building with a redistribution of the internal spaces and a feasibility assessment of the construction of new facilities to increase the opportunities and services to be offered depending on the final destination. Here, along the magnificent Lake Idro, in an old house full of history and ready to welcome new and even more beautiful ones.

Today we are ready for a Vespa outing, the sun has already shown itself in all its splendour since early morning, contrasting with the turquoise sky. Riding along the western Gardesana today is more beautiful than ever, to the left the ancient walls bordering Lake Garda and to the right all the shades of green of the vegetation. I love not going too fast on my motorbike and with my helmet back with goggles because I am also lucky enough to smell the scents which, combined with the landscape, make for a 360° experience. Our tour starts from Monte Gu, as they call it here, we are over 1550 m on Monte Pizzocolo where we can admire the Adamello group, Monte Rosa, the Apennines, Monte Baldo and the ValVestino dam. We stop at the "due aceri" bivouac, where there is a small church dedicated to the fallen of all wars, because from the top we truly have a wonderful view of the enchanted place in which the property we are about to see is set. Back on our bikes, we finally head for Toscolano Maderno which, as I have told you, is located on the western shore of Lake Garda, in the province of Brescia. This small town has ancient roots, even dating back to Roman times, and is known for its natural beauty, with its breathtaking views of the lake and surrounding hills, but also for its rich history and culture. In the past it was also an important centre of paper production in the afternoon walk to the Valle delle Cartiere we will see an interesting paper museum. The two-room apartment set in a modern residential centre overlooks on one side the ancient port of Toscolano, which between the 15th and 18th centuries was a centre for sorting paper and iron, from where boats arrived and departed for Venice, and on the other the practical swimming pool set in the beautiful condominium park, which allows us to enjoy our holidays with all the comforts. We reach the flat, which is on the third floor, by an external staircase overlooking the central park, and from here we access the living area with two views, one of which overlooks the small terrace overlooking the lake and the other the terrace from which we entered. The sleeping area is independent and bordered by a door beyond which is the bathroom with shower and to the right the master bedroom which overlooks the terrace with pool view and to the left the single bedroom which overlooks the small balcony with lake view. The staircase from the living room leads to a splendid private terrace on the fourth and top floor, structured in such a way as to guarantee total privacy and a special place to spend evenings alone or in company. You thought the surprises were over? Wrong, the flat is completed by a garage and a practical cellar. How? OK let's get the bike and go and see it...you will be as enraptured as I am.

We walk through the districts of the Ispica countryside, where blades of grass lie prone to the constant blowing of the sea breeze, laden with swollen dewdrops in which the sun is reflected in the turquoise sky. The old farmhouse immediately evokes the idea of frugality, rusticity and the echo of a distant yet so incredibly familiar era. It is a marvel of absolute calm, in an infinite field, a reality in which one can laugh, joke, cry and love without anyone knowing. In other words, it is a place we could truly call our own. Today, however, the property is in a state of neglect, the garden is uncultivated and in need of replacement. But, equipped with the right vision, we immediately identify the main concept: do we salvage the two small houses that are there or do we demolish everything and salvage the volume? Either way, the imagination has a lot to feed on. A modern, contemporary villa in a minimalist style as well as a combination of tradition and modernity? A swimming pool or jacuzzi? Or a volleyball net hung between a palm and an oak tree? Or solar panels on a canopy to protect the car? A beautiful colonnade with climbing plants or an orchard, an olive grove, a citrus grove or... the ideas are endless, just like the potential of this rustic cottage nestled in its gigantic grounds that seem to be a fiefdom worthy of a medieval noble vassal. And so the proposal takes shape: a large plot of land of more than 12,000 square metres plus two buildings, the larger of which is partly used as a dwelling with a living area, two bedrooms, bathroom and storeroom, with a warehouse alongside, while the second building, of more modest dimensions, was certainly once used as an agricultural warehouse. Today we can think either of recovering the volume, or of renovating the existing buildings, changing or retaining, according to need, their function, for our first home, for holidays or as a property to be rented out to the delight of many tourists.

Today we are going to Piazza Armerina, a municipality in central-eastern Sicily located in the Erei mountains at around 700 m above sea level. I must admit that I was unaware of the presence of this place and I thought it was a square in Enna and not a true natural and artistic masterpiece, known as "The city of Mosaics and the Norman Palio" or "The city of 100 churches". Our meeting is at the Duomo, the highest point in the city. From here a series of medieval streets unfold through which we wander in ecstasy, while to the right and left we are surrounded by Renaissance and Baroque buildings. A Vespa whizzing by a few steps away from us brings us back down to earth and understand that we are in the 21st century. Among these ancient buildings we identify the one where the property we are going to visit today is located, the result of a recent renovation where a large and modern apartment has been created on the first and second floors. Having crossed the threshold through an ancient and austere wooden door, an elegant staircase covered in Caltagirone marble and ceramics takes us to the first floor where the various rooms develop from the large atrium starting from the living room, the large living area with an American kitchen with a relaxation space and a splendid view where we can admire the famous Gagini balcony and finally a study room and bathroom in refined marble. The staircase that leads us to the sleeping area is another element that characterizes the entire house, marble and glass blend together in an extremely pleasant contrast between the classic and the modern. The second floor reflects the dimensions of the one below, but is different in layout and style the slope of the roof. Here we find the three rooms, one with a walk-in closet and the large bathroom finished in a more modern but no less beautiful way. What can I tell you, a few lines are not enough to describe in detail each environment and the characteristics of the materials and finishes, what we know is that if the center of Piazza Armerina is your destination your search will stop here.
