2 bedrooms semi-detached house, 180 m²

Argegno, Como (province)

Lake Como

Within the historic village of Argegno, 2 minutes' walk from the shore of Lake Como, we offer for sale a property that is part of a typical two-family lake house of the 1940s.
The property has two independent entrances, one driveway from via Schignano and one pedestrian entrance that leads to the centre of the village via a small road.
The pedestrian entrance leads into the 80 sqm garden, which is partially paved and planted with beautiful summer flowers such as oleanders, roses and various aromatic plants. Also here we have a pergola with vines and if desired, adjacent to it, a barbecue area can be created which can be enjoyed with family and friends.
Going up the external stairs, we arrive on the 50 sqm terrace that offers a beautiful view of the lake and from which we can access the habitable part of the house, about 135 sqm, which is on two levels.
On the ground floor we find a large living room with fireplace and kitchen, cellar and service bathroom.
The sleeping area is on the first floor and has two bedrooms, both with wonderful lake views and access to the large balcony, relaxation space and a windowed bathroom with tub.
In the basement, detached from the main body of the house, we find a cellar with laundry area.
There is a convenient garage less than 70 metres away.
As finishes we have in the living area cement tiles typical of the period with different geometric designs and upstairs oak parquet flooring. The bathrooms are typical of the 1990s.
The property has a lot of charm and is characteristic of the lake, but needs some modernisation work to make it an oasis of comfort.
