18th-Century Manor House with Exclusive Botanical Garden and View of Monte Isola – Lake Iseo
Located directly on Lake Iseo, with a splendid view of Monte Isola, we offer for sale a prestigious 18th-century Manor House. Nestled in a unique setting, it boasts a rare botanical garden of over 22,000 square meters, created and cared for over time by the renowned Italian botanist Dr. Fenaroli.
The villa, approximately 1,500 square meters, is spread over three levels and boasts large frescoed halls and bright lakefront windows. The main residence, measuring 1,180 square meters, is composed as follows:
Ground floor: grand entrance hall, three halls with internal heights ranging from 2.80 to 3.65 meters, large porch, and panoramic lakefront veranda.
First floor: elegant living room, two studies, a library with reading room, five bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a splendid veranda with lakefront terrace.
Second floor: two large attic rooms (heights ranging from 1.50 to 3.00 meters), ideal for creating additional rooms or accessory spaces.
The property is in good overall condition, although it requires conservative restoration work and a complete overhaul of the systems. The villa is currently not equipped with a heating system.
