We are pleased to offer this 2 bedroom house with lake view located in the centre of Carate Urio, some 12km north of Como town and less than an hour from Milan airports. The house provides about 100m2 of accommodation on four floors. The ground floor entrance at the front of the house leads to one large room used as storage and also boiler/laundry room. The first floor has an entrance to the rear and a guest bedroom with bathroom and closet. On the second floor there is a bright open plan living room with fitted kitchen to view and exit onto balcony with lake views. Stairs lead to the third floor with master bedroom, bathroom with bath and small balcony overlooking the courtyard as well as a mezzanine which can be used as a study or further room for guests. The house was renovated in 2017, including roof, all windows, kitchen and both bathrooms as well as the electric and heating systems whilst parquet flooring was laid in all rooms except bathrooms which are laid in ceramic. The house is being sold furnished, and is ideal for a property close to all services with a grocery store and bank just a few steps away, whilst Cernobbio and Como are easily reached in a few minutes. Excellent property for personal use or even to provide rental income.

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.
