Description

Borgo della Paglia is situated in the quaint lakeside village of Sulzano, this is located on the Brescia side of Lake Iseo and not far from the town of Iseo. This project has plenty of character features and in parts is a partial restoration of original antique church buildings, hence architecture with many arches, wrought crafted iron and stone features. The project is centrally located to the town and all the facilities such as shops, restaurants, cafes etc. It is also close to the marina and port for easy access to the boats and ferries for travel on the lake. It also affords stunning views of the lake and across the water to the Islands of San Loreto and Monte Isola.

Borgo della Paglia has a total of 42 apartments situated in several small and different buildings, all with lift service from the basement garages to the upper floors. The various buildings are surrounded by well kept and laid out gardens, many apartments offer views of the lake and large terraces. Each of the individual buildings house either 4 or 6 apartments. The apartments have large windows making them light and airy, they are spacious and provide open plan living and many have excellent views over the lake.

The development building and refurbishment was completed to a very high standard about 5 years ago, it has a large infinity pool and a solarium/sun terrace surrounded by ample open green areas from which to enjoy views of the mountains. There are only 7 apartments currently still available in this development, with either 2 or 3 bedrooms with either one or two bathrooms and a choice between a terrace or a garden.

Prices range from Euro 300,000 and up to Euro 350,000. The annual service charge for a year will be between Euro 800 to Euro 1000 and depends upon the size of apartment. Garages are also available to all buyers but are not included in the prices of the apartments as these are sold separately.

The location is not only close to the facilities of the town but also close to natural beauty areas of the mountains and the lake. Close also to many small villages and larger cities such as Bergamo which is 35 minutes drive, Brescia 20 minutes drive and Milan about 1 hour drive. Sulzano is only 10 minutes away from the Franciacorta district which is renowned for its wine production and its many gastronomic restaurants, fashionable shops and outlets and regular food festivities. On the lake itself you may enjoy sailing, wind surfing, sunbathing, trekking, bicycling, rock climbing, golf, and skiing. There is the Franciacorta Golf Course close by and there are ample great ski areas all around the area with journey times between 35 minutes to 1,5 hour from the lake, and with a great choice from small local ski areas like Montecampione and Ponte di Legno, to the renowned areas of Madonna di Campiglio and St Moritz in the Dolomites.

Management exists at the Borgo della Paglia development for holiday packages, this is a service which facilitates a buy to let service not only covering the apartments but also a boat if required. The service includes management of rentals, insurance and maintenance. Through a connection with the largest boat company on the lake a vast choice of craft and pricing can be utilized. This buy to let service gives the added potential for owners at Borgo della Paglia to realize healthy annual returns on investment.
