Charming design apartment in a historic farmhouse

One out of our five delicately renovated apartments located on the first floor of a charming, characterful farmhouse. It is one of the oldest buildings of a cosy little village in the Valle d’Isarco in Northern Italy. We find ourselves right in the center of sun-blessed South Tyrol, on a hilltop at the entrance of the Gardena and Funes valleys. Close to the dolomites mountains but not far away from the popular towns of Bolzano and Bressanone it is an ideal starting point to explore the region. The space The apartment is situated in a historic farmhouse under urban heritage protection. This truly unique building - characterised by its uneven walls and doors, its graceful vaults, arcs and passages - has been shaped and reshaped again throughout the centuries. The farmhouse was uninhabited for nearly thirty years before we started a very thorough renovation in 2018. We have done everything possible to preserve the invaluable historic substance. Set in a stark contrast with the historic building we have furnished the apartment with the modern, contemporary furniture of the interior design wizards from Lago.Design. The apartment no.1 is composed of four rooms. You enter the apartment through a small, strangely skewed, circular arch door and find yourself in an delightfully uneven room with a barrel vault ceiling. At the end of the room you have a beautifully designed, shining white kitchen. To your left you enter into the heart of the apartment - the living room with its unique wood panellings called “Stube”. To let our apartment number 1 shine again we have dismantled all panels, we have washed and brushed the old wood, and have then build it in again. Walking to the right from the entrance you enter the bed room. Dark brown wooden beams give this room a very special framing. Connected to the bed room is a bath room with Italian marble Pietra Piasentina, which literally means "a stone that pleases the eye”. We think its a name well deserved. The apartment is not suited for toddlers and small kids. In case you are traveling with kids, please contact us before making a reservation. Guest access After climbing an external stair case you will access the house through the main door and enter into the shared foyer on the first floor. Your apartment is on the left side of the foyer, marked as apartment no. 1. Your apartment is separated with an apartment door. You will have all rooms of the apartment to yourself, no other guest has access to the apartment's rooms. In addition to your apartment, you will also have access to a 500 square meter private garden with sitting areas, pergolas, trees and fountains. You will share the garden with the other guests of our house. Other things to note To access your apartment you will need to climb stairs. It is a historic building with no elevator. Please do not place hot pans on the kitchen surface. The surface is not heat resistant. Please do not remove shampoo, body wash, cream or detergent bottles, even if they are empty.
