Pure spectacle: by opening the large full-wall French window in the living room, you find yourself directly on the veranda, with the possibility of jumping into your private pool or relaxing in the solarium. Your gaze first embraces the large garden dotted with brightly coloured ornamental plants, then the entire lake including Montisola, the largest lake island in southern Europe and a dream holiday location. Nature is your main neighbour, the whole area is residential and convenient to facilities. In ten minutes you are at the lake, the medieval hamlet of Riva di Solto with its modern restaurants and bistros awaits you.
Living by the lake in relaxation
Spending days in front of shores of timeless charm awakens a poetic nature fuelled by the contrast between the calm waters and the majesty of the surrounding peaks, by the preponderance of nature over man and, in the evening, by the lights emerging from the horizon. You disconnect from the world to lose yourself in the silence and leave behind the satisfaction of desires to make room for the fulfilment of the senses. You are in a residential area two minutes away from the facilities of Solto Collina and ten minutes from the lake, then you are surrounded by greenery, the frontal lake view is phenomenal, in the private swimming pool of almost 30 sqm you can install a comfortable hydro-massage and in the garden of over 400 sqm you can alternate evergreens, Mediterranean scrub and flowers of all kinds. The careful design and the use of eco-sustainable materials with high thermal-acoustic insulation allow your villa to be A3 rated for energy efficiency.

The maze of narrow streets that make up the ancient centre of Riva di Solto dates back to the 13th century. The atmosphere is that of a timeless place, with the very old houses restored and furnished in the austere and simple style of industrious villages, the green spaces populated by firs and Mediterranean pines, the boats of the last fishermen moored directly in the most curious corners. Just beyond, the main square opens up to elegant bistros and aperitif bars, wine bars and boutiques. From the pier, it is possible to board a boat for a suggestive visit to the many sights in the surrounding area: from Montisola to the pyramids of Zone, from the Marone cycle path to the Sebino Peat Bogs, from the worldliness of Sarnico to the Franciacorta wine cellars. On leaving the town in the direction of Lovere, the coast road turns into a stretch that is, to say the least, stunning: the mountain curls in on itself in the Bogn gorge, generating continuous changes of direction, passages under natural arches and exposed curves close to the lake.
