In the heart of Lake Trasimeno, on the enchanting Isola Maggiore, within the historic fishing village, this charming stone-built property of approximately 110 sqm, in need of renovation, is situated at ground-floor level and benefits from an independent entrance.
The property retains the authentic charm of the island's traditional architecture. The main living accommodation is situated at ground-floor level in relation to the access road and is reached through a characteristic covered loggia. Internally, it comprises a kitchen, dining room, two bedrooms and a bathroom.
On the lower level, which corresponds to ground-floor level on the garden side, there are two additional storage rooms serving the main accommodation. Thanks to the natural slope of the land, which lies below the level of the access road, both floors are above ground on their respective sides of the building.
The roof of the building was renovated in 2010, an improvement that represents a significant advantage when planning the future refurbishment of the property.
One of the most attractive features of this property is its private lakefront land of approximately 1,000 sqm, enhanced by fruit trees and flowering ornamental plants, creating a delightful green space surrounded by nature. The property also benefits from a private boat landing, a particularly valuable feature offering an exclusive opportunity to enjoy the lake.
The location offers enchanting views of Lake Trasimeno and an atmosphere of absolute peace and tranquillity, in a setting rich in history and character.
Isola Maggiore is one of the three natural islands of Lake Trasimeno, in Umbria, and forms part of the municipality of Tuoro sul Trasimeno, in the province of Perugia. Covering approximately 24 hectares, with a perimeter of around 2 km, the island is a small natural and architectural gem, characterised by a historic fishing village that stretches along the picturesque Via Guglielmi, starting from the ferry landing.
The island is connected to the mainland by ferry services to Tuoro sul Trasimeno, Passignano sul Trasimeno and Castiglione del Lago. A network of walking paths allows visitors to explore the island, passing through lush Mediterranean vegetation, including olive trees, holm oaks, pines, cypresses and many other native species.
Despite its name, Isola Maggiore is not the largest of Lake Trasimeno's three islands: Isola Polvese is the largest, followed by Isola Maggiore, while Isola Minore is the smallest.
A rare property with excellent potential, ideal for those wishing to restore and enhance a home full of authentic character, complete with private land and direct access to the lake, in one of the most charming and picturesque locations in Umbria.
