Our Corner of Paradise

Sulzano – Lake Iseo – Clive and Gina – ‘Our Corner of Paradise’

Project Manager:- Geom. Pierangelo Crespi

Architect:- Sara Ugazio

Team Co-ordinator:- Madeleine Morgan

Description of Works:- 

The building is an ancient monastery from the 16th century located directly on Lake Iseo in Sulzano, Lake Iseo.

The entire monastery complex has recently been converted into a residence of holiday homes and is still protected by specific regulations for the preservation of buildings of historical interest.

The ancient vaults that characterise the entire flat could not be touched by masonry or furnishings.   The client’s style was modern and minimalist and they wanted to have a comfortable living room and kitchen area with the warmth of the old fireplace and the modernity of custom-made lighting systems.

The master bedroom has modern furniture designed and handcrafted to measure. The equipment and the walk-in wardrobe divide the sleeping area from the relaxation area.

The original flooring has been retained and recovered in the design of the new house.  We relied on local craftsmen to create the chandeliers and furniture for the bedroom, which the client designed himself (being an architect) but supervised by Pier and Sara. We installed new flooring and tiling in the new bathroom, as well as creating new plumbing and wiring, we bought the bathroom and accessories locally.   The kitchen was created by local craftsmen, in order to adapt it, we had to close a wall rewiring and reconnect the new spaces.

Highly recommended, we bought our property in 2016 and we still use Madeleine for all her contacts and help for new work. If we bought again I wouldn't go anywhere else.

From start to finish dealing with Madeleine was fantastic. We didn't buy our property from Madeleine but she used all her years of experience in the Italian market to help us secure our dream home and provided great consultancy services. Great advice and always available to answer the smallest questions Madeleine made us fell like family.

We had been looking for an apartment in Italy for some years, when we met Madeleine. We quickly found the perfect location and apartment in Predore, by Lake Iseo. All the way through the process, from first showing of the apartment, to signing of the contract at the notary's, Madeleine has been of great help! She was always available for questions and concerns, which she still is. Since we took over the apartment, Madeleine has been such an amazing help in relation to translation when agreeing with contractors, planning of renovation of kitchen, visits to IKEA etc. Madeleine never says no to help you, which is really comforting when buying an apartment in a foreign country. Madeleine gets our warmest recommendations, if you want to buy an apartment, or a house in Italy.

Madeleine Morgan weiß genau, was sie tut und hat sehr viel Erfahrung. Sie ist äußerst professionell und vertrauenswürdig, ehrlich und transparent. Auf Fragen und Anliegen hat sie immer schnell und zuverlässig reagiert. Selbst wenn Schwierigkeiten bzw. Missverständnisse auftraten, blieb Madeleine immer ruhig und gelassen. Sie hat äußerst geduldig Sachverhalte - bei Bedarf auch immer wieder - erklärt. Madeleine tut weit mehr, als sie müsste, denn auch nach Abschluss des eigentlichen Kaufvertrages organisiert sie zusammen mit ihrer Kollegin Cristina alles, was noch erledigt werden muss, wie z.B. den Abschluss einer Versicherung oder die Anmeldung von Strom, Gas und Wasser, was übrigens in Italien zu einem äußerst komplizierten und langwierigen Prozedere werden kann...
