A rare opportunity! Charming Alpine style brand new Villetta situated on the banks of Lake Arvo with stunning and uninterrupted views of the Lake and mountains. This attached luxury villa is located in the village of Lorica in the heart of the Sila National Park in Central Calabria, an area only really known and loved by Italians. Recently completed and tastefully furnished, this villa is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a luxury property in the heart of unspoilt Italy in a tranquil area of outstanding natural beauty, where the building of new properties is strictly limited. The sleepy village of Lorica hugs the northern shores of Lake Arvo, with local shops, bars and restaurants. It is a popular destination for Italians in the summer months who visit the area for holidays and local festivals, whilst in the winter months of January � March, the locals enjoy ski-ing � the ski-lift being just a 5 minute drive from Lorica village. The area is famous for its Porcini mushrooms, and in the autumn months you can always see local Calabrese armed with their baskets gathering this wild delicacy. This is a fantastic place for people who love, peace, quiet and nature. You can walk or hike the mountain tracks, spot the local black squirrels, fish for trout in the Lake (local licence required), explore the old towns of San Giovanni in Fiore (25 mins drive) or the spectacular Santa Severina with is castle perched high above the village (45 mins). The Tyrrhenian coast (west) with its bustling seaside towns is just an hour drive as are the unspoilt beaches of the Ionian Coast on Calabrias east coast. Lamezia Terme Airport is 1hr15mins drive, and served by Ryanair from Stansted, or Easyjet from Milan with connecting flights from Gatwick and other regional UK airports. There is an airport at Crotone, on the eastern side, 1 hour drive, and it is hoped after its current refurbishment, it will re-open to international flights.
