Inside a splendid deconsecrated church we have hypothesized to exploit this magnificent space for the creation of an exclusive apartment and thanks to the renderings that have been created specifically, we would like to accompany you on a splendid imaginary journey in one of the most beautiful places in the town of Lonato del Garda.
Below we describe not only the property but also the residential complex where this church is set:
The church belongs to an ancient Franciscan convent dating back to the fourteenth century, 11 minutes from the well-known town of Desenzano del Garda and 18 minutes from the spa town of Sirmione.
The church, built in the 18th century, extends with the nave covered by a barrel vault with lunettes and divided into five bays. Wrought iron tie rods were mounted under the arches that support and stiffen the vaults, each fixed with well-visible keys on the facade. The bell tower was built near the shrine, on the northern side, and was evidently rebuilt from the eaves of the church.
The shrine, the choir and the first span of the church have remained intact. On the vaults there are frescoes, in particular of a figurative type (representations of the life of St. Francis of Assisi and other Franciscan saints). These frescoes, albeit in a questionable way, have been restored in the past.
All the vertical, horizontal and vaulted walls of the building I are sound and structurally in good condition and free from significant cracks.
Work was carried out to reconstruct the roof structure and consequently to reconstruct the roof covering.
The flooring of the common areas (parking lots and pedestrian paths) are made of river pebbles and non-slip Prun stone slabs.
The entire structure was subjected to seismic and structural improvements to make the entire complex safer.
The convent, due to its beauty and historical importance, is subject to a restriction from the Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Tourism.
Included in the exclusive garden piece.
The structure lends itself to various uses such as: residence, representative offices, concert hall, etc.
It is possible to buy 10 uncovered parking spaces in front of the garden and a double garage.
