Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

A comfortable apartment within an ancient and historic mansion with a great courtyard and a beautiful view on the small Brianza's lakes. The apartment is on two floors, with kitchen and living room at ground floor. Four rooms and two bathrooms are available at the first floor. In the mansion there are other four apartments sharing the same courtyard. A barbecue is available too. The mansion is placed in the historical centre of the village, facing a small and quite square.

Our apartment is placed in an old mansion and there are other apartments with other families. Here we live as “community of families”. This means that each family has its own apartment, but some parts of the mansion (e.g. the courtyard, the entrance,…) are shared with the other families. Of course, your privacy is fully respected from everybody, but you will have the chance to live close to people that will be friendly and welcoming.
