From the agent: "In the spectacular and romantic setting of Morimondo, which can be traced back to the 13th century, and a short distance from Milan. Sophisticated deconsecrated church of approximately 4,843 square feet with private garden. Although the interiors have been adapted to a pleasant and functional residence, they have kept the historical charm of the original building. The property is on three levels; the most significant one is the ground floor, from where one can better appreciate the internal heights and the beautiful architectural finishes. Via a spiral staircase, one can access the magnificent bell tower where, thanks to its panoramic position, it is possible to enjoy a breathtaking view of the surrounding countryside in complete privacy."
