The "Isola Verde" new development is located in the Isola district, a very sought-after area and center of interest for the city's creative talents and artists, near the prestigious skyscrapers of Porta Nuova. This redevelopment project regards a production area of Milan where only the original facades of the building remain intact. The project is eco-friendly: CO2 emissions are reduced because the hot/cold air conditioning system works through a geothermal system with heat pumps and radiant floor panels; it also generates electricity through solar panels and reuses rainwater for irrigation. The temperature of each single room can be adjusted and accounted for individually. Windows also contribute to energy savings, which are characterized by thermal aluminum profiles and low-emissivity glass, so as to ensure a building envelope with low energy consumption. The individual housing units enjoy private green spaces and common services, such as a fitness area and bicycle storage. There is also a coworking space with 40 seats.
This apartment is on two levels. On the ground floor, there is a large living room with a dining area plus an open kitchen overlooking the private garden of about 24 sqm facing east. The large windows create continuity with the garden making it a real outdoor living room. On the same floor there is also a bathroom. An internal staircase leads to the first floor where there are two double bedrooms, both with their own bathroom and overlooking the greenery. Cellar of about 8 sqm and garage (listed separately).
