The living room walls are entirely painted with the "trompe-l'oeil" method, depicting the views that would be seen if there were no walls. This gives a vision of breadth. On one side is Monte Baldo, on the other is the lake with the Isola del Garda and the Rocca di Manerba. This is all framed by a pergola with roses similar to the ones outside. At the bottom are memorialized two of the family cocker spaniels, Rocky and Glenda.

The adjoining bedroom is decorated with pictures of chickens, a reminder of the time when the owner was the judge of this charming, feathered bird. And the wren? There are none here. In its place is the reproduction of a large and magnificent rooster next to the bed for the morning wake-up call. In reality it is a bit difficult to adjust the time, but with a little experience... After all, it’s not bad to get up a little late during your holiday.
The living room is furnished with a sofa bed. On one wall is a long pharmaceutical shelf. In memory of its former use, it holds some bottles that once contained spices and bearing their names. There are also some old books in various languages, not to mention four wooden carnival masks from the Val di Comelico of Alto Cadore. Hanging from a garment rack is a small collection of wooden and bamboo cages.
The furnishings are completed by an 18th century Venetian wardrobe in soft wood painted with lacquer. On one wall are two old photographs with the owner's grandfather and aunt Raffaele.
