Overlooking Lake Como and occupying the site of a former medieval watchtower, the Villa commands one of the finest views in Europe.
The liberty style villa, built in 1909, has been fully restored to exceptional standards, offering 1,231 sqm of living space.
This includes: 8 double bedrooms (6 ensuite); drawing room; living room; dining room; kitchen; study; media room, bar; 2 roof terraces, yoga/wellness room; pool house and entertainment area.
At 881 metres above the lake and with no immediate neighbours, the villa is an oasis of calm. Yet the
pretty perched mountain village of Pigra is only 300 metres away and the popular lakeside village of
Argegno can be reached within 4 minutes from the cable car station located 500 metres from the
villa gates.
Pigra has a couple of restaurants and is a perfect base for hiking and mountain biking.
Argegno provides a wide range of restaurants, our own private boat mooring and a scheduled river taxi
service, ideal for exploring all that Lake Como has to offer.
The views from south facing Villa are truly stunning – a combination of wide blue lake and green mountain vistas, rounded off with glorious golden sunsets. These can be enjoyed from the balconies off every bedroom, the villa’s main surround terrace and the extraordinary pool house with its green roof and infinity pool. Also making the most of this aspect are an exceptional yoga/wellness room that has been carved out of the cliff face and the roof top terraces, bar and entertainment area.
The villa sits in lush gardens of 4.5 acres offering the peace and tranquility that is so difficult to find on Lake Como.
The Villa located just 75 minutes drive from Milan Malpensa International Airport and 60
minutes from Lugano International Airport.
