Set amongst the hills of the sunny north-western shore of Lake Como, in Alto Lario, in a stunning location with panoramic views of Lake Como, we are offering this fully restored, high-end detached villa, which was originally an antique ‘rustico’. The result is a contemporary fusion of architecture, landscape and well-being. A major renovation, accompanied by a substantial extension, has transformed the original building into a modern home that has retained its character, comprising light-filled interior spaces that flow seamlessly into the outdoor areas and the panoramic view. The real star of the villa is, in fact, the surrounding landscape: the sweeping view of Lake Como, where the eye follows the water’s surface and the contours of the surrounding mountains. A view that constantly changes with the light, from the early hours of the morning right through to sunset, and which becomes an integral part of the living experience. The project has preserved the rustic’s authentic character, with the original features emphasised and reinterpreted through a minimalist and refined architectural style. The stone, the textured surfaces, the large windows and the contemporary elements create a subtle balance, whilst the extension has made it possible to create a new, spacious living area, designed as the heart of the home and directly connected to the outdoor spaces. The living room, kitchen and cosy areas flow seamlessly onto terraces and gardens, creating a series of spaces where indoors and outdoors merge. The large glazed areas enhance the natural light and, above all, frame the lake as a fully-fledged architectural feature. Book an appointment to view this highly exclusive property! In addition to the living area, the project has paid particular attention to the theme of wellbeing, with a dedicated wellness area integrated into the property. Here, the swimming pool stands out for its spectacular beauty; it has been designed not only as a space for relaxation, but also as an architectural feature that characterises the entire project. The swimming pool features a glass side and base – a particularly evocative solution that allows light to shine through the water and visually connects the spaces below. The glass base effectively acts as part of the ceiling for the wellness area situated below, creating an unexpected interplay between water, architecture and space. It is a detail with a powerful impact, making the swimming pool appear to float between the sky, the lake and the house. The wellness area rounds off the project with an intimate and contemporary atmosphere, designed to offer an experience of absolute comfort without losing sight of the constant connection with the landscape. Outside, terraces, balconies and green spaces accompany the villa across its various levels, offering numerous vantage points over the lake and areas dedicated to socialising and relaxation. The layout of the property extends over several storeys, with living areas, bedrooms, studies and bathrooms arranged in such a way as to ensure both the continuity of daily life and the necessary privacy. The total living area is approximately 478 m², complemented by approximately 178 m² of terraces, 52 m² of balconies, approximately 117 m² of ancillary and utility spaces, and approximately 140 m² of garage space. The property also features spacious outdoor areas, including gardens and associated grounds, which further enhance the exclusive character of the home. The result is a villa that retains the charm and solidity of the original country house, yet transcends its boundaries through a contemporary design with an eye for proportions, the play of light and the relationship with the landscape. A home in which Lake Como is not merely a backdrop, but a constant presence: it permeates the spaces, is reflected in the water of the swimming pool, opens up from the terraces and accompanies every moment of the day. A home designed to experience Lake Como in its most authentic and, at the same time, most contemporary form, where architecture, nature and wellbeing strike a rare balance, and the sweeping views of Lake Como become an essential part of the house’s identity.
