Colverde, Como (provins)

In Colverde, set within a verdant landscape just a few kilometers from the center of Como, BHHS Palazzo Estate presents for sale an elegant and distinguished apartment located within the historic Villa Odescalchi, dating back to the 17th century. The villa represents an exemplary instance of the architectural style typical of noble residences in the region.

The apartment occupies the second and top floor of the villa, overlooking the communal courtyard and the surrounding lush scenery, extending to the distant mountain ranges. Access to the property is via the original staircase, leading to a landing shared with another residential unit.

Arranged on a single level, the residence comprises a generous living area with an open-plan kitchen, featuring an internal staircase that ascends to a private second living room overlooking the main living space. The master bedroom is complemented by a walk-in closet and an elegantly appointed bathroom.

Villa Odescalchi, divided into a limited number of residential units, offers shared spaces of considerable charm, including reception salons, outdoor areas, and an ample laundry facility. The property also includes a private garage of approximately 30 sqm (323 sq.ft.).

Colverde is situated a short distance from Como (approx. 10 minutes) and about 50 minutes from Milan Malpensa and Milan Linate airports. The village preserves its historical and rural character. In the 17th century, it was an agricultural center comprising four principal farmhouses – Cassina al Monte (also known as Cassina Rodiani and Ronco di Sopra), Madonna S. Chiesa di Sopra, Prevella, and Rocca di Sotto – and five mills: Molinell, Peverell, Galett, Zeppett, and Faustin.

It was a fief of the Raimondi family, who levied taxes on salt, meat, and wine, while other noble families, including the Odescalchi, Franchi, and Rusca, held property in the area. Principal local products included cereals, chestnuts, and mulberry leaves.

The location provides numerous outdoor pursuits, including walks immersed in nature, excursions along nearby mountain trails, and cultural visits to neighboring historic villages. Colverde offers essential services, artisanal shops, restaurants, and cafés, making it a refined setting for those seeking a life steeped in history, tranquility, and convenience.

The property also benefits from proximity to Lake Como, renowned for its picturesque waterfront, leisure activities, and cultural landmarks, enhancing both lifestyle and recreational opportunities.
