Menaggio, Como (provins)

Comosjön

There are properties that offer lake views. There are properties that offer character. And then there are those rare homes that feel inseparable from the place they inhabit.

Hidden within the ancient heart of Loveno di Menaggio, one of Lake Como's most authentic and historically rich villages, this remarkable village residence is one of those places. A home shaped by centuries of life, carefully restored to preserve its original soul while offering the comfort and practicality of contemporary living.

Behind its understated façade lies a surprisingly generous world of private terraces, original stonework, historic architectural details, wine cellars, fireplaces, and sun-filled living spaces overlooking the lake, Bellagio and the surrounding mountains. Today, the property successfully combines a private residence with a boutique hospitality business, creating a rare opportunity for those seeking not only a home, but a lifestyle.

Unlike many properties around the lake that have been extensively altered over time, this residence retains a genuine sense of authenticity. Every level reveals carefully preserved original features, thoughtfully integrated into a restoration that respects the building's heritage while making it effortlessly ready to enjoy from day one.

The ground floor welcomes guests through an elegant entrance leading to a series of inviting communal spaces. Here, a beautifully designed kitchen with dining area serves as the heart of the home, complemented by a fitness room, a spacious storage area, and a charming wine cellar currently used as a tasting room for family, friends, and guests. Throughout the level, original details and authentic materials create an atmosphere of timeless character.

The first floor hosts a self-contained apartment featuring a bright kitchen and dining area overlooking the peaceful parkland behind the property, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. A spacious terrace, adorned with greenery and relaxation areas, extends the living space outdoors. Adjacent to the terrace, an additional room currently serves as a lounge with fireplace and large dining table. This versatile space could easily become a third bedroom, studio, or independent guest suite with the addition of a bathroom.

A convenient guest WC is located on the mezzanine level.

Ascending further, the second floor accommodates another independent apartment comprising a kitchen and dining area, two bedrooms, and a spectacular lake-view terrace. Bathed in sunlight throughout the day and enjoying complete privacy, this outdoor space is undoubtedly one of the property's most captivating features, offering breathtaking views across the lake towards Bellagio and the surrounding mountains.

The upper floor is currently occupied by the owners and serves as the principal residence. It features a spacious living room, a traditional balcony running along the entire façade and connecting the entrance to the living areas, a separate kitchen, one bedroom, and one bathroom. Above, a generous attic provides excellent storage space.

What truly distinguishes this property is its authenticity. Original architectural details, generous proportions, and the intimate atmosphere of a historic Lake Como village combine to create a residence of rare character. Ready for immediate occupancy, it offers an increasingly difficult balance to find: historic charm without compromise, substantial living space, privacy, and flexibility of use.

The location is equally remarkable. The vibrant lakeside piazza of Menaggio can be reached on foot in approximately 16 minutes, while public parking is conveniently located just 30 metres from the property. The residence enjoys proximity to some of Loveno's most significant cultural landmarks, including Villa Vigoni and the historic home associated with Alessandro Volta. Charming local establishments, including La Magnolia and the recently opened Passer Bistrot, are just moments away.

For nature lovers, a network of scenic walking paths begins virtually at the doorstep, including pleasant routes leading to the ancient mills and riverside landscapes that can be reached within approximately fifteen minutes on foot.

A unique and versatile Lake Como residence where history, hospitality, and contemporary comfort coexist in perfect harmony.
