This modern apartment is in a residential area in the picturesque village of Fiumelatte on Lake Como. From this setting, you can explore the towns and villages lining Lake Como – the historic centre of Varenna is 2 kilometres away, and you can catch a ferry to Bellagio and Menaggio from 3 kilometres away. The star of the show here is the large terrace, where you can admire lake views, dine alfresco, and revel in the tranquillity. At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on a sofa bed in the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space, so those seeking more privacy might prefer to stick to a guest count of four.
