Wake up to shimmering lake views and fall asleep under a canopy of stars, this bright, artist-owned apartment is a front-row seat to Lago Maggiore’s natural beauty. Recently renovated in cool Scandinavian style, the space blends clean lines with curated, eco-conscious details. Think recycled art pieces, handmade lighting, and vertical gardens that once graced contemporary galleries. The open-plan living area is perfect for slow days, and while only the lounge has air conditioning, the lakeside breeze does its part too. With a terrace made for sunbathing, dining and views that speak for themselves, this place is quietly unforgettable.

Home truths

  • Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There’s free parking for one car on the driveway, and additional cars on the street.

  • The en-suite bathroom in the main bedroom is very compact. At just 0.80 sqm, it’s cosy but fully functional.

  • The third bedroom is a walk-through space, so it offers less privacy than the others.

  • Only the living area has air conditioning – the bedrooms rely on fans and the natural lake breeze.

  • The host asks you to retract the awnings before heading out, to avoid damage from unexpected lake winds.

  • One well-behaved pet is welcome to accompany you during your stay.
