Perched above Lake Como, this villa offers an unparalleled experience, boasting breathtaking views of the lake and surrounding mountains. The villa was originally built in 1909 in the Liberty style – to this day, it’s timeless and elegant. We love the private infinity pool, the pool house and its entertainment area, and the yoga and wellness room, which is carved into the cliffside. The setting is peaceful and private, giving you the chance to unwind in one of the most beautiful parts of Italy. Explore the hiking trails from Pigra, or take a water taxi from nearby Argegno and see more of the lake.
