Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Just a short stroll from the lake, this home in the town of Como is a cosy spot for families or two couples. The small garden is inviting for barbeques, and the wooden ceiling and skylight in the bedroom are nice touches. There's plenty of sunlight here too, which is both a blessing and a curse –the light curtains may mean an early wake-up call in the mornings. That said, it offers plenty of incentive to get up early and explore the local area.

Home truths
The bedroom is on the mezzanine level and semi-open to the space below, so privacy is limited. At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area downstairs.
The bathroom is an ensuite for the main bedroom, meaning guests downstairs will need to enter this bedroom to have a wash. However, there is a WC here too.
The curtains in the living space here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.
There are other apartments nearby here. Expect to bump into neighbours as you are coming and going.
