Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Nestled on the eastern shore of Lake Como, this apartment boasts an enviable location just a short stroll from shops, bars, restaurants and Riva Bianca beach. Comfortable and well-equipped for four guests, just bear in mind that two will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area here. And while the curtains don’t entirely block out the light, the Italian sun streaming in is a lovely wake-up call, and just what’s needed to get you out of bed to enjoy the beauty of the surrounding area.
