Nestled on the water's edge of Lake Como, this grand adults-only apartment boasts dreamy views and elegant interiors. From here, you're just a short stroll from shops, bars, restaurants and Riva Bianca beach. But the real standout here is your two private terraces, offering idyllic vistas over the lake and an alfresco dining area. On top of that, there's a communal swimming pool for refreshing afternoon dips. The home itself is beautifully shaped with frescoed ceilings and ornate furnishings that create a special place to relax and hang out after busy days spent outside exploring. And, if you're looking to venture further afield, the home comes with private parking for two cars.
