Picturesque villa overlooking the lake
Built in 1911 by a Milanese family Villa del Conte is a luxury holiday residence set on a hillside, located on the western shore of Lake Como between Laglio (where George Clooney has his villa) and Tremezzo. The location is stunning: from the villa, one can see across from the headland of Bellagio to the north pre-Alps and as far as Nesso to the south. In front of the villa, there is the classic San Sisinnio church that has been represented in a Winston Churchill watercolor painted from the garden of the villa.
Argegno, just down the hill (2.5 km), is a favorite destination on Lake Como. The ancient center of the village with it´s narrow walkways is picturesque. It has restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and pubs and a hydrofoil and tourist boat connect Argegno to Como, Bellaggio and other destinations on the lake. From Argegno you can take a cable car up to Pigra and the Argegno-Cima della Duaria conservation area - situated on a plateau with beautiful views of the lake and the mountains. Argegno has an abundance of opportunities for outdoor recreation including hiking, horseback riding, golf, and tennis. Day trips can include Lugano in Switzerland, and Milan.
The property was fully restored in 2012, while preserving original details and materials. Marble and terracotta floors, ironworks and decorations date to 1911. The mix of modern Italian design and antique paintings and statues creates a refined atmosphere.
