Description
Immersed in the peace and beauty of Arona, at the foot of the historic Rocca Borromea Park with which it borders directly, we offer for sale a period villa from the privileged location: just ten minutes walk from Piazza del Popolo, the lakeside promenade and the elegant boutiques of Corso Cavour. Its panoramic location offers a view of the entire historic center, the famous Villa Cantoni and the sparkling waters of Lake Maggiore.
Built in the second half of the nineteenth century, the villa was carefully restored in 2005, with a further renovation of the roof completed in 2023. The interventions have respected and enhanced the historical elements of the house, such as the coffered ceilings with beams of the seventeenth century, the original Venetian marble floors from 1879 - identical to those of the Palazzo Borromeo on the Isola Bella - and the period darks cleverly preserved despite the windows have recently been replaced with double glazing in PVC of last generation.
The property is spread over three main levels for a total area of about 350 square meters, as well as balconies, veranda and a large park of 2,000 square meters.
On the ground floor there is the living room with double-sided fireplace, shared with the kitchen, a bathroom and a bright veranda overlooking the green. An internal staircase leads to a first mezzanine where there is a boiler/laundry room and a storage room.
The first floor houses the sleeping area, consisting of a double bedroom with fireplace and terrace, a single room and a third room, all with direct access to a long balcony. The bathroom, particularly large, is equipped with shower and bath. The floor also has a second independent entrance.
The second floor, completely independent and currently used as a bed & breakfast, is an apartment complete with kitchen, two bathrooms with shower, a double bedroom with balcony, a room with lake view and a third room also with balcony and panoramic view. In the basement there is a cellar.
In the large garden surrounding the villa there is a panoramic terrace with lake view and corners of absolute charm, including gazebos with ornamental colonnades in art nouveau style.
Perfect for those who want to live in a house full of history and charm, this villa is the ideal choice for those seeking proximity to the center, the lake, services and intimacy, guaranteed by the elevated position; details that make this property unique.
