Description
On Lake Como, BHHS Palazzo Estate is pleased to present this distinguished villa with a private pool, nestled within a lush Mediterranean garden of ca. 4,900 sqm (52,743 sq.ft.), offering an atmosphere of serenity, privacy, and natural beauty. The property is positioned on an elevated promontory above the hamlet of Piona, commanding an open, evocative view over the waters of Lake Como and the surrounding alpine foothills.
The villa unfolds across a level of approx. 280 sqm (approx. 3,014 sq.ft.), with bright and expansive interiors designed to harmonize with the outdoors. The main living area opens onto a veranda with floor-to-ceiling windows, enveloped by mature vegetation, creating a tranquil and welcoming space ideal for rest and contemplation. Both the dining area and the kitchen enjoy direct access to the garden, benefiting from optimal orientation.
The sleeping quarters include a primary bedroom with en-suite bathroom, a second double bedroom with a private bath, a study, a guest bathroom, and a third bedroom with an additional dedicated bathroom—offering flexibility and comfort for both residents and guests. A defining architectural feature is the expansive flat rooftop, designed as a panoramic terrace with a 360-degree view over the lake and surrounding mountains. This elevated vantage point provides an exceptional setting from which to appreciate the ever-changing light of sunrise and sunset over the water.
On the lower level, the property features a garage of approximately 90 sqm (approx. 968 sq.ft.), with capacity for two to three vehicles, in addition to utility rooms, a laundry area, and ancillary spaces. Adjacent to the main residence, a private swimming pool with an accessory structure further enriches the estate. The Mediterranean-inspired garden showcases a wide variety of botanical species, aromatic shrubs, and ornamental trees, thoughtfully arranged to complement the natural topography and enhance the sense of immersion in nature.
An additional asset is the presence of a buildable plot within the estate, allowing for the construction of a second villa or multiple residential units, with a total permitted volume of approximately 1,125 sqm (approx. 12,109 sq.ft.). This feature elevates the property not only as a private residence of notable charm, but also as a compelling investment opportunity.
Strategically located within the municipality of Pianello del Lario—an authentic lakeside village that preserves the traditions and charm of the Lombardy region—the villa offers convenient access to both essential amenities and leisure activities. The area is well-suited for lakeside walks, hiking in the surrounding woodlands, water sports, and moments of quiet retreat in the picturesque settings characteristic of the western shore of Lake Como.
The residence enjoys efficient road connectivity to the most renowned towns of the lake. Milan Malpensa and Milan Linate airports are reachable in approximately 70 and 90 minutes respectively, while Bergamo Orio al Serio Airport is located about one hour away, ensuring ease of travel both nationally and internationally.
