Description
There are residences that hold a special atmosphere, capable of telling a story without the need for words. Villa Vicario, built in the early 1900s in Lurate Caccivio, is one of these. Protected by a flat park of over nine thousand square meters with centuries-old trees, the villa presents itself as a refuge of elegance and privacy, a short distance from Como, the Swiss border, and Milan. Anyone who passes through its gate immediately perceives the dialogue between past and present: the villa extends for about eight hundred square meters over four levels connected by a period main staircase and a secondary one for service staff. The interiors preserve the original elegance, enhanced by high decorated ceilings and wooden paneling, enriched by targeted restorations that have made the residence functional. After a conservative restoration in 2005, the attic was redeveloped in 2019, and in 2022 the interiors, terrace, and garden were renovated, introducing modern comforts without affecting the historic soul of the house. The ground floor opens with a scenic entrance, a large living room with a fireplace, a cozier sitting room, a study, a guest bathroom, and an eat-in kitchen opening onto a panoramic terrace of about fifty square meters with a Jacuzzi. Completing the floor is a guest toilet and a service toilet for the staff. The dining room, also with a fireplace, visually interacts with the park, creating continuity between inside and outside. On the first floor, the master sleeping area includes four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including the main suite with a walk-in closet and private bathroom with a double crystal shower. The attic houses two independent apartments, one for the staff and one for guests. The basement hosts a tavern with billiards and a bar, a wellness area with a Turkish bath, double showers, and a Jacuzzi, a wine cellar, and a laundry room, in addition to the completely automated facilities center. There is also a toilet for the Turkish bath area. The property is equipped with advanced security systems, and the park, maintained by automatic irrigation and a robotic lawn mower, retains perfect natural beauty. Villa Vicario represents a unique residence, where historical charm meets contemporary technologies, ideal both as a main residence and as an exclusive vacation home.
