Description
In Cernobbio, within the prestigious street “Strettoia”, BHHS Palazzo Estate is delighted to present an elegant terra–cielo (townhouse) residence dating back to the late 19th century. This street is known for its luxury boutiques and refined shops along the road leading to Villa d’Este and the shores of Lake Como.
The property, fully furnished, underwent a meticulous architectural restoration in 2022 that preserved its historical character while harmoniously integrating contemporary elements. The residence, with an overall surface of approximately 245 sqm (2,637 sq.ft.), is arranged over three levels and comprises three independent apartments. The renovation was carried out using premium materials, including wide-plank hardwood flooring, mosaic-tiled bathrooms, and artisanal detailing that highlights the building’s original identity. The bespoke furnishings, selected with care from renowned design collections, are included in the sale price.
Through the original entrance gate, one accesses the common staircase connecting the three residential floors. On the first level, an approximately 20 sqm (215 sq.ft.) studio apartment features a kitchenette and a bathroom, ideal as a private workspace or a charming pied-à-terre.
The second level, measuring about 145 sqm (1,561 sq.ft.), hosts a bright and elegant apartment. Its living area, enhanced by fine boiserie paneling and a custom-made teak kitchen inspired by Riva motorboats, opens onto a small terrace offering morning light and views of Mount Bisbino. The apartment includes a master bedroom and a spacious bathroom adorned with mosaic finishes.
On the top floor, of approximately 80 sqm (861 sq.ft.), lies another apartment comprising a generous living room with an open-plan kitchen and access to the terrace, two bedrooms, one of which is a master with an en-suite bathroom, and a second bathroom, both characterized by refined mosaic finishes.
There is the possibility to install a small elevator without requiring excavation works. The property is completed by two garages located just a few meters from the main entrance.
The layout of the interiors offers multiple possibilities: a refined private residence for those seeking an exclusive and discreet living environment, a vacation home to enjoy moments of tranquility on the lake, or a valuable real estate investment, given the strong demand for short-term and seasonal rentals in the area.
Cernobbio, a renowned destination on the western shore of Lake Como, is celebrated for the charm of its historic village and for hosting the world-famous Grand Hotel Villa d’Este.
