Art Nouveau villa with a large garden and panoramic views

Just a short walk from the historic funicular linking the centre of Como to Brunate stands this charming Art Nouveau villa, which retains all the charm and elegance of early 20th-century architecture. The finely decorated façade, the characteristic arched portico and the spacious terraces overlooking the lush garden, with partial views of the lake and the surrounding mountains, all reflect the distinctive character of this property, surrounded by tranquility and nature. Built in the early 20th century, the villa is spread over three levels and is surrounded by a beautiful private park of approximately 4,000 square metres, from which one can enjoy a stunning unobstructed view of the Alps. Over the years, the property has undergone renovation and maintenance work, including a major restoration in 2004, which involved the refurbishment of the roof and façade. Subsequently, the gas heating system with radiators was also upgraded and the boiler replaced. The windows are wooden with double glazing. The main floor features an elegant entrance hall, a spacious living room and a further lounge area with direct access to the large terrace, ideal for enjoying pleasant moments of relaxation outdoors. The floor is completed by a bathroom and a delightful study, which is particularly charming thanks to its large windows and wooden bookcases, creating a cosy space full of character. The upper floor comprises the sleeping area, consisting of four spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms, two of which are en suite. Serving this floor is a second large south-facing terrace, accessible from both one of the bedrooms and the corridor, offering a pleasant view of the nature. The basement houses two cellar rooms, the boiler room, a further bathroom and a spacious garage. The villa retains valuable original architectural features that emphasise its historical identity and authentic character: the garden portico, which offers the possibility of creating additional rooms; the façade’s decorative elements; the high ceilings; the parquet flooring; the bow windows; and the large glazed areas, which flood the rooms with light and create a continuous connection between the interior spaces and the surrounding landscape.
