Country house at Lago Maggiore. Why you should buy one.

Stresa, Angera and Arona: three beautiful towns at Lago Maggiore. Being so famous, they usually attract a lot of tourists every year, as well as buyers, coming here with the aim to settle down. 


We experience many crucial moments in our life, such as the graduation, the fulfilment of a love, the birth of a child. But there are also moments when we take decisions impulsively, driven by some sort of a sudden awareness, such as buying a big country house on Lake Maggiore

Moving on the shores of the second biggest Italian Lake has really become a necessity. This can be easily seen from the number of Italian families and foreign buyers who choose to live in a villa Lago Maggiore

But what makes this place so special? Lago Maggiore, also called Lago Verbano, is a stretch of water surrounded by the emerald green dense vegetation and the bright blue sky. Fragrant pine trees, centuries-old woods and great mountains reflect on its water. It’s a real paradise on earth, where you can spot here and there wonderful properties overlooking the Lake, Villas, as well as loads of houses for sale waiting for you.


STRESA WONDERS


You can also find this wonderful landscape in Stresa, on the Piedmontese shore of the Lake, which is really famous for its colourful and fragrant gardens of azaleas and alpine roses. 


This town is especially crowded in Spring, when a lot of tourists take long walks along its promenade and flock its monuments and parks. Among these, you find Parco Villa Pallavicino, an English garden with Lake view, the Borromean Islands (Isola Bella, Isola Madre e Isola Pescatori, with its characteristic village).

ANGERA AND THE “ISOLINO DEI VOLATILI”


Our walk proceeds along the promenade of Angera, far from the busy roads. In this quiet place you can admire the Isolino di Partegora, in the middle of the splendid bay of Lago Maggiore, formerly called “gora”. Somebody thinks it is just a cliff: a rock emerged from the water and covered with soil and plants. Others think it is a priceless treasure, which has to be preserved. It’s here that different species of birds nest during summer: coots, swans, mallards, as well as herons and cormorants. 


There is no way you can resist the charm of Angera and its beautiful houses for sale Lago Maggiore


THE SPORTY SIDE OF ARONA


You could think that living at the lake only means enjoying quietness and relax, admiring islets and taking long walks. The truth is, the lake is perfect also for many other sports, such as hang-gliding, canoeing, windsurfing, paragliding and trekking. That is especially true for Arona, which is one of the major trade and tourist centre of Lago Maggiore. Thanks to that, it offers a lot of opportunities for sport lovers and those who enjoy the outdoor life. 


Just a little piece of advice: don’t miss the trek up to Rocca di Arona! Here you can enjoy an extraordinary view of the Lake, as well as cooling off while sipping a tasty aperitif at the bar at its top.  


Engel & Völkers offers different apartments for sale in Arona. You can’t really miss them!
