There are plenty of trails for trekking suitable for everyone around Lake Monate, and for cycling enthusiasts, the nearby Lake Comabbio offers a 28-kilometre-long cycle path that runs around its entire perimeter.


In general, in the Lake Monate area, it is possible to do outdoor activities such as walking, hiking, cycling, sailing and windsurfing, and a wide choice of restaurants and cafés allow you to sample the local cuisine and wines.

A villa that perfectly reflects the atmosphere of Lake Monate: comfort, elegance, relaxation, leisure time, plenty of indoor and outdoor space, but also the convenience of being close to the major centres of northern Italy and Malpensa airport. It is the ideal villa for families, even large ones.


It is located in Travedona, one of the municipalities of Lake Monate. The villa's calling card is a beautiful driveway that immediately gives us a glimpse of the finely planted, flat garden. With a size of about 1,500 square metres, it is the ideal place to build a swimming pool.

On the upper floor is a flat with kitchen, bathroom, double bedroom, living room and a spacious covered terrace. Access to this unit can be gained either internally from the lower floor or externally, thus also allowing for a certain degree of independence.
