Description

What happens when a team of designers and architects revives the remains of a wonderful historic villa, transforming it into an elegant residence with a modern concept? Quite simply... they create a masterpiece! This is the case with Villa “La Sacca” in Stresa, an elegant 480 sqm lakeside residence built after World War I by Marquise Maura Dal Pozzo d'Annone on the Piedmontese shores of Lake Maggiore. This is a major restoration and conservation project, aimed at protecting and preserving the historicity, noble character, and personality of the original building, with a smart and technological touch inspired by modern lifestyle, with large, bright spaces and cutting-edge technology. To achieve this, high-quality finishes and materials are used, such as herringbone oak parquet or Favalle beola for the floors, Carrara marble for the bathrooms, okoumé windows and doors with high thermic and acoustic insulation, home automation, heat pump heating and cooling, provision for photovoltaic panels, and a practical elevator connecting the ground floor to the first floor. The uniqueness of this impressive property is completed by the surrounding park of approximately 1,500 square meters, the 13m x 3m swimming pool with provision for heat pump heating, and the 76 square meter garage, which can be converted into a guest house. The house will be delivered by the end of December 2025 complete with interior and exterior finishes, systems, full bathrooms, swimming pool, and restored outdoor areas. The absolute quality of living is the driving force behind this project, for all those who wish to live in comfort and elegance, in a solution that combines charm and history with functionality and design.

Location: Stresa, Piedmont

Stresa is undoubtedly the most internationally known location on Lake Maggiore, one of the most visited tourist destinations in the entire Piedmont region. A city that embodies lake, mountains, and sky, as well as history and culture. Stresa is a city to be discovered in every corner and landscape, without haste. Walk through it, listen to it, admire it, and breathe it in. Choosing Stresa means loving the details. Learn to discover it by strolling through its streets and walking up the hills to admire it from above as well. A visit to the splendid Borromean Islands, which lie right in front of Stresa, will lead you to discover enchanting and fairy-tale places, with buildings and gardens emerging from the water, surrounded by mountains. Isola Bella, with its gardens and Baroque charm; Isola Madre with its lush vegetation, and Isola dei Pescatori, inhabited all year round, the smallest and full of small hotels and typical restaurants. Do not miss the magnificent Villa Pallavicino, the splendid 19th-century villa that descends from the hill to the lake and was transformed into a zoological garden in 1956; you will be catapulted into another era and another world, made of fairy-tale animals and incredible flowers. Stresa also offers a wonderful lakeside promenade and a beautiful historic center animated by charming bars, pastry shops (have you ever tasted the Margheritine of Stresa?), and typical restaurants. But Stresa also means appreciating art, cinema, and music, which is best expressed here in an internationally renowned festival that attracts tourists from all over the world during the summer. For nature lovers, moreover, Stresa and the mountains surrounding it offer a varied and beautiful area for all kinds of activities and sports, whether on land, water, or air. The municipality of Stresa includes some hilly and mountainous territories: first and foremost, Mottarone, a mountain about 1500m high that becomes a ski resort in winter and offers beautiful trekking walks in summer, interesting mountain bike trails, but also adrenaline-pumping thrills with Alpyland, a roller coaster with two-seater cars overlooking the Borromean Gulf. The eastern side hosts the Alpinia Botanical Garden, where many botanical species typical of the Alpine and subalpine areas can be found. The variety of places, scents, and colors, and the exceptionally mild climate is what makes this corner of Lake Maggiore special. A rare and precious wealth to immerse yourself in to return home filled with beauty and magic.
