Description

Nel the prestigious and leafy Montello district in Varese, an exclusive sale is offered of a charming and articulated property that masterfully blends period architectural style with modern, generous volumes. The property, surrounded by a well-kept private garden with tall trees, is distinguished by exceptional modularity. The building currently comprises three apartments: two within the main central structure and one independent in the detached guesthouse. A flexible layout, offering ample scope for reconfiguration to suit any residential or design requirement. The exterior of the main building retains all the charm of its historic character, enhanced by elegant decorative friezes along the eaves band, refined window surrounds, and period balconies. The entire structure underwent a careful restoration in 2023, including the complete replacement of the roof. On the ground floor, the villa opens onto a magnificent modern architectural extension, characterized by solid pillars and large full-height windows that provide total visual continuity with the surrounding park and flood the interiors with light. The interiors on this level feature hexagonal terracotta flooring and substantial exposed wooden beams. The true focal point of this space is the immense kitchen area, dominated by a striking, monumental copper hood, finely embossed. The entire majestic glazed area and the large kitchen with its distinctive copper hood are currently registered in the land registry as commercial premises. This feature gives the property extraordinary potential both for launching exclusive activities (showroom, catering, event venue) and for a possible future change of use to an extremely luxurious residential destination. The upper floors of the main structure house the residential spaces of the first two apartments. Here there are extremely bright rooms, with functional hallways and access to a large paved terrace, perfect for enjoying outdoor living. The top attic level offers intimate and welcoming atmospheres, enhanced by sloping wooden ceilings with skylights. The third residential unit is located in the structure detached from the main building, finished in exposed stone and plaster, ideal as a guesthouse, accommodation for service staff, or to ensure complete independence for a family member. The property is completed by a double garage/parking box and a large storage room.

Location: Olgiate Olona, Lombardy

The city of Varese lies on the shores of the lake of the same name. It is called the Garden City thanks to the many beautiful private and public gardens within the municipality. Varese is in a distinctive location, at the foot of the Sacro Monte di Varese, which has astronomical significance. Varese rests on seven hills: San Pedrino Hill (402 m), Giubiano Hill (407 m), Campigli Hill (453 m), Sant'Albino Hill (406 m), Biumo Superiore Hill (439 m), Montalbano Hill (411 m) and Miogni Hill (492 m). The municipal territory therefore ranges between 238 and 1,150 metres above sea level. Varese’s winter is only slightly affected by the moderating influence of Lake Maggiore and the other smaller lakes in the province. Late-autumn and winter minimum temperatures frequently fall, even if only by a few degrees, below freezing. It is precisely the low night-time temperatures that create a climate different from areas south of this city. As in other Lombardy pre-Alpine cities, fog is a relatively rare phenomenon. Since 1960, it has been home to the only Italian campus of the European School, created for the children of European officials of the Joint Research Centre. Milan Malpensa and Lugano-Agno airports are about 30 minutes away. The shores of Lake Maggiore can be reached in 20 minutes by car.
