Exclusive historic residence steps from the lake

This extraordinary historic residence from the early 1900s is located in Lesa, on the Piedmont shore of Lake Maggiore, and is one of the very few lakefront properties of such splendor, maintained in perfect condition. As soon as you enter this residence (fully furnished), you will be taken back in time, enchanted by everything you see: every corner and every antique piece (from unique Murano glass chandeliers to prestigious antique rugs) has been deliberately placed in that exact spot, creating continuity from one room to the next in both colors and materials, all the result of lengthy research... so that everything is harmonious. The villa is laid out over three main floors, in addition to the basement level; on the ground floor, a large covered terrace leads to the main entrance and to the frescoed and decorated reception rooms, the dining room and the music room. The elevator shaft and the precious, captivating staircase embellished with splendid stained-glass windows lead to the upper floors. On the first floor we find the sleeping area with four bedrooms with bathrooms, and two terraces, one of which offers a splendid view of Lake Maggiore. Each room is distinguished by frescoes and paintings with different themes that recount the beauty and the flowers of the lake. On the attic floor, the master bedroom, also frescoed, with en-suite bathroom, large walk-in closet, study/bedroom. On the partially below-ground floor we find the “relax” area, where nothing is missing: a large professional kitchen, dining room, cinema room, excellently equipped laundry room, bathroom and technical rooms with a lake well, usable for irrigating the park. The approximately 8,000 sq m park surrounding this enchanting residence, also featuring a splendid swimming pool (with counter-current swimming and cover), is an alternation of flowers and beautifully maintained plants that enrich the property with color and fragrances. The villa is completed by two annexes, the larger of which is 200 sq m, recently fully renovated and finely furnished, equipped with a large patio, and arranged over two levels comprising: eat-in kitchen, living room, guest bathroom and technical room on the ground floor; 2 bedrooms with en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet on the 1st floor. The second, 60 sq m, also with a patio and fully furnished, is ideal for accommodating additional guests or a caretaker. A large parking area can be further expanded by a project already approved for the construction of an underground garage.
