Description

In the heart of Mergozzo, in an absolutely unique lakeside location, stands this stately historic villa dating back to the 17th century, overlooking the town’s main square.

A rare and unmissable residence for experiencing the uniqueness of Lake Mergozzo in its most authentic form.

The main entrance, accessible by car and on foot, opens onto an inner courtyard featuring two covered parking spaces—a valuable amenity in such a central location. The stately entrance leads to the first floor via a staircase with steps made of white Montorfano granite—a material typically quarried locally—and walls adorned with elegant painted marbling.

The first floor opens onto the living room, the villa’s most charming room: a frescoed ceiling, floors of antique handcrafted terracotta, and a fine white marble fireplace. The windows opening onto the balcony offer an unobstructed view of the lake and the romantic Piazza Cavour. Here we find two small sitting rooms with elegant cement tile floors, which can be used as a refined tea room or a reading room with a view of the lake.

On the same floor is the dining room, characterized by a more rustic and traditional style, where the flagstone floor and the massive granite fireplace take center stage, while the compact kitchenette is separated from the main space. Rounding out the floor is a fourth living room—ideal as a playroom—connected to the villa’s secondary entrance, and a first bathroom equipped with a shower.

The second floor is entirely dedicated to the sleeping quarters: seven bedrooms ensure ample space and privacy even for numerous guests, with the two main master bedrooms enjoying an unobstructed view of the lake. Two full bathrooms—one with a tub and one with a shower—serve the floor.

The property also includes, on the ground floor, two storage rooms and a laundry room, as well as two spacious cellars: utility spaces that add convenience to the property.

All major amenities, restaurants, and cafés are within walking distance of the villa, allowing you to explore the village without needing a car. A truly charming home for those who dream of the slow-paced life by the lake.

Location: Mergozzo, Piedmont

Mergozzo is a lovely town lying on the shore of the homonymous Lake. In ancient times it was the very Western part of Lake Maggiore, but during the centuries the floods of Toce river formed a strip of land that divides Lake Maggiore from that of Mergozzo. On its waters we can admire the picturesque village of Mergozzo, which hosts the Archaeological Museum and the granite eco-museum of Montorfano. From Mergozzo starts the Azzurro Path, a beautiful trekking route that, from the lakeside follows the north side of Montorfano, which despite being high little less than 800m, has the particularity of being a unique block of white granite, therefore, there are since always are several quarries: the columns of the Church of San Paolo Fuori le Mura in Rome were built with the white granite of Montorfano.
