Description

 In the very heart of Lecco’s historic centre, directly overlooking one of the city’s most prestigious and lively pedestrian squares, we are offering for sale an exclusive period townhouse. The property enjoys unrivalled scenic and urban surroundings, just a stone’s throw from the lakeshore and the picturesque promenade, with an unobstructed and iconic view of the square.

The building, characterised by the timeless charm of 19th-century classical architecture and embellished with wrought-iron balconies, is arranged vertically, offering a perfect balance between commercial and residential use. On the ground floor, the property features a commercial unit with excellent visibility, boasting large, floor-to-ceiling windows facing the square that capture the constant flow of pedestrians in the town centre.

 On the upper floors are two spacious residential apartments characterised by airy rooms and high ceilings, where natural light streams in through the large French windows. The interiors, finished with period herringbone parquet flooring, offer picturesque views of the square and the mountains, making them ideal for use as elegant private residences, prestigious corporate offices or high-end accommodation.

 This free-standing property represents a rare investment opportunity in the Lecco property market, combining the independence and prestige of an entire period building with the absolute convenience of having all town amenities, rail links and the ferry terminal within walking distance.

Location: Lecco, Lombardy

Lecco is the town that inspired Italian poet Alessandro Manzoni to write one of the most important and famous novels in Italian literature, ‘I promessi sposi’ (The Betrothed).

The city is known for its picturesque landscape, nestled between the mountains and the lake, as well as its rich cultural, literary, and industrial heritage. It offers many recreational, cultural, and commercial activities, as well as state-of-the-art services in education, healthcare, and industry.

Lecco's lakefront is a key element of the urban landscape: the scenic promenade offers spectacular views of Lake Como and the surrounding mountains. The buildings along the lakefront vary from neoclassical to modern styles, creating a harmonious mix of architecture.

The town offers various outdoor sports opportunities, given its privileged location close to the lake and mountains. Lovers of water sports, hiking and climbing will find numerous opportunities for fun.

The city of Lecco is about 50 minutes by car from Como, and is relatively close to Monza and Milan, which are also connected by the railway line and the SS36 state road, which makes it possible to reach Milan in less than an hour.

The most famous ski resorts in the Lombardy Alps (Madesimo and Bormio) and the Swiss Alps, including St. Moritz, can be reached in about two hours by car.

The airports of Milan Linate and Bergamo Orio al Serio are approximately one hour's drive away. Malpensa airport is 80 kilometres away.

Finally, with the boat and ferry service of the Lake Como Navigation Company, one can reach and visit all the most characteristic places on the lake.
