Main Features
Description
The property occupies an elevated position overlooking Lake Como and the surrounding mountains. Recently renovated, the villa has been enhanced through a careful restoration that preserves the character of the original residence while introducing contemporary finishes and modern features.
Thanks to its favorable exposure, the interiors are filled with natural light throughout the day, while the surrounding landscape becomes part of the living experience, with lake views from many areas of the home. The villa offers eight bedrooms and nine bathrooms, providing generous accommodation for a large family or for welcoming guests. Large windows maximize daylight and frame the views from much of the residence.
The living area has been designed for entertaining and everyday living, where contemporary materials meet the villa's original architecture, creating interiors with warmth and character.
One of the property's main highlights is its outdoor living area. The modern panoramic swimming pool overlooks the surrounding landscape and is complemented by terraces and sunbathing areas designed for enjoying Lake Como throughout the warmer months. A spacious panoramic terrace is one of the villa's most enjoyable spaces, ideal for outdoor dining, sunset aperitifs, or simply taking in the views of the lake and surrounding mountains.
The property also includes two private outdoor parking spaces, a particularly valuable feature in this part of Lake Como.
Thanks to its layout and location, the villa offers considerable versatility. It is well suited as a private residence, an exclusive holiday home, or an investment opportunity for the development of a boutique hotel, guest house, or boutique B&B.
Carate Urio is one of the most characteristic villages on the first basin of Lake Como, appreciated for its historic villas, hillside residences surrounded by greenery, terraced gardens, and scenic walking trails connecting the lake with the surrounding hills. The property's hillside setting offers privacy and panoramic views while remaining just a short distance from the lakeside and local amenities.
