4 bedrooms house, 160 m²

Musso, Como (province)

Lake Como

Set in a privileged position just a few minutes' walk from the shores of Lake Como, this charming independent house represents a rare opportunity to acquire a character property combining proximity to the water, private outdoor space and significant potential for further enhancement.
Arranged over two levels and offering approximately 160 sqm of interior space, the residence is structurally sound and retains many of the authentic architectural details that give traditional Lake Como homes their distinctive charm.
The ground floor opens into a spacious living area, complemented by a separate kitchen, a practical storage room and an atmospheric wine cellar. An internal staircase leads to the upper floor, where the sleeping accommodation comprises four generously sized double bedrooms and a bathroom, together with a balcony enjoying beautiful views across Lake Como.
Throughout the house, original features including period flooring, hand-painted decorative walls, exposed stone and timber elements create a warm sense of history and provide an appealing foundation for a thoughtful renovation. The property would benefit from updating, while offering considerable scope to reinterpret the interiors according to contemporary standards without losing their original character.
The house is complemented by approximately 300 sqm of private land, providing valuable outdoor space in a location so close to the lake. The garden offers the opportunity to create attractive areas for outdoor dining, relaxation and planting, enhancing the connection between the house and its natural surroundings.
Adding further interest to the property is the availability of approximately 100 cubic metres of additional building volume, potentially allowing for an extension of the existing residence, subject to applicable planning regulations and the necessary authorisations.
Its location is undoubtedly one of its greatest strengths. The lakefront and local beach are within a short walk, allowing everyday life to revolve naturally around the water, while the position provides beautiful views of Lake Como and the surrounding mountains.
Please note: Some of the images included in the photo gallery are purely indicative architectural renderings, created to illustrate a possible outcome following renovation while respecting the traditional character and architectural style of the area.

Any future works will be subject to the relevant planning regulations and necessary authorisations.
Independent homes with private land, authentic character and this degree of proximity to Lake Como are increasingly difficult to find. With its manageable scale, additional building potential and original architectural features, the property offers an exciting opportunity to create a highly personal Lake Como residence — whether as a permanent home or an inviting holiday retreat just moments from the lake.
