6 bedrooms villa, 550 m²

Oliveto Lario, Lecco (province)

Lake Como

On the eastern shore of Lake Como, with an unparalleled lake view and the "Grigne" mountains, environed by greenery, and nested in tranquillity, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Palazzo Estate is pleased to present you with an exclusive property in the well-known hamlet of Vassena. It is located on the eastern side of Lake Como between Oliveto Lario and Civenna-Bellagio. The lake view, the sun orientation, the absolute privacy and quiet, various lands, the nature, and the annexe render this property truly unique.

The property, named “Villa Linda”, was built by the famous architect Paolo Mezzanotte between the 1930s and 1940s. He designed it on a significant land plot with views of Lake Como, in a clear position among olive and chestnut groves. The property consists of a main villa and an independent annexe, for a total of 6 bedrooms, and 5 bathrooms. It disposes of a commercial area of the villa of 400 sqm and approx. 150sqm for the outbuilding, and a living area of approx. 270sqm and 110sqm respectively.

The main villa disposes of 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, with a living area of about 270 and a commercial area of about 400. The annexe consists of 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The private road is suitable for vehicles, with access via remote-controlled gates. Among the most recent renovations, there is the restoration of the roof covering in 2019. The private road got entirely surfaced in 2022.

The villa opens up with the ground floor through the main entrance, which overlooks the panoramic terrace overlooking the lake. Continuing, there is a study, a closet, a bathroom with a window and shower, a kitchen, and a living room. A wide panoramic living room, with immersive views of the lake thanks to the five semicircular windows, is typical of each floor. Specific is the natural lighting from the many windows. Proceeding, on the first floor, there are four bedrooms, a hallway, two bathrooms with windows, one with a bathtub, and two private balconies. The first floor under the street has the main technical rooms, such as large cellar spaces with windows, a boiler room and a bathroom with windows. A 55 m2 box is present as well.

The annexe, located at the entrance to the villa's garden, is made up of: the ground floor with a bedroom, a bathroom with a window, a kitchenette, a large living room with fireplace, a small balcony; on the floor below there is the second bedroom and another bathroom. Excellent natural light for both levels, thanks to the large windows. The view of Lake Como, surrounded by the private garden, is also pleasant from here. The annexe, thanks to its size and space, is definitely an ideal place, which can be used as an independent villa for guests or, alternatively, as a large private studio.

The external spaces belonging to “Villa Linda” are conspicuous and heterogeneous. Firstly, there is a planted garden, which surrounds the villa, of approximately 7,500m2. In addition to this, there is the land of about 11,000 square meters of the private paved road; neighbouring land of 3,800m2, currently terraced with lawn and olive trees and potentially developable with a possible swimming pool, tennis court or new residential properties. Finally, we find other neighbouring land for approx. 30,000 m2, made up of chestnut trees and coppice.

Ultimately, the villa enjoys a unique and beautiful impact on Lake Como. In the planning, the spaces were well harmonized following a precise architectural selection. The internal staircase was made of walnut wood. The parapets of the stairs of the terraces, and the various works, were made with chestnut and beech wood. The use of natural materials such as stone and wood were integrated to give continuity and harmony with the surroundings. The local lake stone was used perfectly. The villa has been, up to the present day, perfectly integrated into the natural panorama of the lake and the Lake Como's mountains.

In terms of connections, Vassena is close to the centre of Bellagio. It takes less than 15 minutes to reach this worldwide known village. It takes less than 20 minutes to go to Lecco, the main city of the province of the same name and the second most important city on the lake, after Como. Excellent road connections from Lecco to Como, Brianza and Milan. The property is in a strategic position for the main airports in Lombardy. Milan-Bergamo Orio al Serio airport is about 55 km away, Milan Linate about 65 km, and Milan Malpensa about 85 km.
