6 bedrooms villa, 370 m² Leggiuno, Varese (province)
Main Features
Description
Designed in 1957 by architect Luigi Caccia Dominioni, a leading figure in 20th-century Italian architecture, the villa was built directly onto the rock, a choice that shaped its distinctive multi-level layout. The interior spaces are conceived with a functional and ergonomic approach, featuring built-in wardrobes and flush doors, while part of the sleeping area was renovated in 2018.
The property has a total surface area of approximately 370 sqm. Access is via a private driveway leading to a paved courtyard with parking space for up to four cars. The main entrance opens onto the living area, where the fireplace lounge and dining room fully open to the outdoors through a large sliding glass door. The lakefront terrace thus becomes a natural extension of the living space and provides access to an external room with bathroom.
The kitchen is separate and features a service entrance and a large pantry with refrigerators; from here one reaches a second panoramic terrace with a storage room, ideal as an outdoor dining area or relaxation space. The sleeping area is divided into three distinct sections: a renovated master suite with walk-in wardrobe, en-suite bathroom with shower and private terrace; a second area with two bedrooms and a bathroom with bathtub; and a third area with two additional bedrooms and a bathroom with shower. Three bedrooms overlook a large panoramic terrace connected to both the garden and the living area.
The attic level hosts an additional bedroom, a bathroom and a spacious service room, ideal as guest accommodation or staff quarters. The villa is fitted with wooden window frames with aluminum shutters, ceramic flooring, and a volumetric alarm system with dedicated sensors.
The approximately 2,000 sqm terraced garden extends down to the lake, creating several areas dedicated to outdoor living and relaxation. There is also an outbuilding currently used as storage, which can easily be converted into a pool house or a space serving the beach area. The private boathouse, a highly sought-after feature on Lake Maggiore, completes this valuable property.
A residence designed for those seeking a direct connection with the water, ideal both as a main home and as an exclusive second residence, where architecture, nature and scenery blend into a unique living experience.
