8 bedrooms villa, 600 m²

Porto Valtravaglia, Varese (province)

Lake Maggiore

Villa Liberty Rivazzola, completed in 1914 and recently restored, is a refined example of early 20th-century Liberty architecture, carefully brought back to its original splendour through a meticulous conservation project that enhances original materials, frescoes and decorative details.

The villa enjoys a highly sought-after location in the very heart of Porto Valtravaglia, overlooking the charming marina of Lake Maggiore and within walking distance of the lakeside promenade, local amenities and the historic medieval church.

The property is arranged over four floors plus a panoramic tower, connected by an impressive frescoed staircase with restored stucco work, and offers elegant, generously proportioned interiors.
The entrance opens onto a spacious reception hall, followed by a large kitchen with fireplace and direct access to the surrounding garden. The ground floor also features two en-suite bedrooms.

The first floor hosts the main apartment, comprising a bright living room with fireplace, dining room, fully equipped kitchen, hallway and bathroom.
The attic level includes additional bedrooms and two bathrooms, as well as a charming library and relaxation area located in the tower, offering open views over the lake, from the Rocca di Angera to Switzerland.

The basement level provides service rooms, a tavern and a bathroom, as well as a fully independent apartment, ideal for guests or staff, consisting of a living room, kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom.

Outside, the villa is surrounded by a beautifully landscaped garden, enriched by mature azaleas, magnolias, camellias and botanical species. The outdoor living areas include patios and covered pergolas, an outdoor kitchen with barbecue, and a heated stone swimming pool with dedicated changing room and bathroom.

The preservation of architectural details both inside and out makes this villa a true Liberty-style landmark on Lake Maggiore, offering an exceptional historic residence in one of the most authentic lakefront villages.
