Description
One of the most sought-after features of a property on Lake Como is the view. The town of Dongo lies on a series of hills that act as a natural amphitheater around the lake, guaranteeing shows of unique beauty. On top of one of these hills, we find this charming property consisting of the manor house spread over four levels with a panoramic outdoor patio and a dépandance connected to it by a colonnaded portico.
The ground floor opens with a bright living room with windows overlooking the lake and two dining rooms, one of which is the master bedroom with direct access to the outdoor patio and one connected to the kitchen. The ground floor has an eat-in kitchen and a guest bathroom. An elegant staircase leads to the first floor consisting of three double bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom and exterior view. The master bedroom has an anteroom enriched by splendid built-in wardrobes decorated with boiserie. The second-floor attic consists of two bedrooms and a bathroom.
The property includes a tavern, laundry room, a cellar built into the rock, and a double garage.
A particular feature of the interiors of this villa is the finishes and decorative elements of historical value, such as medieval gates, period fireplaces, and mosaic windows. A terraced park with historical statues and overhanging balconies surrounds the property offering a fantastic lake view. Built in the 70s and modernized over the years
