Located in the enchanting town of Stresa, often called the "Pearl of Lake Maggiore," this historic villa from the early 1900s offers an elegant retreat surrounded by a stunning botanical park. Through a meticulous renovation, the villa seamlessly blends its classic Art Nouveau architecture and prestigious original furnishings with refined modern design elements. With breathtaking views, luxurious interiors, and exclusive amenities, this villa is an ideal setting for both relaxation and special events.
Spanning three floors, the villa is designed for both comfort and grandeur. The main floor features full-height arched windows that flood the space with natural light and offer scenic views of the park. High ceilings enhance the sense of openness across the six interconnected rooms, which include a living area with a smart TV, a dining room, a library, a game room, a music space, and a work area. The historical charm is further elevated by a Blüthner Leipzig grand piano and working marble fireplaces, particularly enjoyable during the winter months. A fully equipped kitchen, a spacious adjoining workroom, and two elegant guest bathrooms complete this level.
A grand wooden staircase leads to the second floor, where a spacious and sunlit 100-square-meter living room offers sweeping views of Lake Maggiore and the Borromean Islands. This level houses five uniquely designed double bedrooms, each featuring a private en-suite bathroom, sophisticated décor, and modern comforts. A newly added wellness area includes an emotional shower and bio-sauna, enhancing the relaxation experience.
Ascending a charming spiral staircase leads to the recently renovated attic level, which features a large triple bedroom with a private bathroom and a brand-new cinema area designed for entertainment.
Guests have full access to all designated spaces within the villa, including the lush botanical park and the scenic infinity pool. A brand-new hot tub, nestled in a private and secluded section of the garden surrounded by aromatic plants and vines, offers an intimate relaxation space. Additionally, the property includes a stunning panoramic greenhouse known as "lemonia," filled with native lemon trees that perfume the air with their refreshing scent. This elegant 180-square-meter iron-framed structure, fully transparent, provides a magical setting for dinners and events under a canopy of suspended lights.
A dedicated attendant/caretaker is always present on the property to ensure a seamless and comfortable stay. Secure private parking is available adjacent to the villa’s entrance gate.
