Lake Como

Nestled in the heart of Capovico, in the village of Blevio very close to Como city, this ancient 18th century residence was completely renovated in 2020-2021 with meticulous attention to detail. The restoration project preserved and enhanced the original elements, such as the stone and wooden beams, while maintaining intact the historical atmosphere of the house. At the same time, the integration of contemporary materials, such as iron and resin, offers a harmonious balance between tradition and modern living, rendering the spaces both cosy and sophisticated. Resin floors in neutral tones blend with the natural rock, exposed beams and concrete walls, provides character and sophistication to the ambience. Elements of valuable designer furniture were carefully chosen to enhance the harmony of the spaces, as well as refined lighting fixtures. The house is also equipped with an advanced home automation system that manages the lighting, heating and irrigation of the garden, guaranteeing remote control comfort. The property is set on four levels and has three separate entrances. The ground floor boasts a bright living area with a dining room and a modern fully equipped open kitchen, which opens onto a magnificent terrace overlooking the lake and the garden. On the first floor there is a spacious master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, a shower overlooking the room, and large windows offering breathtaking views of the lake. The top floor houses a spacious living area with a fireplace and a wonderful open view of the lake; this space can easily be transformed into an exclusive master suite. From the ground floor, a short staircase leads to the first level below, an independent area currently used to accommodate tourists during the summer season. Here you can find a master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a charming, exposed stone shower. A separate entrance leads to a living area with a sofa bed, a small open kitchen and a dining area. From here, a uniquely designed iron staircase leads to a second bedroom with a private bathroom.

The property is completed by a laundry room, a wine cellar and a large separate garage, located just a five-minute walk from the house, with space for three cars.
