Villa Maria Como

Location

Located in Santa Maria Rezzonico, a historic borgo of the upper Lario, 40 km from Como, one of the most characteristic and picturesque areas of all Lake Como. A unique place in the world, of endless beauty. Aristocratic villas alternate with small ancient borghi of romantic flavour. Of glacial origin and similar to a fjord, Lake Como is surrounded by high mountains that animate the landscape with inlets, rocky terraces and steep banks that fall straight down to the water. If the lower part offers an architectural and landscape itinerary steeped in history, myths and legends, the upper lake perfumes of freedom: a paradise for sailing and walking at high altitude.

The fenced property extends for about 600 sq m, essentially lawn dotted with bushes and trees creating natural shaded areas, on the terraced land sloping down on the left side of the villa. The lawn area with the panoramic swimming pool, adjacent to the ground floor, is completely flat, overlooking the lake and sunny all day long. Flower beds frame the whole garden facing out over the lake. A winter garden used as a dining area is located near the swimming pool and is also connected to the living room. The kitchen on the ground floor opens onto a panoramic terrace set up as an outdoor dining area with a table seating 8, a wood oven and a barbecue, while in a panoramic position is a relaxation area with sofa and armchairs.

Just a few steps from the veranda, the rectangular pool measures 7,5 x 4,5 m with a constant depth of 1,10 m. Lined in blue PVC which blends in well with the surrounding landscape, it has chlorine purification and two sets of Roman steps opposite each other for access to the water. The pool edge and the solarium area are paved and equipped with sunbeds, director’s chairs and a large umbrella. The heated pool (on request with extra fee in low season) is available to guests from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October.
