Villa Ghiffa Seeblick

VILLA STORICA VISTA LAGO GHIFFA
In the heart of Ghiffa, in an elevated and commanding position just a short walk from the lakeside and local amenities, stands this extraordinary historic Liberty-style villa, set within a lush private park and boasting a breathtaking panoramic view over Lake Maggiore. This residence of rare charm and architectural value dates back to the early 20th century. The original project, published in 1908 in the prestigious magazine L’Architettura Italiana, bears witness to the villa’s historical and artistic significance. A meticulous conservative restoration has preserved its authentic character, enhancing original decorative ceilings, Venetian terrazzo and fine wooden floors, period fireplaces and distinctive architectural details, all seamlessly combined with modern living comforts. The villa is arranged over three main floors, complemented by an evocative panoramic tower, and offers spacious, light-filled interiors designed for elegant living. On the ground floor, the entrance opens onto a refined reception hall with fireplace, alongside a study-living room, a generously sized kitchen and an elegant dining room enriched by a fireplace and original historical features. The first floor is dedicated to the sleeping area and comprises five bedrooms, including one with en-suite bathroom, covered balcony and terrace overlooking the lake—an ideal setting for moments of tranquillity and contemplation. Additional balconies and a further bathroom complete this level. The top floor houses an independent guest apartment with two bedrooms, a study and a bathroom, featuring a separate entrance to ensure complete privacy. The panoramic tower, accessible from the outside, offers a privileged viewpoint over the surrounding landscape and lends itself perfectly to use as a creative studio, relaxation area or fitness space. Outside, the private park surrounds the villa in an atmosphere of absolute seclusion. A charming wrought-iron pergola draped in wisteria creates an intimate retreat from which to admire the spectacular view across the lake towards the Lombard shore. The property is completed by a cellar, a garage and three covered parking spaces. The location is one of the villa’s greatest assets: just five kilometres from Verbania and approximately twenty kilometres from the Swiss border, it offers both tranquillity and excellent accessibility. Nearby lies the Sacro Monte of Ghiffa, a UNESCO World Heritage Site set amidst unspoilt nature and scenic walking trails of remarkable beauty. A truly unique property, combining history, elegance and an exceptional setting, designed for those seeking to experience Lake Maggiore from a residence of authentic prestige.
