Via Guglielmo Marconi, Agra, Varese, Lombardei

Set above Lake Maggiore in the village of Agra, Villa K2 is one of Carlo Mollino’s most distinctive architectural masterpiece. Completed in 1953, the villa was designed as a visionary holiday retreat, a place where architecture opens fully to the landscape.

The house is instantly recognisable for its suspended design: the main volume rises on slim pillars, giving the impression of a light structure floating among the trees. Large windows face the lake and fill the interiors with natural light, framing the panorama from every room.

Inside, many original features by Mollino remain intact, including wooden panelling and carefully preserved materials. The bright upper floor forms the main living area, while the lower level contains the service spaces, offering excellent potential for both conservative restoration and contemporary upgrades.

The property is surrounded by a large, level park that ensures complete privacy and flexibility of use. In addition to the main villa, the estate includes a caretaker’s house and a barn, both ideal for conversion into guest accommodation, creative studios, wellness areas or leisure spaces.
