Apartment In A Historic Villa

In the heart of Loveno di Menaggio, in a setting of exceptional historical and scenic beauty, we are delighted to present an elegant apartment of approximately 190 sqm, located on the second floor of Villa Bel Faggio, a historic residence dating back to the 18th century. The property is surrounded by the discreet and refined atmosphere of one of the most charming villages on Lake Como.
Since the 18th century, Menaggio, ideally situated on the western shore of the lake in a central position, has been one of the preferred destinations for summer stays among aristocratic families and distinguished figures from the worlds of international culture and politics. They were drawn by its mild climate, excellent sun exposure and privileged location between Como, Milan and Lugano.
The apartment’s location is equally appealing. Menaggio town centre can be reached within just a few minutes, either on foot or by car, while the picturesque village of Loveno offers enchanting views and a more peaceful and secluded atmosphere than the lively town centre. The villa also benefits from its proximity to a sports centre with tennis courts and to the Val Sanagra, a beautiful natural area offering opportunities for relaxing walks surrounded by nature.
Villa Bel Faggio, historically known as Villa Stikker, is located in Piazza Mylius, just a short distance from the renowned Villa Mylius Vigoni, now home to an important Italian-German cultural centre. During the second half of the 20th century, this historic residence hosted meetings attended by some of the most prominent international political figures of the time, including Konrad Adenauer.
A refined home, ready to move into
From Piazza Mylius, a private square shared by the residents, access to the property is through an elegant gate, passing by the 18th-century fountain, the magnificent beech tree from which the villa takes its name, and the extensive communal gardens.
The apartment for sale offers approximately 200 sqm of commercial floor area and is located on the second floor of the western wing of the villa. Its triple aspect provides beautiful views over Bellagio, as well as overlooking the gardens and the surrounding landscape of rare natural beauty. It is an ideal home for those wishing to experience the charm of Lake Como in a setting rich in history and character.
The interiors stand out for their generous proportions and well-designed layout. The spacious and welcoming living room, adjoining a modern eat-in kitchen with fireplace, forms the heart of the home. It provides the perfect setting for relaxing and entertaining guests, with the stunning panorama of Lake Como serving as a natural focal point.
The sleeping area comprises two spacious bedrooms and two large bathrooms, one of which features a whirlpool bathtub. Both bathrooms are finished in elegant Venetian stucco and have separate ante-bathroom areas, one of which has been fitted out as a laundry room. The additional service room, currently unfinished, could be converted into a sauna or a walk-in wardrobe.
Recently renovated, the apartment is offered on a turnkey basis, complete with brand-new, high-quality designer furnishings, carefully selected to enhance the interiors and create a refined and harmonious overall aesthetic.
The sale also includes household linens, tableware, accessories and artwork, including several fine watercolours by renowned local artist Azimonti. All items are brand new and have never been used, ensuring a fully equipped home that is ready to be enjoyed immediately.
The property benefits from independent summer air conditioning and a centralised heating system shared with the apartment on the floor below. The building does not have a lift. The two nearest public parking areas are located approximately 100 and 300 metres from the property’s entrance gate, respectively.
An exceptional home, ready to move into, for those wishing to experience Lake Como in style, surrounded by the charm of history and enjoying splendid views of the lake, the surrounding mountains and Bellagio.

DMM real estate - A family business - 40 years of experience in real estate.
My name is Deborah Muzzu Martis, I was born in Como and I spent most of my life in Menaggio, on Lake Como, where I also live today. My father Giuseppe was the first professional real estate agent of the area. 15 years ago, motivated by the passion in this field, I decided to take advantage of his experience and started to follow his steps and became a certified real estate agent as well. I think it is important to establish a good relationship with my clients, to better understand their needs and what kind of property they are looking for. As I grew up in this area, I know my territory well, the climate, the facilities and I can be of great help in proposing the right property.
I believe my task is to make a selection among the properties offered and to present what matches better the client’s requirements and what I think is valuable and of quality.
I offer an ”all-round service”: I am able to suggest the most competent and reliable people for renovating, from the construction company to the handy man and housekeeping.
