Villa Orsi — Domaine en Bord de Mer sur le Lac Majeur, Cannero Riviera

Overlooking the lakefront of Cannero Riviera, Villa Orsi is an elegant Belle Époque residence built around 1905, where historic charm meets refined modern living.

Just a few steps from the beach and the harbour, the villa enjoys one of the most privileged positions on Lake Maggiore – surrounded by the tranquillity of a century-old park yet within walking distance of the vibrant town centre.

The property is set within a magnificent 3,400 sqm park, combining the geometry of an Italian garden with the romantic appeal of an English landscape. Amidst manicured lawns, mature trees and a majestic camphor tree lies an exclusive area with an in-ground swimming pool and private corners for relaxation.

Spread across three levels, the villa offers approximately 660 sqm of living space. The careful restoration preserved original details – such as Venetian marble floors and fine parquetry – while adding contemporary comforts and high-quality finishes. All windows and doors have been replaced with new wooden frames and double glazing.

The ground floor welcomes guests with a spacious living room, a dining area with antique leaded glass windows, a modern open kitchen, and a stylish guest bathroom.

The upper floors host seven bedrooms and four bathrooms – two with bathtubs – as well as balconies and a large sun terrace offering panoramic views over the lake and the harbour of Cannero Riviera.

The lower level includes a cellar, laundry and multipurpose rooms, ideal for creating a private spa or wellness area. The property also offers several outdoor parking spaces, technical rooms and a separate storage area.

Villa Orsi is a home for connoisseurs – a residence where history, elegance and craftsmanship converge to create a truly timeless expression of lakeside living.
