Residenza Storica Sul Lago DI Como In Vendita A Cernobbio | Giardino Privato E Vista Panoramica Sul Lago

A truly exceptional property. An irreplaceable setting. A rare opportunity to create an extraordinary private residence on Lake Como.

Set on the prestigious hillside of Cernobbio, one of the most exclusive and sought-after locations on Lake Como, this charming early-20th-century lakeside residence represents a rare opportunity to create a truly unique home in one of Italy’s most coveted destinations.

Perched above the lake, the property enjoys a breathtaking panoramic outlook over Lake Como and the surrounding landscape, creating an extraordinary sense of privacy and serenity.

It is precisely this combination of location, views, greenery and potential that makes the property so special and difficult to replicate.

The residence extends over approximately 200 sq m and retains the character and distinctive charm of a traditional early-1900s Lake Como home. The property is currently in need of a complete renovation, offering the future owner the exceptional opportunity to create a bespoke residence while preserving the spirit and architectural identity of the original building.

Surrounding the house is a private garden of approximately 700 sq m — an increasingly rare privilege in such a prestigious hillside location. The grounds offer the possibility of creating beautifully landscaped outdoor areas, private terraces, elegant entertaining spaces and secluded corners from which to enjoy the ever-changing panorama of the lake.

Within the grounds is also a small independent guest cottage, another particularly charming feature of the property. Once restored, it could become an intimate guest house, private studio or independent accommodation for family and guests.
A Rare Blank Canvas on Lake Como

The true value of this property lies in its extraordinary potential.

Rather than offering a finished residence, this is the opportunity to create one from the ground up, tailored entirely to the vision and lifestyle of its future owner.

The house is being offered in its current condition and requires a complete renovation. This provides the rare freedom to reinterpret the interiors, enhance the connection between the house and its garden, and create a sophisticated contemporary residence while retaining the authentic character of a historic Lake Como property.

Some of the images shown in this presentation are architectural renders and are purely illustrative. They do not depict the current condition of the property. Their sole purpose is to convey the remarkable potential of the residence and to offer a glimpse of what the house could become following a complete restoration and bespoke architectural project.

The renders therefore represent a possible future vision of the property, rather than its present appearance or a definitive architectural project.
Cernobbio – One of Lake Como’s Most Prestigious Addresses

The location is an essential part of the property’s appeal.

Cernobbio is synonymous with elegance, exclusivity and the timeless allure of Lake Como. The area is renowned for its historic villas, refined atmosphere and proximity to the lake, while remaining exceptionally well connected to Como and Milan.

The property is located within easy reach of the lakefront, Villa d’Este, renowned restaurants and the principal amenities of Cernobbio, while retaining the privacy and tranquillity of its elevated hillside setting.

Here, privacy, panoramic views, history and proximity to the lake come together in an exceptionally rare combination.
An Exceptional Lake Como Opportunity

Historic character, an extraordinary lake view, a substantial private garden, a guest cottage and the freedom to create a completely bespoke residence are qualities rarely found together in a single property.

This is therefore much more than a house requiring renovation.

It is the opportunity to create a one-of-a-kind private residence on Lake Como, in one of its most iconic and prestigious locations.

A property for those looking not simply for a home, but for an irreplaceable setting in which to create a truly personal Lake Como residence — with the lake itself as its ever-changing backdrop.
