Prestigious Villa perfectly renovated in 2013, with park and swimming pool in the centre of Belgirate, on the Piedmontese shores of Lake Maggiore. THE LOCATION The property overlooks Lake Maggiore in front of the harbour of Belgirate. The monumental villa is located within an English-style park, consisting of centuries-old plants of great value. HISTORY The prestigious villa was built in 1780 by the Beretta family, who later sold it to Domenico Pino, an Italian general under the orders of Napoleon Bonaparte. There were various passages, first to the Counts Fontana of Milan, then to the Biscaretti of Ruffia, and finally to Emilio Treves publisher of Milan, whose name it still bears today. Thanks to its interest in culture, the villa became a meeting place for the intellectuals of the time. In fact, it was frequented by Gabriele D’Annunzio, Edmondo De Amicis, Giovanni Verga and many others. THE GROUND FLOOR The ground floor of the period villa is divided into two main areas: the representation area and the informal area. The representative area has a large hall overlooking the lake, a living room and a large dining room. The informal area consists of the living room, the dining room, the kitchen, a bathroom for the disabled and another bathroom. This area opens onto the garden with the swimming pool. The lift serves the first three floors. THE FIRST FLOOR The first floor is dedicated to the sleeping area, and features a suite with a large living room, kitchen, bedroom, walk-in wardrobe and bathroom.

THE SECOND FLOOR On the second floor, there are 6 rooms with en suite bathrooms, one of them for the disabled. THIRD FLOOR The third floor is dedicated to technical rooms as well as storage rooms and three bathrooms and a large open space and an adjoining room.
