Penthouse With A View Of The Duomo In The Heart Of Como's Historic Center With Approved Project

BHHS Palazzo Estate presents a unique penthouse in the historic heart of Como

In the heart of Como’s Old Town, BHHS Palazzo Estate offers a prestigious penthouse with an approved redevelopment project, located on one of the city’s most iconic historic streets.

The property is located in a building of extraordinary architectural value, dating back to the 19th century and enriched by decorative and restoration works completed in the early 20th century. A setting of rare elegance, where the charm of historic architecture meets the potential for creating a truly prestigious contemporary residence.

The penthouse spans the third and fourth floors of the building, with a total area of ​​approximately 500 square meters. The third level, approximately 85 square meters, houses three main rooms, while the upper floor, currently configured as a loft in need of renovation, offers over 400 square meters of extraordinary design potential.

The extensive use of glass throughout the project will create a harmonious relationship between interior and exterior, enhancing both the historic elements of the surrounding urban fabric and the evocative green profile of the Larch hills.

A particularly valuable feature is the original Lombard terracotta flooring on the fourth floor, a rare and precious historical testimony, which will be restored to its former splendor through careful restoration.

The penthouse’s dominant position, combined with the absence of adjacent buildings, guarantees exceptional brightness and unobstructed views of Como’s historic center, with privileged glimpses of Piazza San Fedele, Piazza Martinelli, and evocative views of the upper part of Como Cathedral.

The building’s unique urban configuration—free from adjacent buildings on three sides up to the third floor and completely independent on the fourth level—is an extremely rare feature in the city’s historic center. The façades further contribute to the property’s aesthetic and historical value.

The approved project also includes the installation of an elevator with direct access to the penthouse, a key element to ensure maximum comfort and privacy.

The property occupies a location of exceptional historical importance: it stands at the intersection of the two main streets of the ancient Roman Castrum, now Via Bernardino Luini and Via Indipendenza. This area has always been the beating heart of the city, characterized by luxury boutiques, restaurants, historic cafés, and pedestrian walkways leading to Como’s most iconic sites.

The Walled City represents the city’s historical and cultural center, a place where art, architecture, and lifestyle meet. Museums, the lakefront, elegant shopping streets, and all major services are located in the immediate vicinity.

The surrounding larch hills also offer a privileged setting for outdoor activities, scenic walks, and nature experiences, while the strategic location allows for quick connections to Milan and the main international airports:

Milan Malpensa: approximately 45 minutes
Milan Linate: approximately 55 minutes
Bergamo Orio al Serio: approximately 60-70 minutes
Como San Giovanni train station is just a few minutes’ walk away, as are the lakefront and all the city’s main attractions. An extraordinary residence, destined to become one of the most exclusive properties in Como’s historic center: a unique project that combines history, architecture, privacy, and an unparalleled location.
