Suspended between sky and lake, with an unparalleled view of the Borromean Islands, this elegant villa on the hills above Stresa represents one of the most charming and private properties on Lake Maggiore. Its exclusive and commanding location guarantees absolute privacy and tranquility, yet it’s just 2 kilometers from the city center and a short distance from Mount Mottarone, offering a perfect balance between nature and comfort.
Surrounded by greenery and enhanced by extraordinary light, the property stands out for its rooms that seamlessly interact with the landscape, offering unique panoramic views from every angle. The villa is currently divided into two independent apartments, both on one level and with separate driveway and pedestrian entrances, making it the ideal solution for both a large family and those seeking a home that combines hospitality with living.
The ground floor apartment, approximately 150 square meters, welcomes guests with spacious and harmonious spaces, where the large living room with open kitchen becomes the heart of the home, opening onto panoramic terraces of approximately 80 square meters with frontal lake views. The sleeping area, consisting of three bedrooms and two bathrooms, is finished with quality materials, underfloor heating, and modern solutions such as pocket doors, which lend elegance and continuity to the rooms.
On the first floor, the approximately 100-square-meter apartment offers a more intimate and refined atmosphere, enhanced by a living room with a fireplace and open-plan kitchen, two bedrooms, a walk-in closet, and attic spaces. Here, too, outdoor spaces play a key role: the approximately 45-square-meter terraces offer sweeping and evocative 180-degree lake views, making every moment unique. The two apartments are connected internally by a staircase, offering the possibility of combining the spaces and creating a single, spacious villa.
The property also features a large garage that can easily accommodate multiple cars, along with additional storage spaces that enhance its functionality. Of particular charm is the dramatic porch of approximately 150 square meters, a true extension of the living area, overlooking the flat lakefront garden of approximately 1,200 square meters. This well-maintained outdoor space, equipped with an automatic irrigation system, represents a private oasis perfect for relaxation and socializing, immersed in a natural setting of rare beauty.
What makes this property even more attractive is its development potential: it’s possible to build an indoor or outdoor swimming pool, as well as an extension to create a third apartment of approximately 150 square meters. There’s also a project already studied, though not yet realized, for the construction of additional residential units, opening up concrete prospects for investment purposes as well.
A highly prestigious residence, where views, elegance, and versatility blend in perfect balance, ideal both as an exclusive private residence and as a valuable real estate opportunity in one of Lake Maggiore’s most sought-after locations.
Nestled in the picturesque town of Stresa, this property offers stunning views of Lake Maggiore and the Alps. Located a short drive from Milan Malpensa Airport and the Stresa Train Station, it provides easy access to major Italian and European cities. Rich in cultural heritage, the area is famed for its villas, gardens, and proximity to the Borromean Islands. Stresa is a hub for luxury dining and relaxation, with a choice of high-end spas, golf clubs, and fine dining experiences nearby.
