In a privileged position just a few steps from the Verbania shores of Lake Maggiore stands Villa Serena: an elegant historic Liberty-style residence, built in the 19th century on the first slopes of the hillside, overlooking the waters of the lake and the surrounding landscape. The intrinsic charm of the location, combined with the prestige of its period architecture, transforms this residence into a rare jewel capable of enchanting anyone who enters.
Surrounded by a beautifully maintained garden of approximately 2,700 sqm, enhanced by expertly crafted stone walls, Villa Serena offers several naturally shaded relaxation areas. On the northern side, the garden reveals a delightful raised vegetable garden and a small recently planted vineyard, framing a utility building used as a storage and laundry room. The swimming pool, complete with a sunbathing area, is enriched by a scenic stone solar shower, creating an elegant and relaxing oasis.
Recently restored with meticulous attention and full respect for its original features, the villa has preserved its historic spirit while embracing a renovation project that enhances every room. Just a few steps from the main entrance stands a dependance of approximately 130 sqm on two levels, currently undergoing a full restoration. It will be delivered with completed exterior finishes, while the interiors will remain customizable. The project provides for the creation of two independent units, one of which with a terrace, offering maximum flexibility of use. Initially designed for high-end tourist accommodation, the quality of the renovation makes the dependance equally suitable as a refined guest house, ensuring privacy and independence for owners, family, and visitors. An ideal solution both as a high-yield investment and as an extension of the main residence, in an exclusive and private setting.
The main villa, which will be sold fully furnished except for personal belongings, offers five bedrooms and four bathrooms, comfortably accommodating numerous guests. A large terrace, accessible from the kitchen and overlooking the lake and the pool, is the perfect place for moments of relaxation and conviviality. The splendid original frescoes that decorate the ceilings harmoniously dialogue with contemporary comforts, creating a refined balance between history and modernity. At the heart of the lower ground floor lies a dream-like wine cellar, accompanied by an elegant tasting room ideal for gastronomic experiences. The property also includes a rejuvenating sauna, a spacious laundry room, and a cosy tavern, designed for everyday comfort blended with the pleasure of well-being.
This is not simply a house: it is a refuge of warmth, elegance, and tranquility. A place to be lived with the heart, restored to its original beauty through care, passion, and vision. A unique opportunity to reside in a setting that blends functionality with emotion, created to offer unforgettable moments.
