In the exclusive San Maurizio district of Brunate, on the hills above Como, this distinguished 1920s historic villa is protected by the Fine Arts heritage authority and enjoys views extending towards Lake Como, Monte Rosa and the Swiss Alps. The residence offers 680 sqm across four levels, surrounded by a private, level 1,900 sqm garden with mature trees, landscaped shrubs, wrought-iron details and a natural-stone driveway. Its private setting is ideal for outdoor entertaining while remaining close to Brunate, the historic funicular and the Voltiano Lighthouse. The ground floor is designed for reception, with an impressive glazed entrance door, a marble-floored hall with geometric motifs and arches, a grand fireplace lounge, a former library with a second fireplace, a spacious kitchen and a guest bathroom. A marble staircase with an ornate balustrade connects all floors. The upper levels provide seven bedrooms and four bathrooms, distinguished by high ceilings, period parquet flooring, balconies and generous windows. One bedroom occupies the characteristic turret, an exceptional vantage point over the surrounding landscape. The lower-ground floor includes a tavern with wine cellar, a versatile hobby room suitable for conversion into a fitness area, and a technical room. A private garage and additional perimeter parking complete the property. In need of refurbishment, with roof coverings renewed in past decades, this villa offers an outstanding opportunity to restore its original character to contemporary standards of comfort.
