Period Villa, Private Garden, and a Front-Row Seat to Lake Como

If you’ve ever fantasized about owning a piece of Lake Como that doesn’t involve paparazzi or a private yacht named after your dog, here’s your in. Just outside the postcard-perfect town of Varenna, in the serene hamlet of Fiumelatte, sits this quietly confident lakeview apartment tucked into the mezzanine level of a turn-of-the-century villa.

Originally built in the early 1900s and sensitively restored in the 1980s, the residence still wears its historic bones with grace. Think: original detailing, grand ceilings, and that enviable solid-stone presence only time can gift. Inside the 133m² layout, you’ll find a fireplace-warmed living room, a proper kitchen, two generous bedrooms, and two bathrooms all wrapped in views that feel like a slow exhale.

Now let’s talk garden. 150m² of private green space with actual silence. No Vespa echoes, no shoe boutiques. Just you, the breeze, and maybe a glass of Franciacorta under a tree that doesn’t care what time it is.

Notable extras:
Two outdoor parking spaces
– Just 1km to central Varenna
and the ferry to Bellagio
– Set in a landmark villa with serious old-world appeal
Direct lake views that don’t need a filter

This is not your average lakeside apartment, oh no, it’s a low-drama, high-charm escape with timeless taste and just enough room to invite the people you actually like.
