A Villa Above Moltrasio, Lake Como
Moltrasio, Lake Como, Lake Como, Italy
Why We Selected It

Moltrasio is one of the most desirable villages on Lake Como — the first celebrated shore reached heading north from Cernobbio, appreciated for its elegant historic villas, renowned hotels and lakeside restaurants. This property pairs a genuine historic villa with an independent guest house across roughly 417 m² of living area, set within a park of about 1,300 m² of trees, flowering plants and quiet pathways that open onto changing views of the lake. What makes it worth selecting is the combination rarely found together: architectural heritage preserved with authentic charm, a panoramic terrace at the villa's highest level, and a fully independent guest house with its own wine cellar — on a hillside where such complete holdings seldom come to market.
The Home

Historic lake-view villa with park, panoramic terrace and independent guest house · Preserved architectural heritage with modern kitchen and lake-view windows; opportunity for thoughtful renovation
An exclusive historic villa with a 1,300 m² park and an independent guest house on the celebrated lake-view hillsides of Moltrasio — approx. 417 m² over four levels with a panoramic terrace, a glass conservatory entrance, and Lake Como views, €4.4M.
- Approx. 417 m² of total living area across the main villa and an independent guest house, arranged over four levels, with a park of approx. 1,300 m².
- A glass conservatory entrance frames the reception area, creating a natural transition between the garden and the interior and filling the home with natural light.
- Elegant flooring, a modern kitchen, wide lake-view windows and preserved architectural details balance historic character with modern living.
- The upper floor is dedicated to the main living areas, where the eat-in kitchen and dining room open directly onto a panoramic terrace — an ideal setting for outdoor dining over Lake Como.

- A panoramic terrace at the villa's highest level offers beautiful views across Lake Como.
- The main villa preserves its original character and also offers the opportunity for thoughtful renovation, allowing future owners to reinterpret its spaces while honouring the property's architectural identity.

Our Perspective
Why it works
A complete historic holding on a celebrated Moltrasio hillside — a roughly 417 m² villa with a panoramic terrace and a 1,300 m² park, plus an independent two-level guest house with its own wine cellar, bought together at €4.4M.
Ownership case
Moltrasio is one of Lake Como's most sought-after addresses, and complete holdings of this scale — villa, park, panoramic terrace and independent guest house — seldom reach the market here. The property works as a private lakefront estate kept for seasonal retreats and entertaining, with the guest house letting you host family, staff or paying guests in privacy, or as a characterful primary residence within minutes of Cernobbio, Como and the Swiss border.
What makes it special
The pairing that buyers on Lake Como look for and rarely find together: an authentic historic villa with preserved architectural heritage and a panoramic lake-view terrace, set in a 1,300 m² park, alongside a fully independent guest house with its own wine cellar — all on one of the lake's most celebrated hillside positions.
Best suited for
A buyer who wants a complete, characterful Lake Como estate — villa, park, terrace and independent guest house — within minutes of Cernobbio and Como, equally convincing as a private seasonal residence or a permanent home with space to host family and guests in privacy.
