Why We Selected It

A Garden Facing the Lake, Gera Lario, context detail

The upper lake is at its best when the architecture gives the landscape room. Here, the low modern building sits into the hillside rather than competing with it: the living room and principal bedroom open directly to the garden, the mountains fill the windows, and the shared pool looks across the water. It is a practical, highly efficient new home rather than a decorative holiday apartment — quiet, sunny and close enough to reach the lake on foot.

The Home

A Garden Facing the Lake, Gera Lario, interior detail

Ground-floor apartment in a newly built lakeside residence with private garden and shared pool · Newly built, energy class A1; ready for the buyer's kitchen and final interior choices

A new ground-floor home in Gera Lario, 50 metres from the lake, with broad glazing, a private 50 m² garden, two double bedrooms and access to the residence's lake-facing pool and solarium.

  • Villa D, apartment 8B: about 125 m² commercial area, including approximately 104 m² of internal living space, set entirely on the ground floor.
  • A generous open living, dining and kitchen room has two full-height glazed doors onto the private garden of about 50 m², bringing the lake and mountain outlook into the main room.
  • Two double bedrooms, including a principal room opening towards the garden and lake, and two bathrooms; a small under-stair store and dedicated plant room complete the plan.
  • Energy class A1 construction with 14 cm thermal insulation, thermally broken aluminium frames, acoustic glazing, electrically operated external brise-soleil and a reinforced three-point entrance door.
  • Independent air-to-water heat pump with underfloor heating and cooling, provision for mechanical ventilation, separate day/night thermostats, electric towel radiators and an induction-ready kitchen connection.
  • The residence has lifts, internal and external stairs, and a large shared pool with solarium. Garages, cellar and uncovered parking are offered separately; the €550,000 asking price is stated before 10% VAT.

Life Here

At the lake

The shore is about 50 metres away, placing walks, swimming and days on the water within a few minutes of the front door.

Gera Lario

A small upper-lake town at the mouth of the Mera, known for its broad water, mountain horizon and a calmer rhythm than the central lake resorts.

The mountains

The garden looks towards the ridges above the northern lake, with Valchiavenna and the walking country around the Alto Lario close at hand.

All year

High-efficiency heating and cooling, lifts, private outdoor space and a ground-floor plan make this a credible year-round home, not only a summer base.

Our Perspective

Why it works

A sunny, ground-floor lake home with no internal stairs, strong energy performance and private outdoor space — in a residence whose pool and solarium capture the wider landscape.

Ownership case

New-build stock with usable gardens is limited around Lake Como. The efficient systems reduce upkeep and the two-bedroom, two-bathroom plan suits both extended stays and straightforward holiday use. Buyers should budget separately for 10% VAT and any chosen garage, cellar or parking space.

What makes it special

The everyday relationship with the view: mountain and lake glimpses from the garden, the principal bedroom and the broad living-room glazing, with the shoreline only 50 metres away.

Best suited for

A couple or small family wanting a low-maintenance contemporary home on the quieter northern shore, with private green space, pool access and strong year-round comfort.
