Terrace Villa Apartment, Tremezzina
Tremezzina, Lake Como, Lake Como, Italy
Why We Selected It
Tremezzina is the stretch of Lake Como people picture when they picture Lake Como: Villa Carlotta and its gardens, the ferry to Bellagio across the water, the mountains rising straight out of the lake on the far shore. What is unusual here is the price. Most of what sits this close to the water on this side of the lake is either a villa at several million or a compromise with no outdoor space. This is a restored apartment in a period villa, three hundred metres from the shore, with a terrace large enough to be the main room of the house for half the year.

Life Here
The lake
Three hundred metres to the shore, with Villa Carlotta, Villa del Balbianello and the ferry to Bellagio and Varenna all within the immediate stretch.
The terrace
Wide enough for a full table and chairs, facing the water and the mountains — where the day happens from spring to autumn.
The village
Tremezzina is a working lakeside village rather than a resort: bars, a market, boats, and the lake path along the water.
Getting there
Como 30 km, Lugano 32 km, Milan 75 km, and Milan Malpensa airport 85 km.
Our Perspective
Why it works
A completely restored 60 m² home with a large private terrace, three hundred metres from Lake Como, at €265,000 — an entry point into one of Europe's most recognised lakes without a renovation project attached.
Ownership case
Tremezzina sits on the western shore between Como and Menaggio, where the shoreline is fixed and the villas are protected. Small restored homes with outdoor space are the scarcest part of that stock.
What makes it special
The terrace: a large open platform above the rooftops with the lake and the mountains in front of it, attached to a one-bedroom home you can walk into and use immediately.
Best suited for
Someone who wants a simple, finished base on Lake Como for long weekends and summers, where the outdoor space matters more than the floor area.
