Overlooking the calm waters of Lake Como and built on the site of an ancient medieval watchtower, Villa Peonia dominates the landscape with one of the most spectacular views in Europe. Built in 1909 in refined Liberty style, the property has undergone a meticulous restoration that has been able to preserve its historic charm, while integrating the highest contemporary standards of comfort and quality. With its 1,231 square meters of elegant living spaces, it represents one of the most exclusive residences on the entire lake.
The villa has eight double bedrooms, six of which have en suite bathrooms, as well as a large sitting room, living room, formal dining room, fully equipped kitchen, study, multimedia room and bar. To complete the property there are two panoramic roof terraces, a suggestive yoga and wellness room carved directly into the rock and an extraordinary independent pool house with entertainment area, green roof and infinity pool.
Located 881 meters above the lake and without immediate neighbors, Villa Peonia guarantees an extremely rare level of privacy on Lake Como. Surrounded by 4.5 acres of lush private gardens, it offers an authentic oasis of tranquility and privacy. The nearby village of Pigra offers traditional restaurants and panoramic trails ideal for hiking and mountain biking, while Argegno, easily accessible, offers a selection of restaurants, a private pier and a scheduled taxi boat service to explore the most famous places on the lake.
Thanks to its southern exposure, the villa enjoys incomparable views that range from the sparkling blue of the lake to the verdant mountain landscapes, to the suggestive golden sunsets. These scenarios can be admired from the balconies of each bedroom, from the wraparound main terrace, from the pool house with infinity pool and rooftop bar, as well as from the wellness room, designed to fully enhance the surrounding landscape.
Strategically located, the property is about 75 minutes from Milan Malpensa International Airport and 60 minutes from Lugano International Airport, making it the ideal retreat for those who want beauty, serenity and timeless Italian elegance.
