From this sun-drenched hill with a south-facing aspect, you not only enjoy the finest views over the lake, but the former aristocratic hunting lodge in Verbania on Lake Maggiore also impresses with its rich architectural details: frescoes, columns, murals, coffered ceilings, and exquisite sculptures that grace both the house and its gardens.
Originally built in the late 18th century as a hunting lodge and summer residence, the property was transformed at the beginning of the 19th century into a distinguished residence, giving it the elegant appearance it retains today.
This exclusive and meticulously maintained estate is fully enclosed by walls, offering complete privacy. Situated in a quiet, verdant neighbourhood, the centre of Intra is still within easy walking distance.
