Villa Carlottina was built approximately 200 years ago and was part of the Brentano family estate, a family of merchants and one of the most influential families on Lake Como in the 18th century. The property was fully updated in 1997, retaining many charming features such as floors, fireplace, doors, and windows.
Set back 150m from the lake amidst lush gardens, a private olive grove, and semi-rural hilly grounds of more than 8,000 sqm, this property enjoys absolute tranquility and magnificent vantage points to view Lake Como, Bellagio, and the mountains.
The romantic villa, spanning approximately 410 sqm, is set on 4 floors. The ground floor comprises a lovely living room with a fireplace and access to a wonderful covered terrace, a bar area, an eat-in kitchen with seating for 12, and access to a large covered terrace with barbecue. The 3 upper floors accommodate 6 lake-view bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and 3 additional rooms.
A cozy two-level lodge with an open-plan kitchen, dining, and sitting area, a bedroom, a bathroom, and a covered terrace is ideal as staff or guest accommodation. A garage and a recently built swimming pool with a sunbathing terrace complete the property.
Access to the property is via a charming cobbled path on foot, motorbike, or utility terrain vehicle (UTV), only 150 m from the lakeside road Via Regina with public parking available.
The property enjoys a secluded and quiet location, guaranteeing a high level of privacy, and is situated next to the botanical garden of the world-famous Villa Carlotta and the 5-star Grand Hotel Tremezzo. A variety of amenities such as restaurants, cafes, shops, lidos, and the ferry boat station are less than a 5-minute walk away. The area offers a wide selection of activities including hiking, boat rental, water sports, tennis, golf, hotel-spa treatments, sightseeing, horseback riding, and fine dining.
TREMEZZO AT LAKE COMO
Tremezzo, located on the western shore of picturesque Lake Como, is 30 km from the Swiss border/Lugano, 30 km from Como and the highway to Milan and Malpensa airport. Menaggio and Bellagio are easily reachable by car or ferry. The Tremezzina area is one of the most sought-after areas on Lake Como, thanks to its excellent sun exposure, the undeniable charm of local architecture with authentic hamlets and elegant historic villas, and the wealth of local amenities and attractions.
