Pianello Del Lario, Como, Lombardy, Italy

"We are looking for a home in a quiet setting... yet still central. Not right in the middle of town, but close enough to walk everywhere. A place where we can step outside and reach the lake without needing the car-perhaps walking through greenery, stopping for a coffee by the waterfront or enjoying an aperitivo at sunset.

At the same time, we want true silence. No traffic, no city noise. The idea is to escape, even if just a little, from the rhythm of daily life and work. And perhaps-why not-work from home from time to time. Opening the laptop while overlooking Lake Como... that would be extraordinary.

So yes, a modern home with expansive glass walls and abundant natural light. Almost like a house in the woods-surrounded by greenery, with a beautiful garden and complete privacy. But with a breathtaking lake view: wide, open, embracing both the water and the surrounding mountains.

Yet without feeling isolated... restaurants nearby, the lakeside promenade within walking distance, the possibility of cycling to the lake in just a few minutes. Something architecturally striking, a contemporary home-the kind you might see on the cover of an architecture magazine. And ideally something we could personalize to suit our own taste, because finding something truly perfect is never easy.

Oh-and one more thing... we don't exactly have a five-million-euro budget.

So yes... nature, silence, lake views, and services nearby. We realize we may be asking for quite a lot.

Would you happen to have something like that?"

We understand your expectations.
It sounds like an impossible home to find.

Until you step through the door of this property.



Set in a setting of complete tranquility and privacy, this contemporary villa overlooking Lake Como represents a rare balance of architecture, landscape, and lifestyle. Floor-to-ceiling windows, expansive terraces, and light-filled interiors create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces, framing open views of the lake and the surrounding mountains.

The property unfolds across three levels with approximately 308 sqm of interior living space, complemented by 132 sqm of panoramic terraces and around 900 sqm of private grounds.

The ground floor, the heart of the home, welcomes you with a striking double-height living area, ideal for a suspended designer fireplace, alongside a spacious kitchen and dining area. Expansive glass walls frame the lake and lead directly to the impressive 108 sqm terrace, of which 45 sqm are covered, creating an exceptional outdoor living area designed to be enjoyed throughout the seasons. This level also includes a study or guest bedroom and a bathroom.

The first floor, enhanced by elegant exposed laminated timber beams, hosts the sleeping quarters with three double bedrooms, including a master suite with private bathroom and direct access to a 25 sqm covered terrace. The level is completed by a second bathroom, a laundry room, and an 18 sqm open gallery overlooking the living space, currently designed as a lounge area but easily convertible into a fourth or fifth bedroom with an additional bathroom.

The lower ground floor, approximately 114 sqm, includes a double garage, technical and laundry rooms, and a spacious windowed area perfectly suited for a private spa, gym, or wellness area.

Outside, the approximately 900 sqm private grounds provide both privacy and tranquility, with the possibility of creating an infinity pool overlooking the lake. The property also offers two to three outdoor parking spaces in addition to the double garage.

A residence designed for those who seek a contemporary interpretation of Lake Como living-bright spaces, refined architecture, and breathtaking views that become part of everyday life.

The villa is offered in an advanced shell condition, with an architectural project already fully approved by the relevant authorities. This represents a rare opportunity to bypass lengthy permitting procedures while completing the property with fully customized layouts, finishes, and materials, creating a residence perfectly tailored to the lifestyle and taste of its future owner.
