Villa Verde is a gorgeous construction in the 'Liberty' style, with pieds dans l’eau...literally, "feet in the water".

Situated on the Italian shore of Lake Lugano, this villa is famous not only for its unique green hue, but also for the breathtaking scenery it takes in from its vast terrace overhanging the private garden (and wet dock, with direct lake access)...No wonder this intriguing property has been the subject of postcards and international magazines!

The main floor opens up on a luminous living room with a fireplace and separate dining room (both overlooking the terrace), a third room with a library and grand piano, a large and fully-equipped, eat-in kitchen and a bathroom.

A precious wrought-iron staircase leads you upstairs, where you can find four bedrooms (two of them, direct lake-facing) and two bathrooms; the master bedroom features a wide, en suite bath. On the next level up are two more bedrooms, two bathrooms (one of them with a laundry area), two attics (generally used as storerooms) and a spectacular wide, square turret with direct lake views.

The house is less than two minutes from the border of Switzerland, and just a few kilometers from both Lake Como and Maggiore. The picturesque village of Porto Ceresio is itself just a few kilometers from great Swiss skiing (the trails and slopes of Monte Tamaro), and is in close proximity to the international airports of both Milan (Malpensa) and Lugano; not to mention the Campione d’Italia and Lugano Casinos...easily accessible by car, yacht or motorboat.
