Description
Strolling through the green woods on the hillside of Stresa, in the village of Gignese, a historic locality on the slopes of Mottarone renowned for its golf courses and splendid residences and for lovers of nature and tranquillity, one cannot fail to notice this charming villa that has maintained an authentic flavour and timeless charm over the years. Built around 1930 and completely renovated in 1986 by the current owners near the "Sasso Papale", in honour of an ancient legend that claimed St. Peter stopped to admire this huge rock while wandering on the slopes of Mottarone, the property is surrounded by a well-planted park with tall trees and lake essences of 3,140 square metres. The entrance on the ground floor leads to the spacious and bright living room with a large fireplace, a beautiful bow window and the dining area with original parquet flooring of the period, to the study and billiard room, both with access to the terrace, as well as to the kitchen and bathroom. A splendid original granite staircase leads to the first floor composed of two bedrooms with terrace, another attic bedroom, double bathroom, hobby room and storage room. The property is completed by a cellar and the technical room with condensing boiler fuelled by methane gas replaced in 2018. This Villa Lago Maggiore, is suitable for those who would like an elegant and refined residence, far from the chaos of the city, to be used as their own home or as a charming accommodation, well suited to this purpose given the tourist vocation of the area.
