LAKE COMO

A panoramic 30-minute drive from Como, along the stunning shore of the most iconic Italian lake, Cira is a contemporary villa that combines comfort, style and a stunning location. This pieds dans l’eau property stands apart for its unique characteristics, the traditional stone structure and the original and colorful interiors and intriguing accents. The sprawling private garden (more than 16,000 sf) spreads along the shore and offers direct access to the water by a private gate. Cira is an intimate villa, infused with sunlight and granting picture-perfect water views and it is waiting for you to indulge in its delights.

LIVING SPACES
The uber-modern sitting room features sleek sofas with sculptural silhouette, a double-side open stone fireplace, and the parquet floors add warmth to the space. The secret weapon in this room however is the hyper-crisp lime green wall which adds vibrancy and panache to the room. Two picture windows facing the lake let the restorative sunlight in. A generous opening leads to the open floor kitchen/dining room. It is a delight having breakfast here, or enjoying the meals all together. The space is flooded with natural light coming through the skylight and the windows. Two wooden tables joined together can seat up to 10 guests, if separated they double as work/play surfaces if needed.

OUTDOOR FEATURES
One of the real pleasures of this villa is enjoying its outdoor space. The large manicured lawn shaded by olive and cypress trees is an oasis of tranquility while you marvel at the unrivaled water views. You can also dine al fresco under the panoramic loggia where the ever-changing scenery of the lights of the cruising sail boats caresses your senses. Besides sunbathing, you can certainly swim in the water in front of the villa, and for the guests who desire to have the services of an equipped beach establishment they can find it at walking distance from the property.

SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS
Cira is where traditional and contemporary live in perfect harmony. This charming villa reflects the ideal lake living where you can enjoy the romantic combination of water and mountains. If you do not wish to drive, the closest bus stop is just 100 meters from the property.

The area of Lake Como is abundant in picturesque towns with narrow cobbled streets, breathtaking views, and lovely homes and gardens, best visited from late spring to early fall. Take a stroll through the city of Como to enjoy its history and architecture, then hop on the ferry and head north to visit other towns on the lakeshore.
However, there is more to do in this area than traditional sightseeing. Visitors can book a flight over the lake by seaplane or take the funiculare (hillside trolley) to Brunate and enjoy spectacular views from above. Extreme sports enthusiasts can enjoy paragliding off of Mount Nuvolone. Small and large groups alike can book boat tours with our concierge to enjoy the lake from the water, having fun spotting properties owned by the rich and famous (Donatella Versace, Madonna, and George Clooney, among others).
For the more adventurous, Lake Como also offers water-skiing, wind surfing, and wake boarding. Bikers will surely enjoy the natural trails that lead to the mountains or even hidden pebbled beaches. Go for a round of golf or tennis at one of the many locations across the lake region. Lake Como has something for everyone! With fashion-capital Milan just 45 minutes away, it’s no wonder that Lake Como also offers excellent designer shopping.

Lombardia and The Lakes

Lombardia is located at the very north of Italy and borders with Switzerland and the Alps. Home to the industrial capital city of Milan which is perhaps the biggest centre in the world for fashion with names like Armani, Prada, and Gucci all residing in Milans ‘Golden Quad’.  The local people of Milan take great pride in the way they dress and it can often seem they are all on a catwalk as they quickly march through the streets.

Milan is also the finance powerhouse of the country, and is not driven by tourism. The city itself is fast passed, and a great place to visit if you are a serious shopper.

The main attractions in Milan include Il Duomo di Milano, Leonardo Da Vincis last supper, La Scala opera house, and the Castello Sforzesco.
