Experience the most breathtaking views in all of Italy from your hilltop escape at Villa del Sol. Enjoy the perfect Italian getaway at this magnificent chalet-style villa, located near Bellagio, The Pearl of Lake Como. From your elevated vantage point, you’ll witness sweeping views that have brought people to the region since Roman times. Look out to all three branches of the lake, terraced fields, verdant rolling hills, and in the distance, the snow-capped Alps. At this villa, you’ll experience a feeling of complete privacy. The property features lush outdoor living spaces for taking in the scenery with a morning espresso, or a Chianti in the evening. During the day, soak up the sun around the pool while La Dolce Vita continues below in the hamlet of Pescallo, as it has for centuries. Bring home fresh ingredients from the market and prepare an Italian feast to savor al fresco. Inside, rustic stacked-stone pillars support lovely vaulted ceilings. Enjoy the view through tall picture windows. Feel the warm sunlight shine through, bouncing off the warm wood flooring. The great room holds a quaint dining room, and a lounge area for quiet afternoons with a book. You’ll find ample storage space and high-end appliances in the fully-equipped kitchen. Upstairs, a cozy living room houses has a chaise longue, and an adjacent deck with spectacular lake views. Each of the three bedrooms feature soft European linens and inspired views. Two bedrooms, including the Master suite, are found on the ground floor. One bedroom resides upstairs, under the charming slant of the A-framed roof. Each room has access to its own beautifully tiled, and well-appointed bathroom with premium fixtures. If it’s the opposite of rest you seek, head to the lower level where you’ll find a gym. Lake Como is made for exploring. Bellagio is a beautiful five minute walk away. There you can visit gardens, sip fine coffee or dine along the waterfront. An efficient ferry service stops at almost every town on the lake. You can get to Lecco in 35 minutes and Como in 45 minutes. Go on hikes through the hills (don’t forget a picnic basket) or partake in water sports. Love every moment, but remember the local custom of letting life slow down a bit. Copyright © Luxury Retreats.
