The view from this home’s private terrace is surely the envy of every building in town. From the wrought-iron bistro set beneath the pergola, your eyes can feast on a panorama of sparkling Lake Como, flanked by snow-capped mountains as orange-roofed villages tumble down the hillsides.

Inside, the plush sofa is aimed at the French doors, rather than the TV, so you can enjoy the view whatever the weather. A huge archway opens the living room up to the dine-in kitchen, and there’s a traditional wall-press filled with holiday reads for a quiet moment. Bedrooms are calming spaces in soothing neutral palettes and the master benefits from corner windows looking out to the mountains. 

You’re on a street in Argegno's old centre, right on the water. The lakeside swimming pool is a five-minute walk away, along with the ferry stop ready to whisk you across Lake Como to the likes of Bellagio, Menaggio or Varenna. Or, just stick around Argegno and enjoy the bars and restaurants that lace the town.

This lakeside villa in Argegno, a sleepy town near the Swiss border, is the stuff that dreams are made of. Stylish and perfectly located, it's the ideal spot for a group of friends or family who are ready to fall in love with the stunning Como landscapes. 

Step inside, and you'll find a serene space that will help you settle in within no time at all. The sage green sofas, sleek breakfast bar, and home office provide plenty of places to work or relax, depending on your plans for the day. Huge windows flood the rooms with natural light and frame the fantastic views of the lake. Slide open the patio doors and head out to the patio, where you can breathe in the fresh mountain air as you admire the stunning vistas across the water. There's even a Jacuzzi to soak in, and an alfresco dining area for long, lavish meals – and your host will provide a chilled bottle of Prosecco. 

If you want to take a boat trip, then the marina is just a five-minute walk away from your front door, and you'll also find an outdoor lakeside swimming pool where you can take a dip. Hikers can join one of the local trails for an invigorating hike through the incredible scenery, and when you get hungry you can take your pick from the traditional Italian restaurants back in Argegno.

Nestled at the foot of the Swiss Alps, you'll find the Italian-speaking town of Locarno. This smart apartment is right in the centre of this melting-pot, and makes the perfect place to begin your adventures in this uniquely beautiful region.

The interior is a charming and contemporary space that invites you to flop down and chill out. When you get hungry, there's a well-equipped kitchen where you can whip up your favourite dishes – and, you simply must indulge in a fondue night at least once during your stay. Plus, you'll even have your very own balcony, which makes the perfect place to sip a sundowner as you gaze out towards the mountain peaks in the distance.

The shore of Lago Maggiore is just a few minutes away on foot, where you can arrange a boat tour or take a leisurely stroll on dry land. Enjoy a revitalising dip in the thermal baths at Lido Locarno, then pay a visit to the striking Piazza Grande. And, if you're feeling adventurous, you can go mountain biking, hiking, or even paragliding in the mountains just north of the town. 

Alpine Gateway

If you're looking for a home with a view, then they don't get much more awe-inspiring than this. Right on the edge of Lake Como, this sweet apartment offers sweeping vistas across the water and a wonderfully peaceful setting. 

The interior is modern yet welcoming, cloaked in soothing neutral shades. The windows usher in plenty of natural light, and we loved the charming wooden ceilings. However, the jewel in the crown of this home is the outdoor space. Simply wake up and open up the patio doors to step right onto the balcony – it's the perfect place to sip your morning coffee. There's also a terrace with sun loungers where you can admire the sweeping landscapes, and even access to your own tiny beach if you fancy a paddle. 

If you feel like getting out onto the water, then there are a few boat rental companies just a short stroll away. However, if you would prefer to stay on dry land, then there are a few restaurants where you can sip a glass of wine and admire the boats from afar. Plus, the town of Bellagio is just a fifteen-minute car ride away – wander through the cobbled streets, gelato in hand, before taking a stroll through Villa Serbelloni Park. 

Sparkling Water

Offering stunning views of Lake Como, this home is ideal for those looking to experience the best of the area’s dramatic scenery, all while benefitting from a comfortable, modern stay. Given its layout over three floors, you’ll need to be prepared for a workout here. But waking up to glorious views 200 metres above the lake is reward enough, we think. With a freestanding tub, a fireplace in the living room and a picturesque lawn equipped with outdoor seating, there’s plenty to appreciate here outside and in. 


Como From Above

You’ll find this charming apartment in Laglio, making it an ideal base for a family or group of friends on a trip to Como. Inside, the home has a rather traditional feel, but we think that adds to its charm. The standout feature is the balcony, with picture-perfect views across Lake Como – vistas which can be enjoyed from many places inside the home, too. From this prime location, scenic boat trips or indulging in authentic Italian cuisine at a local restaurant is a breeze – what more could you want?
