Set on the northeastern banks of Lake Como, this home treats its guests to postcard views and enviable outdoor living facilities. From poolside barbecues to hot tub sunset-watching, and post-badminton picnics to table tennis hangouts, this villa offers a unique interior design with huge windows that invite you outside at all hours. On your doorstep, it's watersports galore. And while a local shop and restaurant await a five-minute walk away, we think the 7.5-kilometre drive to Colico is an afternoon well spent.
