Villa Brusati stands proudly as a three-storey residence along the front of Lake Lugano. Located in Italy, its proximity to the Swiss borders allows you to explore charming towns in both countries. The expansive house features a thoughtful layout, with kitchens, living areas, and bedrooms thoughtfully distributed across its three floors.
While some rooms exude a modern aesthetic, others showcase charming period details such as grand open fireplaces and rustic ceiling beams. A unique section of the home is even set within the walls of an ancient cave, where the rugged cave walls are on display in the spacious kitchen within that distinctive space.
With three living rooms, including a formal sitting room and a vast central living space adorned with sofas, a grand piano, a bar trolley, and a fireplace, the heart of the home resides in this welcoming area. Doors opening onto the terrace make it an ideal spot for evening drinks. An additional living room with comfortable sofas, a fireplace, and a TV offers a cosy space for movie nights. The house also boasts three kitchens: a large, fully-equipped kitchen with a generous dining area and two smaller kitchens. You can dine indoors in the two large dining areas or head out on the terrace for dinner with lake views.
The numerous bedrooms beckon for a restful night's sleep as the day winds down. Two double bedrooms boast en-suite bathrooms, complemented by five more double bedrooms. These rooms share four additional bathrooms, offering a mix of bath and shower facilities. If additional space is required, up to ten extra beds are available, along with another expansive bedroom.
Outside, Villa Brusati offers unparalleled views of the glistening Lake Lugano. Expansive wraparound terraces, well-tended garden spaces, an al-fresco dining table, and comfortable sun loungers complete the outdoor ambience, providing an ideal setting to soak in the natural beauty of the surroundings.
Villa Brusati is a beautiful base for visiting towns and villages dotted along the lakes' shore, including Porlezza and the Swiss city of Lugano. You can also easily access the lake from the home and reach the lake beaches. Water sports, boat trips and day trips to Lake Como are also possible during your stay.
- Due to the age of the home, some of the ceilings are sloping.
- The house is set across 3 separate buildings and has multiple kitchens and living rooms set out between the floors, perfect for large groups or families using the space.
- When booking at the minimum capacity of 10 persons, guests will have access to the main villa only.
- If you wish to use the boat and the car, this can be arranged. There is parking on-site if you prefer to hire your own car.
- If you require additional sleeping space, there is a multi bedroom with up to ten extra beds, which can be requested.
