In an enviable position facing Lake Maggiore, this beautiful and historic Italian villa is set in exquisite grounds with an Italian garden and private swimming pool, just a few steps away from restaurants, a marina, boat rental and a wonderful lakeside promenade.
On the western shores of Lake Maggiore, Villa Rododendro dates back to the early 1900s and has been expertly renovated over recent years to enhance its original style whilst the addition of contemporary features brings it into the 21st century.
The impressive living room has been furnished with designer sofas, a Smart TV, a Bluetooth sound system, and a piano. The conservatory-style lounge, with its coloured windows, looks out to the palm trees and mountains. Admire the antique parquet flooring of the dining room before stepping into the modern kitchen.
On the upper two floors, you will find six bedrooms that accommodate up to 10 guests and two bathrooms on each floor. Some have balconies, and others have views towards the garden and lake. The grand terrace, reached via the first floor, is simply stunning with its traditional tiles and deckchairs, perfect for an aperitif in gorgeous surroundings.
Enjoy feasts with family and friends in the covered portico or set out shady lunches beneath the large evergreen tree beside the swimming pool and elegant terrace.
Heading out of your gated grounds, the lakeside promenade and pretty marina are a few steps away. There are restaurants a short stroll away, and the neighbouring hotel (once the villa owner’s factory) has a watersports centre with seasonal pedalo hire, kayaks and paddle boards. A little further along is a gorgeous beach with pebbled shores and the most idyllic outlook as you paddle or swim in the lake.
