“This lake exceeds anything I ever beheld in beauty….. It is long and narrow, and has the appearance of a mighty river winding among the mountains and the forests”. - P B Shelley 1818
This two bedroom two bathroom luxury garden apartment is situated in the charming village of Colonno overlooking beautiful Lake Como and with stunning views of the lake and towards the mountains of the Italian Alpi Orobie and the Swiss Rhaetian Alps.
The apartment is newly completed (2008) and is a ground floor garden flat in a prestigious block of six luxury homes designed as a residential development, arranged in two groups of three with a central lift and named Le Terrazze. The flat has its own private garage for secure off road parking at the road level and like many lakeside developments, is built on the side of the hill to maximize the views and from whence it gets its name (The Terraces).
The apartment has a beautiful landscaped garden on two levels filled with jasmine, roses, palm trees and wisteria and with a small but completely private heated swimming pool for the exclusive use of this apartment. The apartment is just 60 metres laterally and 60 metres above Lake Como, so you get a real sense of closeness. No distant lake glimpses here.
The apartment is offered with two double beds for to maximum of four adults. Parties of three with one child will be considered on to case by case basis. Exceptionally, small dogs will also be considered with prior arrangements and an additional cleaning fee.
