The House Between the Lakes. A unique place between Lake Como and Lake Lugano.

Tranquility and privacy describe this house well, one of a kind. Located in Laino in Val D'Intelvi, on a hill between Lake Como and Lake Lugano, you will find yourself immersed in nature far from the chaos. Furnished with unique pieces, every detail is taken care of. You can relax looking at the stars or sunbathing. A few steps from the lakes where you can decide to take a boat ride or simply take a swim, you can visit well-preserved historic villages or dine by candlelight thanks to a private chef who will be able to pamper you during a special occasion. The property is set within a beautiful landscape context, in which you can also discover very interesting places from an archaeological and artistic point of view, thanks to the fundamental contribution of the Cumacini Magistri, custodians of building and artistic art from the 7th century until the Romanesque. A few steps away you will find the Church of San Vittore, built on the ruins of an ancient Roman castle which served as a lookout for possible incursions from the north. A few minutes by car you can visit Villa Fogazzaro-Roi, Villa Balbianello, Villa Carlotta, or walk along the lakeside of Argegno, Porlezza, Gandria, Menaggio, Lugano.
Outside the house you will find a vast lawn available and you can lie down in the shade of the walnut trees, or simply take a hot shower overlooking the valley. Otherwise you can take advantage of the outdoor lounge under the gazebo.
Internally, on the ground floor, a large living room with sofa, armchairs, bar area, television, as well as a fully furnished kitchen with burners and professional oven. Also on the ground floor you will find the bathroom with tadelakt finishes like in Moroccan hammams and a large shower. The style double bedroom is a real gem. There is also a laundry room with washing machine and clothesline. Upstairs you will find the bedroom, also in style with exposed beams. You can park comfortably inside the property, where you can also find space for bicycles, kayaks and anything else useful for your excursions.
