Un joyau caché à Menaggio – Appartement élégant avec terrasse & vue lac

Just steps from Lake Como, this stunning hillside apartment is a hidden gem nestled in the picturesque town of Menaggio. Located on the ground floor of a charming period condominium, this beautifully situated property is just a 3-minute walk from the lakefront and offers breathtaking views across the shimmering water and surrounding mountains. Refined, spacious, and elegantly appointed, the apartment comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests—making it the ideal holiday home-from-home for families or groups of friends seeking tranquility, natural beauty, and convenience on one of Italy’s most iconic lakes.

Inside, the apartment blends timeless elegance with modern comfort in a bright, airy interior. The heart of the home is a large open-plan living and dining area where tall French windows and soaring ceilings invite in light and fresh lake air. Two plush sofas offer the perfect spot to unwind after a day of sightseeing, while a flat-screen TV provides entertainment for cozy evenings. The adjacent dining area features a classic wooden table and chairs, setting the stage for memorable meals and relaxed conversation. The entire space exudes warmth, sophistication, and an inviting sense of understated luxury.

Across the hallway, a fully equipped contemporary kitchen makes cooking a joy. Fitted with a cooker hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, and coffee machine, the kitchen is stocked with all the essentials for preparing delicious meals at home. A small breakfast table with stools creates a convenient space for casual snacks or morning coffee. Whether you're cooking with fresh ingredients from the local farmers' market or enjoying local takeout, the kitchen adds both style and practicality to your stay.

Step outside from the living room to your private lake-view terrace—an enchanting space that captures the essence of lakeside living. Bordered by an original stone balustrade, the terrace looks directly out over Lake Como, with the majestic mountains rising in the distance. A bistro-style table and chairs shaded by a large parasol make this the perfect spot for morning espressos, leisurely lunches, or romantic sunset dinners. From the terrace, a graceful flight of traditional stone steps leads down to the shared garden below—a beautifully landscaped area ideal for sunbathing, reading, or letting children play.

The apartment offers four thoughtfully designed bedrooms, combining style with serene comfort. Two of the bedrooms feature elegant double beds, generous storage space, and calming lake views—making mornings especially beautiful. The other two bedrooms each include a pair of single beds, ideal for children or additional guests. Tastefully decorated in soft, neutral tones, all the rooms encourage restful sleep and peaceful downtime.

Two bathrooms ensure convenience for all guests. The main bathroom is spacious and modern, equipped with a full bathtub and shower, basin, bidet, and WC. A second bathroom provides an additional WC and basin, perfect for busy mornings or accommodating larger groups comfortably.

A wide range of amenities ensures a seamless and enjoyable stay. The apartment includes air conditioning, central heating, free Wi-Fi, a hairdryer, and a washing machine. A BBQ is also available for guests who enjoy outdoor dining. Child-friendly and ideally located, the apartment also includes garage parking—although a car isn’t necessary thanks to the central location. Please note that pets are not permitted. For groups under 21, a refundable damage deposit of €500 is required and payable locally.
