Evania

Welcome to Villa Evania, an elegant 4-bedroom home perched on the western hills overlooking the spectacular waters below; this property is the perfect base for exploring all the natural beauty and rich history Lake Como has to offer. The area is world-famous for its many picturesque towns and winding narrow roads that offer breathtaking views of the glittering waters below. Lake Como has something to offer to all types of travelers, whether you desire to steep yourself in the rich history and architecture, explore the unspoiled scenery, or seek the thrill of adventure.

For those looking to do more than traditional sightseeing, view the unspoiled beauty of the lake and surrounding rolling hills by seaplane or hop on the funicular (hillside trolley) to Brunate and enjoy spectacular views from above. For groups large or small, a boat tour, organized by our concierge service to allow you to enjoy all the lake has to offer from the water. From having fun spotting properties owned by the rich and famous (Donatella Versace, Madonna, and George Clooney, among others) to explore the narrow, cobbled streets of the towns further up the lake, this experience offers something for all of your guests. Sports enthusiasts will not be disappointed with water-skiing, windsurfing, and wakeboarding all on offer right on the lake. For those looking for the experience of a lifetime, it is possible to paraglide off of Mount Nuvolone, soaring over the water and towns below. Bikers have a plethora of natural trails to explore, leading through the lush greenery of the mountains or even a hidden pebble beach to cool off. Enjoy a round of golf or tennis at one of the many locations across the lake region. Lake Como has something for everyone! With fashion-capital Milan just 45 minutes away, it's no wonder that Lake Como also offers excellent designer shopping.

Villa Evania enjoys all the style and architectural details of a traditional villa including art deco-colored-glass windows, parquet floors, marbled columns, and elegant interiors. However, the recent renovations, modern heated swimming pool, whirlpool area teamed with the property’s Instagrammable views ensure this is a stay you won’t forget. A few steps from the garden, a private pool, and furnished sundeck offer a serene space to repose, sip on a refreshing cocktail and even develop a tan.

The villas' timeless exterior is complemented by a private, manicured garden perfect for families with younger children to run around in after spending the morning splashing in the pool. The surrounding terrace overlooks the crystalline water of the lake and the panoramic peaks in the distance. The outdoor space featuring mature vegetation, a statue, and even a small flowing fountain is an oasis of relaxation. It is the perfect setting to unwind as you sip on your morning cappuccino in the fresh breeze blowing from the lake. In the evening, with the heat of the afternoon sun still lingering on the air, you can enjoy a casual al fresco dinner with your friends or family as the lights of the town opposite spark off the water below.

The elegant interiors boast rich moldings, stucco ceilings, wrought iron handrails, red marble wainscotting, and a local stone staircase. The double-size sitting room is bright and inviting thanks to several double French doors that lead straight onto the terrace, and allow an indoor-outdoor style of living. The balance of tasteful antiques with stylish modern upholstered furniture maintains a fresh and crisp feeling to the space. Perfect for entertaining, the villa’s separate dining room comfortably sits 10 with additional sitting space outside in a dedicated alfresco area on the terrace. With the touch of an app, the audio system inside and outside can be changed to set the ambiance. A fully equipped modern kitchen with all you need to prepare good food to enjoy and share with your favorite people, a guest bathroom, and laundry facilities complete this floor.
