Description

In the beautiful setting of Gignese, on the heights of Stresa, in a quiet and strategic context due to its proximity to the golf courses and the highway, charming house in the historic center of the hamlet of Vezzo, which enjoys an excellent southern exposure to the sun. The house, renovated in the early 90s, has a beautiful flat garden of about 350sqm, full of typical lake plants such as rhododendrons, azaleas, and camellias, in addition to the beautiful wisteria that in warm weather shadows the outdoor pergola, allowing pleasant outdoor lunches and dinners, using a beautiful outdoor stone barbecue. The house, free on four sides, is arranged on 3 living levels. The entrance leads to the living area consisting of a double living room, one of which has a fireplace, and a large kitchen of 25sqm, fully equipped, also with exit to the garden. The upper floor houses the master bedroom with private balcony and en suite bathroom with velux, a second double bedroom also with en suite windowed bathroom and a third double bedroom with separate windowed bathroom. Finally, on the second and top floor there is a spacious living room, currently used as a billiard room, and a bedroom, both with exposed roof beams. A garage with separate access, a cellar and a room in the basement with a sauna and steam room complete the offer. The unique style and traditional Italian charm, excellent sun exposure and proximity to the highway exit to Milan, Malpensa International Airport or Switzerland make this property a smart choice for use as a first home, vacation home or profitable B&B business for those seeking a refined oasis of tranquility in the heart of the Italian lakes.

Location: Gignese, Vezzo

Gignese is a renowned resort town that lies halfway between Stresa and Mottarone, as well as on the Due Riviere road that connects Lake Maggiore with Lake Orta. In the mid-19th century it was the vacation destination of the most renowned Lombard painters, and numerous villas sprang up in this era that breathed new life into the village. Right here is the beautiful Alpinia Botanical Garden, a 40,000sqm park that is home to many botanical species from the alpine and subalpine belt from various parts of the world. From Gignese you will have the possibility to quickly reach Stresa and visit the beauties offered by the pearl of Lake Maggiore such as the gardens and the sumptuous palaces of the Borromean Islands, or spend days of sporting activities near Mottarone, a mountain of about 1,500m above sea level that in winter becomes a ski resort and in summer offers beautiful trekking walks but also adrenaline thrills with Alpyland, a roller coaster with two-seater wagons overlooking the Borromean Gulf. There are several restaurants in Gignese and on the top of Mottarone, where you can taste simple traditional local dishes, absolutely healthy cuisine and an expert eye on the choice of raw materials, always of the highest quality. Very characteristic is the hamlet of Vezzo, believed to be of Roman, if not Gallic, origin. The village had some notable families, with ecclesiastics, notaries and public officials: Visconti, Calandra, De Antonis. The most characteristic spot in the village is the small central square or Piazza Caduti where, at the foot of the pink granite steps leading up to the parish church, there is a centuries-old horse chestnut tree surrounded by a sarizzo ring, formerly a well vera. Vezzo is also home to the famous 9-hole Stresa Alpino Golf Club; founded in 1924, it is one of the oldest courses in Italy. The club is situated on a green natural terrace at 700 meters above sea level and is located in one of the most characteristic areas of Lake Maggiore among beautiful natural and centuries-old forests only 7 km from Stresa. Of interest are the offerings of its restaurant lit by large windows overlooking hole 9, with a terrace for outdoor dining surrounded by greenery.
