Located in a prime, sunny spot in the municipality of Carate Urio, Villa Rosa is a charming property dating back to the 1930s that underwent a complete renovation completed in 2025. The residence stands out for the extraordinary brightness of its rooms and for the unobstructed view of Lake Como that characterizes every level of the building. Spanning a total of four floors, the villa offers a functional and modern layout, with all levels connected by both an internal staircase and the convenience of an elevator, ensuring the property is fully accessible. The interior finishes feature high-quality materials, blending the charm of terracotta with the elegance of hardwood flooring. The ground floor is entirely dedicated to the living area, where the entrance leads to a spacious and bright living room. The kitchen has been designed as a separate, functional workspace, adjacent to a dedicated dining room, thus ensuring a clear distinction between the cooking area and the dining area; this floor is completed by a guest bathroom. The sleeping quarters are strategically located on the upper levels to ensure maximum privacy: the first floor features two bedrooms and two en-suite bathrooms, while the second floor houses two additional bedrooms and a bathroom. Both levels feature private balconies offering direct views of the lake. The top level of the property consists of an attic space, a versatile area that can be adapted for various uses depending on your needs. The villa’s value is further enhanced by a huge panoramic terrace with a breathtaking view of the lake and a private garden surrounding the home—ideal for outdoor relaxation. To further enhance the property, plans for the construction of a future swimming pool have already been approved—an exclusive feature that would transform the garden into a true oasis of well-being. Thanks to the recent renovation of the systems and finishes, Villa Rosa represents an extraordinary opportunity for those seeking a move-in-ready home that combines the historic charm of the 1930s with the technology of 2025 in one of Lake Como’s most exclusive locations. The property listing includes some images created or modified with the help of artificial intelligence; these do not reflect the property’s current condition but illustrate a potential future configuration.

Carate Urio is a picturesque village on the western shore of Lake Como, adjacent to Laglio—the village where George Clooney’s villa is located—and to Cernobbio, home to the prestigious Grand Hotel Villa d’Este. Carate Urio is about a ten-minute drive from the Lago di Como highway exit on the Milan–Lugano route. From here, both cities can be reached in about thirty minutes by car. Milan Malpensa International Airport is about a thirty-minute drive away, while the city of Como is about ten minutes away. The bus service is also very convenient, with a stop right next to the house for sale; thanks to this service, the towns of Argegno, Menaggio, and Como are easily accessible, with a stop at the Como San Giovanni international train station as well. Carate Urio is also well-connected, thanks to the Navigazione Laghi ferry service, to Cernobbio, Como, Bellagio, and Menaggio.
