Lake Maggiore: Historic estates for sale

Exclusive villas and historical residences along the popular lake in Northern Italy

With a year-round mild climate and a multitude of historic villas that harmoniously blend into the impressive backdrop of the lake and Alps, the Lake Maggiore is not only one of the most sought-after holiday destinations in Italy, but also an exclusive residential area for discerning individuals, attracting two million visitors annually.

The magnificent villas, flourishing in the 19th century, were erected by renowned personalities and industrialists. To this day, they exert a magnetic allure on the international elite and continue to be coveted residences and holiday homes. Purchase prices vary significantly depending on the precise location within the region. While villas in the hinterland or farther from the lake are offered in the six-figure range, prices for residences directly on the lakefront, even in need of modernization, almost always start in the seven-figure range.

Due to the international demand for historic properties at Lago Maggiore and in Northern Italy, reputable real estate agencies have multilingual staff, often fluent in English and German.

Respected real estate agencies operating in neighboring lakes such as the Como Lake also provide multilingual support to international prospective buyers.
