Located in Ghiffa (Piedmont) on the shores of Lake Maggiore, Villa Volpi is a small paradise and one of the largest Art Nouveau villas in the town. The historic property, built in 1908, exudes an atmosphere that reflects the glitz and glamor of the turn of the century. No other building in Ghiffa embodies the timeless style and freedom of that era, which is further emphasized by the surrounding parkland with its sweeping views of the lake. The property is named after a general who purchased it in what was then the Kingdom of Italy.

 

Oasis of privacy

Perched on a hill on the shores of the lake, the estate offers unsurpassed privacy. The gardens and park, with their enchanted paths, centuries-old trees and typical vegetation of the region, are a true testament to Italian horticultural art.

 

A historical masterpiece

Everything here has been designed with extraordinary care and refinement, down to the smallest detail, to preserve the original character and charm. The building extends over three floors, which can be reached through the staircase, generously decorated in marble and frescoed. There are a total of 30 rooms in the house, including ten bedrooms.

 

Guest houses and private beach

There are two guest houses and a janitor's house in the park. As with many other prestigious villas along the upper Italian lakes, this property includes a private beach with an exclusive access bridge and two docks for boats.

The small village of Ghiffa is located about 6 km northeast of Verbania. The property is located at a distance of about 3 kilometers from Villa Poss, which is also for sale.
