Tucked away in the charming Castello district of Gravedona, on the sun-kissed western shore of Lake Como, stands a villa of extraordinary beauty and rare historical value—a masterpiece of 18th-century architecture surrounded by nature, art, and silence. This noble residence, with over 1,000 square metres of interiors and a 3,500-square-metre botanical park, is not just a home—it’s a living piece of Italian heritage. A sanctuary where frescoed ceilings whisper stories from centuries past, and where every room evokes a sense of timeless grace. Where History Meets Harmony First recorded in the Teresian maps of 1718 as the Oratory of the Blessed Virgin, the villa was later transformed in 1798 by Count Guido Omboni of Milan into a noble family home. Today, it continues to honour that legacy with soaring vaulted ceilings, richly decorated with unique 19th-century frescoes, grand fireplaces, and statues dedicated to Savina Sperati, the Count’s beloved wife. Authentic materials—veined Lombard terracotta and ancient stone—imbue the spaces with warmth, character, and the unmistakable charm of a bygone era. A Ground Floor Designed for Living and Entertaining Step inside and discover a series of enchanting rooms, each crafted to impress and inspire: The “cucinone”, a grand, vaulted kitchen designed for gathering, complete with a traditional cooking fireplace and walls lined with antique copper cookware. An elegant salone, bathed in natural light, featuring a magnificent Murano glass chandelier and direct access to the garden. A dining room where bucolic ceiling frescoes and antique majolica tiles create an atmosphere of rural romance. A music and sitting room with pergola-style ceiling frescoes—ideal for quiet reflection or artistic pursuits. A tranquil reading room, with windows opening onto the peaceful village below. A Park That Tells Its Own Story The villa’s botanical park, originally designed in the 9th century, is an enchanting private Eden. Stroll under shaded paths lined with azaleas, oleanders, camellias, and araucarias. Discover a hidden tuff gallery that leads to historical greenhouses and a secret rose garden. Pause at the panoramic terrace, where an unexpected and captivating view of Lake Como and Monte Legnone awaits. A Rare Opportunity for Living or Investment Whether you’re seeking a prestigious private residence or a location for exclusive hospitality, this property offers endless potential. Its unique character has already made it a sought-after venue for luxury weddings, editorial photo shoots, and intimate cultural events. Owning this villa means owning a fragment of Lake Como’s soul—a legacy to preserve, celebrate, and share. Unrivalled Location Perfectly positioned to combine privacy with accessibility, the villa is located just: 44 km from Lugano 52 km from Como 80 km from St. Moritz 115 km from Milan This is not simply a home—it is a chapter of Italian history waiting to be lived again.
