Mountain Gate

Mountain Gate: Lombardy

Nestled in a forest within three acres of private grounds, this quintessential 1960s villa designed by iconic architect Gio Ponti boasts spectacular views of Lake Como and its surrounding mountains. With a swimming pool, hot tub, and sauna alongside a large garden, this home is great for families. The interior is adequately retro, with several original designer pieces. All six bedrooms enjoy gorgeous views, and five have access to outdoor spaces like balconies. You'll have total privacy and seclusion here – due to the rural location, we highly recommend having a car in order to explore the nearby villages and discover some of Lake Como's best restaurants and local activities.
