Why they chose this property:
Because Lake Como is probably one of the most spectacular places on Earth. That is why movie stars choose it to buy properties. The Ivy House is one of the most unique houses in an Historical Area of Menaggio. We immediatley fell in love with it, as soon as we saw it for sale.
What makes this property unique:
An extremely quiet and cool location. Excellent to relax after days of moving around visiting other places... ideal also for a winter holiday. We are just one hour and fifteen minutes away from top quality ski and cross country areas.
