Throughout the villa internal walls are finished with Venetian plaster (another example of Italian luxurious finishing) with designer doors and beautiful very modern light fittings. This villa has been completely furnished with modern and high-quality furniture and has the added benefit of being immediately habitable upon completion.

The sumptuous Health Suite mirrors the superb finishes of the villas and includes a solarium, 2 pools, a whirlpool and sauna. The villa given its size, location and proximity and convenience to all services would be ideal as a main residence or equally a second home given the stunning views and ease of maintenance. The villa can boast one of the most beautiful views of Lake Como, which can be enjoyed from the terrace which overlooks Isola Comacina (the only island in the lake) and the ‘Punta del Balbianello’ where one of the most beautiful villas of the Lake, Villa Balbianello, is situated. The lake can be accessed by foot along with all services such as restaurants, grocery, bank, etc. For keen walkers there is also the Greenway, which is a pedestrian walkway that runs from Colonno to Griante from which there are some magnificent views and which passes directly below the Residence. The Greenway also provides access and makes it easy to reach Ossuccio and Lenno which offer further attractions and additional services.
Casa Travella was founded in 1987 when Linda & Pietro Travella saw an opportunity to offer Italian property for sale. At this time there were very few companies that offered any property for sale in Italy. Now years later read some of their story.
The company is fronted by Linda Travella and Casa Travella started selling property on Lake Como, where Pietro was born and Linda has worked and lived. The company were able to offer advice on numerous properties and ongoing help with all aspects of the buying process. If a client wants to restore a property, then Casa Travella can source tradesmen and professionals in the area and help with every aspect of the transaction.
When the BBC were looking for someone to speak on BBC Breakfast News about European property Linda was chosen to appear live on the programme. Other TV and radio programmes followed including Radio 5 Live, and ‘I want that House’ with Mark Simpkins, where Linda appeared in 6 episodes, the last one being a live programme from Florida, where an Italian apartment was given away as a prize. Linda appeared for RTE, Irish TV and for Channel 4‘s ‘A Place in the Sun’, where she accompanied Amanda Lamb along the shores of Lake Como by boat, to show her some of the stunning villas, including the one owned by George Clooney.
The Casa Travella team are always pleased to help when clients want to buy or sell a property in Italy. The office is multilingual with English, Italian and Spanish being spoken.
Linda says: ‘I feel proud that we can offer property for sale in many areas of Italy and we are able to give clients independent and professional advice on areas and types of property to suit their budget and needs.’
The Casa Travella team look forward to helping you buy or sell your Italian home.
