Villa Concetta is a Liberty-style villa from 1911 on the hill above Argegno, on the western shore of Lake Como. It faces south-east, so the garden has sun from early morning until late afternoon, and the views run up the lake to Punta Balbianello and Comacina Island. For many years an American club rented the whole house every season, so it has been off the market. Two years of restoration and enlargement, finished in 2026, kept the stone floors, wrought iron and original facade and added Molteni & C living rooms and kitchen, a Gio Ponti dining table and vintage Bauhaus pieces. Five suites and a single room sleep eleven, each with its own bathroom, and a resident chef and housekeeper look after the house. Breakfast is included every day, and the chef cooks lunch and dinner on request.
