We’re proud to share the completion of our latest renovation project: the restoration of a historic home on the shores of one of Lake Como’s most charming villages.
A home once hidden beneath layers of neglect and cumbersome mid-century alterations, this remarkable property has been thoughtfully brought back to life.
During the renovation, we uncovered original 16th-century frescoes, gracing vaulted ceilings, and bedroom walls, and carefully restored the old, coffered ceilings returning them to their original splendor.
Every intervention was deliberate, aimed at enhancing the home’s authenticity and respecting its historic fabric yet still maintaining a touch of modernity in its attitude and execution.
The interiors now reflect a sophisticated balance of eras, combining antiques and curated design pieces with contemporary elements that complement the architecture. The result is a home that is both elegant and entirely unique. The charm of the past, blended with the simplicity and tranquility of the modern, a perfect blend of historical elegance, and modern Wabisabi.
The garden, once lacking structure and charm, has been completely reimagined into a classic Italian-style garden, designed to echo the grace and character of the residence.
Our goal was clear: to restore the property’s original beauty without imposing drastic changes — a philosophy that guided every step of the process. The owner wanted to blend the beauty of the past with the convenience and modernity of today. The result is a home that is both historically, charming, yet richly modern and sophisticated.
We specialize in helping international clients find, restore, and transform properties in Italy, offering a full-service experience from acquisition to completion.
