Villa Scala Menaggio is an elegantly restored historic property dating to 1850, in Menaggio near Lake Como's main attractions. Blending period charm with modern comfort, it offers two spacious suites with walk-in wardrobes and premium baths, two guest rooms with private baths, and a 28 sqm independent studio with entrance, kitchen and bath.

A standout feature is the breakfast room, set within a former 16th-century convent. Also included: a generous reception area, a 28 sqm professional kitchen, guest bath, cellar, and laundry -- enhanced by eight independently controlled heat pump/AC units and eco-friendly water heating.

Outside: a landscaped garden, patio and balcony, outdoor shower, gated access, and multi-car parking. Utilities are already in place for a future pool.

Just 5 km from Villa Carlotta and near Menaggio's lakefront, restaurants and ferries, this is a compelling opportunity as a boutique hotel, private residence, or flexible investment.
