In Ossuccio, in the splendid setting of Tremezzina and the Comacina Island, Villa Leoni is a monument of enormous architectural and historical value set in one of the most evocative natural landscapes in the world.
Villa Leoni is an important testimony of the Larian rationalist period. It was built in the early 1940s with solutions that enhance the relationship between the building and the surrounding landscape, creating environments suitable for hosting private ceremonies, meetings, photoshoots and exclusive holidays. Its dominant position and its large green spaces shaded by majestic maritime pines, olive trees guarantee total privacy for its residents.
The property, surrounded by a wonderful private park of 6400 sq m and large parking area, includes the main villa, a second independent villa and an annex for the caretaker as well as the panoramic swimming pool with hydromassage.
The main building takes advantage of the wonderful view of the lake and its southern orientation with large windows in the living room on the ground floor, the entrance with a double flight of stairs and the bedrooms on the first floor.
The body of the villa, entirely built with local materials, houses in addition to the large entrance (location frequently chosen for wedding ceremonies) the central hall, the dining room, the living room with period fireplace, the kitchen and the study, hallway and bathroom. The whole floor overlooks a 40 sq m porch and a 162 sq m patio.
The first floor houses five finely furnished bedrooms, three bathrooms and a large 36 sq m terrace overlooking the lake. The top floor includes a single large space of 115 sq m with a 71 sq m lakefront terrace. Spa and fitness room occupy the basement as well as an elegant tasting room with stove and laundry.
The last entire renovation has returned Villa Leoni to its former glory, the villa has been classified as a historic monument while maintaining the walls painted in soft pastel colours and the floors made of black and white mosaic.
Inside the complex there is also the exclusive Junior Villa with small garden, used as a bridal suite by guests . It consists, on the ground floor, of the entrance, kitchen / area dining room and on the first floor living room with balcony, hallway, bedroom and bathroom. The Junior Villa also includes a large garage of 36 sq m.
Finally, the property includes a picturesque 32 sq m outbuilding comprising two rooms plus a bathroom for the exclusive use of the caretaker. Equipped with every comfort, Villa Leoni is a versatile property and the ideal place to spend holidays focused on relaxation, sport, culture, food and wine

Ossuccio is an ancient village whose history merges with that of the Comacina Island. It overlooks the so-called Zoca de l'Oli, a gulf of Lake Como famous for the remarkable tranquillity of its waters. This is an area that enjoys a mild climate to favour the flowering of Mediterranean essences, but also a land rich in history, legends and monuments such as the famous Romanesque bell tower, located at the oratory of Santa Maria Maddalena in front of Villa Leoni. Ossuccio is the perfect place for those who are in search of a quiet spot and want to enjoy the beautiful landscapes of the lake close to Como and its monuments, restaurants and shops.
