The Villa Viscontea is located on a small island in Lecco, where the branch of Lake Como becomes the Adda river.
Through history The Viscontea has been used as a defense fort and as a military garrison. Later it became a fisherman’s house. The building on the island was inhabited until 1956, and then rented out until 1961, when the last owners took possession of it.
The land size of the island is approximately 2 150 square meters, the main building has a size of 238 square meters and needs to be completely renovated. There are also small ancillary buildings in the garden for a size of about 25 square meters.
The island is located only 50 minutes from the international airports of Milan Malpensa and Milan Linate, and just 30 minutes from Bergamo airport. The city of Lecco has a railway station that connects it to Milan in just 45 minutes, and Switzerland is about an hour away.
