This charming home stands in 2000 square metres of gardens and boasts lovely views of Lake Garda. Alongside dreamy vistas, plants and trees, you’ll find a private pool and a delightful alfresco dining area with a barbecue. Inside, you’ll find antique-style decor, including chandeliers and a rather grand staircase. Best of all, this home is just 850 metres from Gardone Riviera, where you can hop on a ferry or visit local restaurants. The beach is a five-minute walk, too.
