Tucked into the hills above Lake Como, Casa Celata is a private lakeside retreat designed to exist in complete harmony with its surroundings. Overlooking one of Italy’s most breathtaking landscapes, the villa combines contemporary elegance with natural simplicity, creating a peaceful atmosphere defined by space, light, and quiet sophistication.
Designed by renowned architect Arturo Montanelli, the villa embraces the beauty of Lake Como through open-plan living spaces, expansive terraces, and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame panoramic lake and hillside views at every turn. Every element has been thoughtfully curated to encourage slow living and meaningful connection, whether enjoying long afternoons beside the infinity pool, dining outdoors overlooking the water, or simply listening to the breeze move through the surrounding trees.
The six beautifully appointed suites reflect the soft natural tones of the lake itself, blending warm neutrals, earthy greens, and muted blues with refined finishes and calming textures. Art plays an important role throughout the residence, with works by acclaimed Italian artist Velasco Vitali adding depth, character, and cultural richness to the villa’s atmosphere.
Blending privacy, design, and effortless comfort, Casa Celata offers a refined Lake Como experience where every detail has been considered and every moment feels deeply connected to the landscape.
