Experience eight centuries of history in absolute peace, between living stone and silences broken only by the forest.
In the heart of the ancient village of Ronco di Cannobio, where time seems to stand still, stands Antica Villa Branca: a historic house overlooking Lake Maggiore, which for centuries belonged to the Branca family and today finely restored to offer exclusive hospitality. Here the living stone, the frescoes and the large seventeenth-century fireplace meet modern comforts, creating a rare balance between history, nature and technology.
Spread over three levels, the villa of about 210 square meters comfortably accommodates families and groups of friends looking for an authentic, relaxing place off the beaten track of mass tourism. You will find 3 double bedrooms furnished with classic contemporary taste, a bright living room with open kitchen and long panoramic balcony with breathtaking views of Lake Maggiore and the roofs of the village, and a room with a historic 17th century fireplace where an ancient billiard table stands out, the real social heart of the house. The interiors are completed by 3 modern and functional bathrooms and a relaxing room with TV, ideal for reading or sharing a movie at the end of the day.
The kitchen is fully equipped with oven, microwave and dishwasher, perfect for those who want to experience the house as a real private residence, cooking and dining with family or friends. Outside, a private garden awaits you, in harmony with the rural character of the property, with an outdoor dining area and a beautiful view of the lake, the mountains and the forest behind: the ideal place for slow breakfasts, aperitifs at sunset and dinner with barbecue under the stars.
Antica Villa Branca underwent a major restoration completed in 2025, which made it possible to further recover the historic structure and integrate cutting-edge technologies for comfort and connectivity. The villa has air conditioning, washing machine, TV, ultrafast WiFi and private parking, while maintaining an intimate, quiet atmosphere that is deeply connected to the surrounding nature.
The house is the perfect retreat for those who want to disconnect from everyday chaos and regenerate in the peace of a historic village, without sacrificing the convenience of a fast and reliable Starlink connection for the moments when it is needed.
The position guarantees absolute silence, broken only by the rustling of the forest and the call of birds. The village and the villa are easily accessible with a private elevator or, alternatively, along a panoramic mule track of about 500 meters from the private car park. Given the historic nature of the house, with original stone stairs and paths, it is particularly suitable for guests in good physical shape who appreciate the authenticity of a period place.
The area is a paradise for lovers of trekking, trail running and mountain biking, with breathtaking trails that start directly from the outskirts of Ronco, including steep climbs, technical descents and views of the surrounding mountains. At the center of a dense network of well-marked CAI trails, it is located at the entrance of the Val Grande National Park, offering excursions of all levels to explore wild nature and ancient villages.
The history of the house dates back to 1300, when some of the walls were built directly on the rock, and spans centuries of events between Guelphs, Ghibellines, noble families and periods of abandonment and rebirth. Today the villa has been brought back to life with great care, keeping alive the spirit of the place and its “vital magic”: a place to slow down, disconnect from the daily bustle and let yourself be surrounded by peace, serenity and authentic beauty.
Antica Villa Branca is the ideal choice if you want to:
• Discover Lake Maggiore starting from an ancient and panoramic village.
• Live in a real historic home, without sacrificing modern comfort
• Give yourself days of silence, nature and active adventure between trekking and mountain biking
