Stresa

Stresa is a small town on the western shore of Lake Maggiore in Piedmont, northern Italy, set against hills that rise behind the waterfront and facing the Borromean Islands. It is known for its lakeside promenade, Belle Époque villas and hotels, and a mild climate that has long made it a destination for visitors and second-home owners. Property here ranges from apartments near the centre and waterfront to villas and houses on the surrounding slopes, with lake views and a quiet, established character.
