Luxury properties in Arona

Arona, set on the Piedmontese shore of Lake Maggiore, is a town that combines a thousand years of history, natural beauty and residential quality. As the gateway to the lake for those arriving from Milan or Turin, Arona enjoys a strategic location with fast access to the motorway, railway and Milan Malpensa airport (about 30 minutes). This mix of accessibility, scenic landscapes and lively urban life makes it one of the most sought-after destinations for those looking for an exclusive residence on Lake Maggiore.

A town with deep historical and cultural roots

The origins of Arona date back to Roman times, but it was during the Middle Ages and Renaissance that the town became a key player in the history of the lake. The powerful Borromeo family left their mark here, still visible today in architecture and symbolic landmarks. The most iconic is the Colossus of San Carlo Borromeo, a statue over 23 metres tall and one of the largest in the world, which towers above the town as a symbol of devotion and heritage. Walking through the historic centre, with its cobbled alleys, churches and noble palaces, one breathes an authentic atmosphere where tradition meets modernity.

The lakeside and daily life

The lakefront of Arona is one of the most appreciated on Lake Maggiore. Spacious and well-kept, it features gardens, pedestrian areas and open views across to Angera’s Borromeo Fortress and the Alpine peaks. This is where much of the town’s social life unfolds: cafés, restaurants and boutiques line the promenade, creating a lively and cosmopolitan atmosphere. Throughout the year, Arona hosts cultural events, markets and food and wine festivals that enrich its character and highlight its convivial spirit.

A privileged natural setting

Beyond its urban charm, Arona is surrounded by a natural environment of great value. The hills around the town provide spectacular views of the lake and are dotted with elegant residences set in greenery. A short distance away lies the Lagoni di Mercurago Nature Park, a protected area of wetlands, woods and meadows, ideal for walking, hiking and outdoor activities. This close connection between town and nature defines the quality of life in Arona, offering residents the chance to balance work and commitments with moments of relaxation and contemplation.

Prestigious properties and real estate market

The real estate market in Arona is among the most dynamic and prestigious on Lake Maggiore. Historic homes with panoramic gardens, once owned by noble families, stand alongside contemporary residences with large windows and terraces overlooking the water. There are also premium apartments in renovated period buildings and penthouses with generous outdoor spaces that make the most of the lake views. The offer is varied yet selective, appealing to an international clientele seeking elegance, comfort and long-term value.

Living in Arona: between Milan, Malpensa and Switzerland

One of Arona’s strengths is its strategic location. Milan and Switzerland are reachable in less than an hour, while Milan Malpensa Airport is just 30 minutes away, making the town ideal for those who travel frequently or wish to maintain fast connections with major European destinations. At the same time, life in Arona is more serene and relaxed than in the big cities, without sacrificing high-level services such as international schools, modern healthcare and efficient infrastructure.

A refined and authentic lifestyle

Arona offers a sophisticated lifestyle that blends the pleasures of the lake with the cultural and culinary richness of the region.
