Luxury properties on Lake Orta
A secret gem of nature, art and spirituality
Intimate, poetic and immersed in authentic beauty, Lake Orta is one of the most charming destinations in Northern Italy. Less known than the larger lakes, yet loved for this very reason by a reserved clientele, it is a heartfelt choice for those seeking an exclusive retreat where landscape, culture and silence coexist in perfect balance. Its calm waters reflect historic villages, green hills and elegant residences that seem suspended in time. Here, Prestige International Real Estate offers a refined selection of stone villas, lakeside homes and panoramic apartments for those who wish to live surrounded by beauty, far from the crowd.
A land of discreet charm
Lake Orta stretches between the provinces of Novara and Verbania, in a natural setting of exceptional harmony. Its small size is one of its great qualities: it allows you to fully experience the territory at a slow pace, appreciating every view, every detail. The Island of San Giulio, in the center of the lake, holds one of Italy’s most evocative places, blending spirituality, Romanesque architecture and silence. The village of Orta San Giulio, with its stone squares, baroque buildings and flowering alleys, is the heart of the region – the ideal destination for a prestigious home in a quiet, refined setting.
A unique property offering
The properties available on Lake Orta stand out for their authenticity, connection to tradition and scenic value. Villas with direct access to the lake, renovated farmhouses with local materials, charming apartments with lake-view terraces: every property offered by Prestige International Real Estate is carefully selected for quality and exclusivity. The area is ideal both for those seeking a primary residence in a serene setting and for those looking for a valuable second home in one of the most protected and unspoiled areas of Piedmont.
Lifestyle and quality of living
Lake Orta offers a unique lifestyle, where luxury is understated and time takes on a more human rhythm. With Michelin-starred restaurants, boutique hotels and nature trails, each season can be lived to the fullest. The region is well connected to Milan, Malpensa Airport, Lake Maggiore and Switzerland, making it an increasingly popular choice for international buyers looking for an authentic Italian destination with long-term value.
The most exclusive villages
Alongside Orta San Giulio, there are charming locations like Pettenasco, Miasino, Pella and Omegna, each offering a different yet equally enchanting atmosphere. Some villas are set on hills within centuries-old parks with sweeping views of the lake, while others lie in the historic heart of the villages, among old stones and wisteria blooms. Pettenasco is prized for its tranquility and lake views, Miasino for its aristocratic villas, Omegna for its vibrant culture. In each, one breathes a refined blend of history, nature and elegance.
A secure and valuable investment
The real estate market on Lake Orta is solid and steadily growing. The limited availability of luxury properties and the presence of landscape restrictions prevent overbuilding, preserving the area’s natural and architectural charm.

For those looking to invest in a timeless home of enduring value, Lake Orta is an excellent choice.
