"La Vescogna" is an old italian mansion that dates back to the 17th century and it is an extraordinary example of a country-stately house located on the homonym hillock (400 m) in the superior administrative division of Calco town, in the heart of the green Brianza land, 15 km away from Como lake. The house enjoys a spectacular panoramic view over the valley as far as the city of Milan, which is only 40 km away, easily reachable either by car or by train (nearest railway station only 1.5 km away) and it is famous for its luxurious shopping, renowned museums and exhibitions and active nightlife.
The renowned towns of Bellagio, Varenna, Tremezzo and Menaggio are easily reachable from the town of Lecco, located on the east shore of the lake, only 15 km from La Vescogna, either by driving along the lake’s shore or crossing it with a ferry (“Navigazione Laghi”).
The advantageous location of the mansion makes it possible to learn more and discover this side of the Lombardy, the richest region of Italy: beside the proximity with Lecco, a city located by the lakeshore of the Como lake, the house is located close to other interesting attractions: the beautiful and old town of Bergamo Alta; the city of Monza, with its famous Autodromo where the Formula 1 Grand Prix takes place every September; the prestigious Golf Club Milano with its 27 hollows and a bunch of other Golf Clubs such as Golf Club Lecco and Brianza Country Club, all easily reachable within an hour. The Milan Linate airport is only 40 km away whereas the Orio Al Serio airport is only 30 km.

La Vescogna is characterized by simple and dour shapes on the front facade that remind of its having been a castle of an Italian noble family (Calchi family) in the XIV century, situated by the Adda river, on the border between the Dukedom of Milan and the Venetian Republic. On the other side, the house is rather baroque and it faces the south with its typical italian garden, constituted of three different terraces, each with its flight, balcony and marble decorations, not to mention its boxwood being shaped with topiary art and those prestigious trees typical of the “XIX century romantic garden”. In the most repaired but best located side, just a few steps away from the amazing pool (25 meters length), there is an ancient stable shed that is now used as a club-house.
