Description
Property Summary
Nestled along the upper stretch of the Ionian coast road that winds from Gallipoli to Santa Maria di Leuca, Villa Pajare Francesi is an elegant and exclusive vacation rental set within approximately 6,500 square metres of lush Mediterranean parkland in Castrignano Del Capo, Italy. The property is composed of 2 independent units, known as Pajare, whose facades are crafted in local stone and seamlessly integrated into the surrounding landscape through white porticos adorned in a refined minimalist style. The name itself draws from a centuries-old tradition, as "pajara" refers to a rural dry stone construction typical of this region, lending the villa an authentically Salentine character that is as culturally rich as it is visually striking. Guests benefit from a reliable wireless Wi-Fi internet connection throughout their stay, while the expansive yard, shaped by terraced gardens, an ancient olive grove, and low stone walls, creates a serene and private retreat that perfectly frames the breathtaking panoramic sea views the property is celebrated for.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Pajare Francesi are a true expression of Mediterranean beauty and thoughtful design. The park, extending across approximately 6,500 square metres, is defined by terraced areas covered in typical local vegetation, where a charming old olive grove blends harmoniously with low stone walls that delineate each zone and amplify the sweeping panoramic views. Aromatic herbs are scattered throughout the various areas, filling the air with a distinctly Mediterranean fragrance and contributing to an atmosphere of complete tranquillity. The large veranda, oriented to capture the sea view, is furnished with a table, chairs, and a comfortable outdoor seating area, making it the ideal setting in which to savour the spectacular sunsets over the sea. The linear stone facades and outdoor furnishings are unified by the white porticos that run through the property, maintaining a consistent and elegant aesthetic across all exterior spaces. Please note that photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ from what you observe upon arrival.
The modern, regular-shaped swimming pool measures 4.50 by 10.50 metres, with a varying depth ranging from 1 metre to 1.60 metres, and features a large step running along its entire length to facilitate comfortable access to the water. The pool is non-heated, purified with chlorine, and will be open from the first Saturday in May until the first Saturday of October. Positioned close to the main Pajara, it offers an ideal vantage point from which to admire the expanse of typical vegetation set against the boundless scenery of the sea. The generous, level solarium area surrounding the pool is equipped with sunbeds and chairs that echo the minimalist style found throughout the outdoor furnishings. An outdoor cold-water shower is conveniently located adjacent to this area.

Located in Fontanile, this magnificent two-floor plastered villa extends over 700 sq m and is set within a luxuriant 3-hectare park that frames the property with breathtaking views of rolling hills and sprawling vineyards. The warm tones of wood and terracotta characterise the interior furnishings, where classic-style accessories harmonise beautifully with contemporary design elements, creating an atmosphere of refined sophistication. The villa is distinguished by three elegant patios adorned with brick columns supporting beautifully sloping roofs with exposed tiles, all in perfect harmony with the colours of the surrounding Monferrato landscape.

Description
Property Summary
Nestled on the shores of Lake Maggiore in Ispra, Italy, Villa Eden is a truly singular vacation rental that stands apart for its extraordinary history and architectural character. Built on the remains of a historic 19th-century furnace, the property pays homage to its industrial past through its distinctive octagonal rooftops, which mirror the silhouette of the original kilns. Commanding a panoramic position overlooking the lake, the villa combines timeless elegance with modern comfort, featuring frescoed ceilings, antique furnishings, and spacious octagonal living areas that create an atmosphere of refined sophistication. The property has undergone a check-up carried out by one of the technical managers to guarantee the correspondence of the description, the accessories listed, and their state of operation and maintenance. Guests benefit from private parking for up to 4 cars within the fully fenced grounds, as well as Wi-Fi internet access throughout the property. The villa is enveloped by a lush yard of approximately 3,500 square meters, thoughtfully landscaped with rose arches, a small citrus grove, and jasmine vines, offering a verdant and serene setting that perfectly complements the lakeside panorama.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Eden are as remarkable as its interiors, offering a seamless blend of natural beauty and curated design. The expansive flat garden of approximately 3,500 square meters extends on both sides of the villa and is completely fenced for privacy and security. On one side of the property, accessible directly from 2 of the ground floor bedrooms, private relaxation areas and a dedicated play area for children provide peaceful retreats within the grounds. On the opposite side, the swimming pool takes center stage in a panoramic setting approximately 50 meters from the villa, near the main entrance and the external staircase leading to the first floor. The pool is non-heated, irregularly shaped, and measures approximately 15 x 6 meters with a depth varying from 1 to 2.20 meters. It is covered in PVC, accessed via a Roman staircase, and equipped with a chlorine purification system as well as both indoor and outdoor lighting. A small trampoline is also available nearby. The sunbathing area surrounding the pool is partly paved with stone and partly laid with lawn, and is furnished with sun loungers, deckchairs, and umbrellas for leisurely afternoons in the sun. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October. Adjacent to the pool, a barbecue area with a furnished pergola creates an inviting setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. On the first floor, 2 sweeping panoramic terraces extend the living space outdoors: the main terrace, measuring approximately 200 square meters, is partially shaded by a pergola and overlooks the lake, while the second terrace offers a privileged view of the octagonal rooftops and the Mother Island. The garden is enriched by rose arches, a small citrus grove, and jasmine vines that gracefully decorate the external staircase leading to the first floor. Please be aware that photo shoots are usually carried out in spring, so the colors and blooms of the gardens, lawns, and park may differ from what you encounter upon arrival.
Unit Layout
Villa Eden is spread across 2 levels connected by both internal and external staircases, and is designed to accommodate up to 8 guests across 4 double bedrooms and 4 en-suite bathrooms. On the ground floor, the entrance opens through a small hallway into a series of elegantly appointed spaces, including a study with a library, an octagonal living room with frescoed ceilings, a dining area, a sitting room, and an ornamental fireplace. A corridor leads to 3 double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom — 2 featuring shower facilities and 1 equipped with a jacuzzi. The octagonal master bedroom is also located on the ground floor and includes an en-suite bathroom with shower and direct access to the garden. Additionally, 2 external service bathrooms are available on this level, though they are not internally connected to the main rooms. On the first floor, accessed via the internal staircase, an octagonal kitchen with a dining table serves as the heart of the upper level, with direct access to the 2 panoramic terraces. All 4 bedrooms are equipped with air conditioning.

The property features air conditioning in all 4 bedrooms, providing a cool and pleasant environment during warmer months. For cooler periods, heating is available upon request.

Outdoor entertaining is made easy with a barbecue in the dedicated garden area, perfect for alfresco meals in the fresh lakeside air. Each bedroom benefits from its own private patio or direct access to the garden or terraces, offering personal outdoor space for relaxation. Entertainment is well catered for with satellite TV, allowing guests to enjoy a wide selection of channels throughout their stay. Pets are welcome at the property, subject to prior authorization from the owner, as detailed in the relevant section. The villa is connected to Wi-Fi internet, and private parking for up to 4 vehicles is available within the fenced grounds.
Other Information
Villa Eden is managed with the attentive presence of on-site caretakers who reside in a completely independent wing of the property, accessible via a separate entrance. They are available to guests for any needs or requests throughout the stay, while guests retain exclusive use of the park and the swimming pool at all times. Pets are welcome at the property; however, their admission must be authorized in advance by the owner. Guests are required to communicate the number of animals, their size, and breed prior to arrival to obtain the necessary approval. The rental rate includes utilities such as electricity, water, gas for kitchen use and hot water, as well as weekly linen changes and both an initial and a final cleaning of the property. The rate also includes the Zer0Dep Guarantee, meaning guests do not pay a security deposit either at balance or upon arrival. This guarantee provides EuropAssistance coverage in the event of accidental damage caused to the property during the stay, up to a maximum of 1,500.00€ and subject to the restrictions provided.
Distances and Attractions
Villa Eden enjoys a privileged position in Ispra, a charming town on the western shore of Lake Maggiore in northern Italy, an area historically known for its furnace heritage and stunning natural scenery. The lake itself is one of the most celebrated destinations in the Italian Lake District, offering guests the opportunity to explore its picturesque villages, elegant promenades, and scenic ferry routes. The surrounding area provides easy access to a wealth of attractions, including the Borromean Islands, among which the Mother Island — visible directly from the villa's second terrace — stands as one of the most iconic landmarks of the lake.
