Villa Fontanelle, Heritage villa in Moltrasio, Italy

The four-story yellow villa stands directly on the shore of Lake Como, featuring three acres of ornamental gardens and 800 meters of water frontage.

Lord Charles Currie constructed the villa in the early 1800s after falling in love with Lake Como during his visit to Italy.

Italian fashion designer Gianni Versace acquired the property in 1977 and transformed it into a neoclassical residence filled with hundreds of oil paintings.

The villa includes three separate cottages, a tennis court, and a private mooring for boats accessing Lake Como.

Russian restaurateur Arkady Novikov purchased the estate in 2008 for 33 million euros, following its previous ownership by Gianni Versace.
