Casa Panorama Uno is one of the holiday homes available in a small complex (you can find these holiday homes on this website). Please find a general description of the complex below, and please scroll further down for a description of Casa Panorama Uno. The residence was built at the end of the eighteenth century by members of the noble family Brentano-Mezzegra.  The reason for building the mansion is singular, to say the least.  Legend has it that the sons of the Count Brentano-Mezzegra, upset with their father during a family feud, erected a new building just in front of the family palace, to block the view of the lake that the Count so much enjoyed. We don't know how much is history and how much is tale, but something is for sure: the new residence enjoys a spectacular view of the lake, while the imposing building right at its back has been "obscured", so to speak. Throughout the following centuries the building has been used as a monastery and then as a farmhouse.  It was an old country residence still in 2001, when it has been restored and divided into nine holiday apartments. The residence is located in the quiet village of Mezzegra in an uphill position that offers a wide and charming view of the lake, of the town of Bellagio on the opposite shore, and of the surrounding mountains.  Mezzegra is a tiny lakeside village, which has a place in history because it's here that, on April 28th 1945, Benito Mussolini was executed, or assassinated, depending on who tells the story. Swimming Pool The swimming pool is 12.5 meters (40 feet) large by 5 meters (16 feet) long, 1.4 meters (4.6 feet) deep.
