Localisation
Via Consiglio Mezzano, 6644 OrselinaCharacteristics
Description
This apartment is ideal for a couple who wants to spend their retirement in a Mediterranean climate south of the Swiss Alps.
The very nicely cut 3.5-room apartment is located in a characteristic Ticino house from the 1930s with 6 apartments and combines individual architectural charm with a view over the lake and its mountain landscape. As soon as you enter the apartment, you can feel the special layout: after the entrance door, 2 steps lead down into the open living and dining area. The two window fronts flood the room with light and offer a view of the large natural stone terrace, the lake, the mountain landscape and the beautifully landscaped garden. The apartment has two bedrooms, one of which is currently used flexibly as a reading room with an adjacent office area – ideal for a home office in the south.
A real highlight is the very generously sized bathroom. Equipped with a modern, walk-in granite shower and a large whirlpool bath, the bathroom becomes a private wellness oasis. The cozy, modern and fully equipped kitchen offers plenty of space for cooking and enjoying meals. A Swedish stove also creates a cozy atmosphere on cold winter days. Directly adjacent to the kitchen is a practical utility room, which provides additional storage space for utensils and comfortably accommodates the washing machine.
Both the kitchen and the living area lead to the versatile garden and terrace area. The natural stone terrace directly in front of the house, facing the lake, is partially covered. This sheltered area allows you to enjoy the beautiful view undisturbed even on colder days or during a summer rain shower. At the same time, the roof provides pleasant shade on hot summer days. The absolute highlight of the private garden area is under a magnificent magnolia tree, a beautiful eye-catcher that offers an idyllic shady spot on hot days. Here, a traditional Ticino stone table invites you to spend unforgettable hours, enjoy atmospheric barbecue evenings or relax on warm summer evenings in good company – here you can experience the true Ticino lifestyle.
There is also plenty of space outside the living areas: a private cellar compartment and an attic compartment offer ample space for belongings. There is a laundry room on each floor. This attractive apartment is completed by two private parking spaces directly at the property; a garage may be rented out nearby.
The property was completely renovated in the 1980s and the apartment has been continuously and high-quality renovated “with love and care,” most recently in 2021, including the terrace areas. The roof was equipped with a PV system in 2025 and a heat pump was installed, which allows you to increase the self-consumption of the self-generated electricity, significantly reducing your energy costs.
Orselina, situated on a hillside in a prime location, is considered one of the exclusive residential communities above Locarno. Here you enjoy absolute peace and quiet, sunshine all year round, and yet you are only a few minutes away from the hustle and bustle of Locarno and Ascona. The village is a sun-drenched balcony with a view and a special, relaxed atmosphere. While the lively city life is pulsating below – in Locarno, which is only a few minutes away. The approximately 700 inhabitants form a warm, colorful community of Ticinese and many people from German-speaking Switzerland who have fulfilled their dream of living in the south here. It is a place for gourmets, those seeking peace and quiet, and nature lovers, with events and culture right on their doorstep. Village life is active, but not intrusive. Culture and conviviality are highly valued here:
Culture in the Parco di Orselina: The local association Pro Orselina regularly transforms the Parco di Orselina into an open-air stage in the summer. Whether it’s atmospheric concerts like “Jazz im Park,” theater performances, or the popular “Cinema al Parco” under the starry sky, cultural life takes place right in the neighborhood.
Traditions and festivals: Local summer festivals with Ticino grill specialties and the autumnal “Colori d’autunno” festival on the Cardada mountain bring the village community together with wine and music.
