Charming residential house with unobstructed lake view and exclusive building reserves
Localisation
Via Stradone 56, 6579 PiazzognaCharacteristics
Description
On the idyllic slope of the left shore of Lago Maggiore, in the charming village of Piazzogna (Gambarogno), lies this inviting ground-floor residence. The most striking feature of this property is the expansive and completely unobstructed lake view, which is permanently protected for all future generations by a large, terraced property in front of the house. As soon as you step inside, the scenery will captivate you: the view leads directly from the entrance, through a classic archway, to the heart of the property – the spacious living room with high ceilings, fireplace and adjoining kitchen.
The floor-to-ceiling windows are designed to let in maximum light and perfectly frame the spectacular panorama of the lake and the lights of Locarno and Ascona across the water. Whether you’re cooking in the functional kitchen or relaxing in the cozy seating area in front of the stone fireplace, the backdrop of Lake Maggiore and the majestic Tessin mountain landscape will be your constant, omnipresent companion.
With two bedrooms, one bathroom, a separate guest toilet, and an additional, flexible gallery level in the guest bedroom, the house offers the perfect layout for a family or as an exclusive holiday home.
Another highlight in the outdoor area is the spacious outdoor seating area, which serves as an extended living room in the summer and provides the perfect stage to enjoy the Mediterranean Ticino lifestyle in complete privacy.
Practical details such as a wooden cellar located directly below the terrace and a utility room at the entrance provide a great deal of comfort in everyday life. However, this property stands out from the crowd due to its exceptional and legally secure development potential, which goes far beyond its current condition. The generous land reserves and favorable building zone allow for flexible expansion of the property to suit your needs: for example, the existing building could be extended by a second floor, which would significantly increase the living space and take the panoramic view to a whole new level. In addition, the land in front of the property is the ideal location for building a private swimming pool or an elegant infinity pool with a direct view of the water. Parking is also a non-issue: in addition to two comfortable carport spaces, there is also an extra parking space available. Located on a quiet side street, this property offers far more than just a ready-to-move-in home – it is a valuable asset with maximum design freedom in one of the most sought-after locations in southern Switzerland.
Here’s a quick overview of the highlights:
- Unobstructed lake view: Unique, permanently protected panorama of Lago Maggiore through the terraced property in front.
- Dreamy outdoor seating area: Spacious terrace with unobstructed views of the water and the opposite lakeside – ideal for those who enjoy the finer things in life.
- Panoramic living area: Bright room thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows that perfectly showcase the lake view, complemented by a cozy fireplace.
- Great expansion potential: Enough land for a house extension or the construction of a pool right next to the outdoor seating area.
- Flexible layout: Ground-floor living with two bedrooms, guest toilet, and an additional gallery level.
- Wooden cellar & storage space: Practical cellar space directly under the terrace as well as a separate equipment room at the entrance.
The charming village of Piazzogna is located on a sun-drenched natural terrace about 360 meters above Lake Maggiore and stands for unspoiled nature, rural tranquility, and a spectacular panoramic view. While the tourist centers on the opposite side of the lake are very lively, Piazzogna has retained the unpretentious character of southern Switzerland and is considered an ideal retreat away from the crowds. The sheltered location provides the village with an exceptionally mild Mediterranean microclimate, which makes the region extremely fertile. The most famous attraction is the nearby Gambarogno Botanical Garden (Parco botanico), which houses one of the largest collections of camellias and magnolias in Europe on over 17,000 square meters. With a population of around 400 inhabitants, Piazzogna offers a warm village community as well as a fine infrastructure with restaurants and shops in the village center. A dense network of hiking trails starts right outside the door. Despite the idyllic tranquility, the accessibility is excellent: the lakeside towns with their beaches and boat docks are only a few minutes away, while the urban centers of Locarno, Ascona, and Bellinzona are easily accessible by car in a short time.
