House for sale - 6673 Maggia

In the district of the Municipality of Maggia, in the Giumaglio area, a magnificent Ticino house with 6 + 2 rooms, completely renovated, is for sale, ideal as a primary or secondary residence. This historic house, dating back to the 18th century, extends over two combined plots of 650 sqm each, for a total area of 1270 sqm. The property includes a large garden with a "biotope" pond, a pergola with a stone table, and a vineyard.

The total renovation, carried out in 2012, included the complete refurbishment of electrical and sanitary systems, the roof with new beams and insulation, tiles, installation of new Velux windows, as well as a "sponge" repainting to maintain the charm of the antique. The current state of the property is optimal, with a living area of about 210 sqm divided over three floors.

On the ground floor, there is a large eat-in kitchen with a fireplace, renovated in 2023 and equipped with two Gaggenau ovens, dishwasher, large fridge, induction cooktop, a dining room, a living room with ancient beams and a stone fireplace, a service WC, and a laundry room. On the first floor, accessible via a wide staircase, there are three bedrooms, two large terraces, and two bathrooms (one with a bathtub and the other with a shower). The second floor, with sloping ceilings and insulation, houses a large bedroom with Velux, a hobby room with Velux, and an attic. In the basement, there are two large "grotto" cellars with vaulted ceilings.

The property is equipped with an efficient heating system, which includes three air-to-air heat exchangers of 750W, which function both as heating and air conditioning, electric radiators in the rooms, and two wood stoves with "open fire" in the living room and kitchen. The perimeter walls made of plastered stone (70 cm) are highly insulating, and the external frames in PVC "fake wood" with double thermal glazing contribute to comfort. The internal frames are made of larch and walnut. In 2022, a photovoltaic system with 30 panels of 12kWp was installed, allowing for an energy saving of 35-37%.

The unique character of the house is enhanced by its location in the nucleus of Giumaglio, with a small vineyard of "americana" on the north side and a vineyard of 170 Merlot vines to the southeast, producing about 500 kg of fine grapes (about 350 bottles). The house is accessible by car up to the door and benefits from excellent daily sunlight, even in the winter months. Essential services, such as shops, bank, post office, pharmacy, and doctors, are only 4 minutes by car, while Locarno and Ascona are about 15-20 minutes away.

It is possible to rent private parking nearby for Fr. 60/month. Alternatively, an adjacent property, renovated and suitable for garage-storage, is available for Fr. 75,000.--, in addition to the possibility of purchasing a building plot of about 650 sqm (now a vineyard) for Fr. 215,000.--.

The sale price of the main property is Fr. 995,000.--. An unmissable opportunity for those who wish for a house rich in history and charm, with a unique atmosphere and in a delightful location.
