This magnificent 6.5-room villa, in a contemporary interpretation of the Mediterranean style, is located in a prime sunny hillside position overlooking the lake in the villa district of Brione sopra Minusio. The garden on the 808-square-meter plot offers plenty of sun, tranquility, and absolute privacy. The building originates from a time when space was not a scarce commodity and generosity was not a foreign word. Building substance, design language, and functionality are united here. Despite its considerable dimensions, the property appears reserved and discreet.
Come in. A garden path paved with natural granite slabs leads you to the property. Here, on the ground floor garden level, is the spacious entrance area. Upon entering, the first things you notice are the magnificent, slightly winding stairs made of solid marble, which richly adorn the foyer and make an important statement – this property plays in the Champions League. At this level, the room program is very diverse and special. Thus, there is a room (usable as a bedroom/hobby/studio); a separate toilet. A private area for your valued guests includes a 2.5-room apartment with an open living-kitchen area, bedroom; bathroom with shower/WC; covered patio with access to the picturesque garden.
The special feature on this level is the indoor pool. It is the absolute highlight of this exquisite property – an 8 x 4m large and 1.5m deep heated pool with a counter-current swimming system, shower/WC, changing room, relaxation/fitness room. Simply slide the glass elements to the side – the pool landscape merges with the fantastic lake-mountain panorama. 365-day holiday feeling pure!
On this floor, a laundry room and the technical rooms are also unobtrusively integrated.
Climb the marble stairs to the upper floor. Here is the heart of the house. The remarkably large living area with fireplace welcomes you with its loft-like living atmosphere. A magnificent kitchen equipped with state-of-the-art appliances and a dining room with elaborately custom-made glass cabinets are a real eye-catcher. Pastel walls and elegant gray granite create a natural ambiance.
On this floor, there is also another bedroom. As well as a bathroom belonging to the bedroom with shower, WC, and double washbasin.
A particular attraction is the terrace with a covered lounge adjoining the living-dining area. An impressive natural landscape of wooded mountain ridges, the endless azure blue of Lake Maggiore, and spectacular sunsets opens up… At the latest at this moment, you will know – that's where I want to be. Grilling, receiving guests, having convivial conversations with friends, or enjoying a glass of wine together.
The house and the indoor pool are heated by an air-heat pump. The photovoltaic system for electricity production is also installed.
A wide double garage, two additional parking spaces, and various cellar compartments are at your disposal.
The status of a holiday residence is possible.
